That's obviously a typo... It was probably supposed to read $59,981 unless that car comes with a brief case in the trunk with $50K in it...

Maybe it comes with $50k of "crack in the back" and is a very smart way of distribution.

AMG C-class cars have probably the worst resale value of any of the other Benz model on the market... oh yeah the CLK55 is probably still worse...

is that just a marketing gimmic saying "here look at me" or does the car have Renntech or Kleemann on it?

I don't see how a ridiculous Ad like that could help that dealership...

Here is it officially. I just called them to confirm... It is a misprint. I talked to someone in sales and the first thing he says to me is uh uh uh uh (like what you say when you shake your head) and then says to me it is a misprint. It is actually like 56K and it has about 3K miles on it.

Very true. It also creates alot of attention for people that are looking for that specific car wondering whats so special about that one, so they call, just what a dealer hopes for, a potenial customer that might not have called if they stated the real price online. Now you got the salesmen on the phone and he wont let you hang up, asking you what i can do to earn your business etc...
