Low-mileage C32 for sale - is the price right?
I spotted a very low-mileage (38k) C32 in my local market (SoCal), but I'm pretty certain the $19k asking price is most likely a few grand too high, even in the most immaculate of conditions. The link to the listing is below.

Is $14/15k a reasonable offer or are they justified in asking that amount given the small # of clean, low-mileage C32's out there?
Thanks for your support!

That car just sold 12/19 on bringatrailer.com, no reserve, $10k. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...kompressor-11/
I'd say it's worth $10k.

Pay no mind to the prices on BaT, the site is an auction. No comparison. GL!

I think the C32 / C55 are very undervalued. Auction site or not - it was available to the public, no reserve and it sold what the market was willing to pay. Presumably - the car hasn't changed, similar mileage, etc. Values are less now across the board. Why would it be worth $4-5K more?

I saw this listing a few weeks back. A few months ago they had a mint 2002 ML55 with 52k miles but they had it listed for 22k and that is way too much. I think they price them high so that any interested party can haggle them to a solid price. They also had a mint w210 e55 or w208 clk55 (it was one of those) for like 15k.
I am very surprised to see it sell for 10k in that condition and mileage. I would’ve expected at least 12k and at most 15k.
OP if you’re looking for a clean example just be patient. Someone will list their mint 32 in the future at an awesome price and I would say don’t be afraid of mileage unless you’re really looking for a low mileage example. I would be too afraid to drive a mint one.
I think the market for these old amg’s is on the rise but for now they should stay low. To us owners and people who actually like them, they are incredibly undervalued but most car enthusiasts are more interested in a manual car.
Here is an awesome example that I would have jumped on if I were still looking for one: https://offerup.co/keNZpmska7
