Possible sale of 1999 C43

Considering selling my 1999 C43

I'm the second owner, purchased it in 2005 as a Starmark vehicle from Mercedes Benz of South Atlanta.
Had 26K miles when I purchased, just turned 51K miles.

Always dealer serviced, just had the 50K service done along with some suspension part replacements.

Car is as new, only mods are dash mounted XM radio and color matched BMW style trunk lip spoiler and S600 grille with flat hood emblem .

Color is Brilliant silver metallic with black leather.

All options, xenon, trunk mounted cd changer, etc.
Driven by my wife, always garaged and detailed twice a year.

As close to new as you can get....consider offers around $18K...

Has clear title...
Located in Southern Delaware Coastal area...
Can arrange enclosed shipping.

Reason for selling, considering purchasing a Brabus modified SL...

Only room for four cars, so one may have to go....

Probably was...she only drives it about ten miles a day back and forth to work.
Hard to put any miles on a car down here as there is no place to go !!

Deal on the Brabus fell through as there were a few problems with the vehicle.

Decided to keep the C43 and if I buy anything, I'll probably sell the G55....
Now looking at a very, very low mileage 1994 E500.....
I really like the W124's and the W202 which to me is more in the style of the early and better made Mercs !

The C43 was one of the most effective transformations of a Merc sedan to a performance vehicle.

Visually park it next to a C280 and it doesn't even look like the same car !!!!

Much better interior quality then the W203 and W204, the interior is the "classic" Merc design that goes back to the early eighties....

That's why I decided to keep mine and if I sell anything it will be my G55
!!!!
