White C43 Thinking of selling?

I have a 98 Glacier White C43 with a black interior 107k miles. I am thinking of selling it, Extended warranty until 116k.

What do you guys think I can get for this car? Also if any one is interested PM me. Thanks

Look forward to your feedback!

I bought an identical (color/year) one last fall with 70k miles, in nice shape. I paid $13,500. The seller was an MB salesman (his personal car) and prsumably had a good idea what it was worth.

His original asking price was $17,000 and it sat for about four months.

yes, 12-14.5 (high end for near mint condition) with that mileage. Not sure how hot the market is for white cars, though they seem less common than silver or black (speaking of the C43 in particular).

Thanks for your replies, Im in the process of replacing all the brakes(Rotors and Pads) on the car(gonna run me about 1,500 and putting new tires on it) Do you guys this this will raise the value of the car or should I not even bother doing this? Thanks

I think it would raise the value of the car slightly, but not $1500 worth.

Id say it depends on how bad you want to get rid of it. If the rest of the car is mint and only needing those 1500 worth of brakes and tires, than I would do them and then try and recoup that money in the sales price, listing it for like $14,500 if it is a transferable warranty. If the rest of the car is average condition then I wouldnt do the work and list it low range 12,500 and hopefully it wont sit for ever while you are driving around on bad tires and bad brakes! GL
