thanks for the quick reply.

There is an offer for a 1999 C43 with 82000 miles for 24000. What do you guys think? Is 82K miles a little too much?

Thanks

Calvin

These engines will last a long time, and will probably fine for the duration of your ownership, even starting at 82,000, but less would certainly be better. I would aim for 50,000 or less. Nothing is wrong with more, just normal wear and tear comes with those extra miles. 1998 and 1999 are identical except the CD changer in 1999 was fiberoptic... 1998 with average miles would be around $27, 1999 around $28 or 29. Good luck.

I just bought a C43 in excellent condition. Blk with blk leather. Only 22,000 miles and still has 14 months of factory warranty. It didn't sell until Aug 2000 so it's still under the 4yr/50,000 mile factory warranty. Anyway I got it for $28,500. I think I got a great deal. The car is flawless!!! I should have it within a week since it's being shipped from Arizona.
