should I buy a c36

I currently know someone that is selling a mint condition 1995 c36 amg. There asking 14,000 for it I know that is way to much but what do you guys think is a good price for one? Im currently driving a 1995 c280 sport. Is it worth while or am I just waiting my time?

if you're a true viking then you know that C36 is overpriced!
a w202 is nowhere near worth 14000 bucks if it's not a real low mileage w202 C55

some history.
vikings on a crusade never paid for anything, they caused mayhem and destruction where ever they sailed with battleships, they took whatever they wanted even women, real savages, with your scandinavian heritage you'd know this.
it's in the history books.

it's kinda high, but you never wrote the mileage or providing other info about car?
check on craigslist between other c36 and c43's compare pricetags and somewhere in between is a good price

Even if it is a Brabus C36 or has 20,000 miles or less and is in IMMACULATE condition $14k is WAY too high.

You could buy 2 C36's for that price and have some $$$ left over

Here is a 2005 C55 with about 59,000 miles for $17k

Depending on the miles and condition that sounds about right. High mileage and not in as good of shape you could find one cheaper.

For reference I bought my 1999 C43 2 years ago with 107,000 miles for $6500. Interior was 9/10 exterior was a 8/10 with the only real issues being rock chips on the bumper and hood.

The 6500 one I found is in Toronto the guy has never been driven in winter. There are 150 000km on it. The body has no rust or corrosion. Im gonna go see it in the next week or so. To see if it is what the pictures show it is.
