I found via internet at local MB dealer, sold new in August, traded in late October. Brilliant Silver with Ash interior, I got it with 3.9k on the clock, it came fully decked out all options including NAV plus, 100k extended warr, early warning lojack, and some $950 type of custom paint protection I am not familiar with.....for 59.9 OTD, did I do ok?

I have no idea about the price. As long as you like the car, dont think about it. Also, you already bought it. Just have fun with it 
So, what mod are you planning to do if you dont mind me asking?

Couple of people have done wheel/tire, I got some cheapy 19"s and am having my resonator removed. I know there is a chip available and if you really want to go for it Kleeman has a couple of packages to contemplate. Congrats on the car and post some pics newb!

Yeah mine is the Ash color interior. I was not a fan of it until I saw it, its very striking, only thing though the floor mats are way to light in color, and soil quickly. Has any one found aftermarket mats yet for the C55? MB of Laguna Niguel is out of stock for some time on AMG mats for C55.
