Selling my "05 c55 - Diamond Black

Will consider reasonable offers, or keep the car if no takers for this gem.

Yea man, that price is pretty high, I bought my car will similar miles 1.5 years ago for 2k less than what you're asking for. At the time it had BiX, black birds eye, chrome AMG wheels, and CLK grill + flat badge. Since then added a few things....

If we all collude and ask for higher prices, think that will drive prices up?

Good luck with the sale. That is a clean C55, and defs worth the money IMO! What other car looks like that, drives like that, has those features for 25k??

*** Don't think that'll work in this market?? ***
Mileage is low for sure BUT he's about 4 K higher than the silver one being asked and the mileage doesn't give the black one that kind of uptick in value. $22 -23 is probably within the realm of reason. Almost $26???

you're asking too much for the car. i bought mine with the same miles and features and pretty much brand new condition with CPO warranty for 25,500 in october of 2009.

I'll go as low as $24,500 or so, but figured I'll have it on Auto trader at that price for a while to see if I get any takers. It's so much car for the money, blows my mind how low the market is for it, given the junk out there that sells for same price.

Why do people cover their license plates in for sale ads? All day long you drive around and thousands of people see your plates.

I'm not asking to be obnoxious, just wondering if there is a reason for this and I am missing it when I sell a car.

For all of those that have not been notified in the past:

MBWorld.org's policy regarding "for sale" or classified ads is this; do not post disparaging remarks about the OP's price. Let the market rule. We are allowed our opinions but, sometimes civility requires we keep it to ourselves.

Unfortunately, over time, the Moderators here have had to issue numerous infractions for this practice of editorializing. Repeat offenders will be on probation or suspension.

Please do not add commentary unless it is positive, in other peoples classifieds.
