C32 AMG,
2004 Stock C32 - What's it worth?

Wondering what you think my 2004 C32 is worth. It's completely stock with about 44K miles on it, and in great condition. It has pretty much every option but the command. I listed it on Autotrader for $19,995 a few weeks ago but I've only had one serious call on it. It also has a platinum extended warranty to 93K or 2012. Do you think the price reasonable?

it's pretty fair, but I think you'd get around $18k at the end. not a great time to sell the car anyway, so you gotta be patient.

yup, really bad time to sale a vehicle.. like frank said, be patient. someone will land.. id say between $16k-$18k. i just hated when someone is looking for a quick sale and puts a really low asking price just to get rid of it.. people see that and it brings down the value of our cars.. ive seen c32's with 90k miles listed for $11,000..

Stick with NADA/KBB as your price point because that is what most buyers will be using as a reference. Start at or just below book and go from there.
Agreed, people making a quick sale are giving false value of the cars worth.

I seen a few on sale for around the same price so I don't think your price is off really. The only reason why I wouldn't is because I have seen 55's for about 22k in cali and they can get more HP and have MHI phone capabilities/better steering wheel. I was expecting to pay around 15k for a C32. Good luck!

C32 AMG,
LOL That's pretty funny. Not sure whether to laugh or cry though... It's not so funny when I look at my 401K statement.

Hey thanks everyone for your input.
