Nice car, well maintained, BUT you're probably on the high side. I'd say "whatever the market will bear." If you can get 19 K, good for you, if not, theres always negotiation!!! Problem is, a used Black 2004 with 22 K miles was purchased last year for $20 K.

Very clean ride with nice options! I hope you can get close to $19k, but people seem to be selling these at rediculously low prices. AMG owners practically giving their used cars away have killed the market price.

Gl on the sale-I see it more as a $14-$15k sale price unit (MMR on these-I know its a wholesale #-but there are more and more consumers and dealers selling/buying at these auctions now) is $7k with 67k miles on them-avg condition.
Clean car-do all the C32's have the AMG on the back seats? Nice!

i bet you could sell the car for more if you just waited 2yrs for the economy to pick up then if you sold it now. Even with the depreciation.

well, just put it as the price you want and go from there. asking on here is not very accurate since most forum members here knows how to find a good deal other wise they wouldn't be here.

Yeah, I'll give it some time. I bought the car used, and have had it for almost 4years. At the time it was important to find a quality used car and i was willing to pay a little more. It took awhile to find a local one with low miles and with as many options... Now im face with a market that only wants a good deal! But in no way do i feel stuck.

Thanks for all the positive posts!

Yea it could, but you can put a bluetooth module in that holster which would be a better idea if you want a hands free system.

Well yeah when you initially buy for that price it helps. Just 3 years ago these were $30k+ cars. Such is the nature of the beast....

Geeze, I keep hoping that the rarity of these cars will someday cause a rebound in price.



I'll just head back to bed now and keep on dreaming.......

Look on the bright side Mr. Briteside, you could have purchased an SL 63 or 65 for upper 100 range ($175 +) for a car now worth about $55-70 K, on a percentage basis, a much greater loss than what you suffered.

I wish you could see it, it was owned by a girl that drove it many miles on the freeway everyday. The car runs great the service records are clean and the interrior is perfect not a stain anywhere and it has light gray interior. It was very well taken care of. I had a co worker offer me 25k for it and I declined.
