want to buy a C36 AMG

whats up guys? in the near future i plan on getting myself a nice C36 AMG, no specific year just one thats been well cared for at the right price. What are common problems with these cars? what to look for? im also a mechanic so working on them isnt a problem, and my dealer just happens to sell mercedes benz. Does the C36 make a good, reliable daily driver? what kinda aftermarket companies are there and what kinda longevity can you get out of them before they call it quits? I have a 1990 BMW 325i and think a C36 would be a nice upgrade, kinda tired of E36 M3s, see too many of them and want a nice fast, comfortable car for crusing and daily driving.

Not sure if you are interested in a nice Black/Black C36, but since I'm selling mine why not let a potential buyer know about it! all of the details can be found here: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...ice=&cardist=0

Feel free to send me an email @ alescobar@yahoo.com.

That's actually a very fair price for that car. I have a red '95 with over 100k miles (stout and reliable daily driver) and, personally, wouldn't consider parting with mine anywhere near $13k.

By the way, don't mean to drop any dimes but if you want to replace that fog light, it ain't gunna be cheap. That's an HWA part, not a simple MB fog light.
