Id say the price would be fair if it had the OEM C43 front bumper

No...I was actually looking at this for awhile now seeing if the price would come down.

The front bumper is NOT AMG. The headliner looks like its sagging/ripped. The rear headrests look like they dont match with the rest of the interior.

I've watched this car for nearly 6 months. It hasn't moved, nor has the price, if I remember correctly.

If my research is correct this is 1 of only 22 produced in 2000? Which makes it a "truly rare car". Of course that only matters to some people... but $15k is puuushing it.

I just paid 11k for a imperial red 98 c43, with almost the same mileage, but in much better shape. I think the asking price is a lil high.
