c55 prices dropping?
is it just me or are the prices for a c55 steadily decreasing? you guys think prices will drop with the introduction of the c63? if so, how much? i wouldn't be surprised to see these going for 27-30k by june next year with 30xxx miles

speaking of the c63, when is it going to be on the market in the states?

All euro cars are dropping like dead flies. Get used to it. I'm taking advantage of it to buy a 80K+ car for less than 1/2 price w/ 15k miles.

You guys in the States are lucky!!
Here in S. Korea where I am working now, a 2002 C32 with good mileage is about $40K.

C55's are ultra rare and still command a hefty premium.
I know of only 2 in Korea.

The pricing numbers you mentioned sound a lot like the RS6s we were just talking about awhile back...

I guess we'll just (patiently) wait to see what you get in a month's time!

Joe!

Thanks for the offer...
But I'm afraid with shipping + import duty + VAT and registration fees the $28K car will turn into the $40k car here in Korea again.

I hate protectionism. . .
