is this to many miles for c55?
I am looking at purchases a c55 and wondering what miles to stick around. I have seen a couple around 60k but found a really good deal on one with 83k. is this to many? and are these cars reliable?

extremely reliable. neither of those are high mileage, the motor is just starting to break in. we have quite a few members on here with over 100k miles and one (mike kuriger) with 150k+. good luck

I'm looking at both and trying to compare which would be a better car reliability wise. I like both but for the money if the c55 is more reliable I'd rather stick with that

mileage isn't too high as long as it was maintained properly/timely... and if u did pose the same question regarding high mileage e55's, you'll still have better luck and lower maintenance with the naturally aspirated c55.
