Any black cars for sale

Anyone with a clean c43 AMG for sale? Preferably looking for one in black but in the even rarer chance someone was selling one in red, I would be interested. I am located in Boston, MA but I am open to any location. Condition of the car is much more important than mileage.

You have perfect timing! There just happens to be an immaculate black 98 C43 with super low miles (like less than 40K miles?) for sale here in this very forum. But get ready to grab your ankles as the owner is looking for premium money. I'm sure he'll will be chiming in very soon.

Haha yes. I saw it up on Autotrader. Given a 47k mile one sold for $15.5 plus 5% on BaT, I think the seller will be holding on to his a little while longer. I did send him a message just in case he would be realistic.

It was in Minnesota. Owner did drive it from CA when he bought it but was about 16 months ago.

Has 137k miles. Panda interior. Few dings that'll get pulled but otherwise should be solid. Sight unseen.

Oh ok, hope you got a good deal. There was a local one here for sale recently, silver one-owner beauty with only 118K miles for (finally!) a reasonable price at $6950, but it was silver and some other lucky guy got to it before me. Maybe we'll see it here on the forums soon.

I think I know who you're referring to, and if so, he'll probably give it a good wax and then turn around and list it for $20K. LOL

na man that guy in Miami is a well respected c43 expert always has top Quilty AMGs specially c43s and trust me he spends a good deal of time and quality parts to get these c43s back to where they should be in prime condition
congrats to the owner of the white c43 looked like a nice one but the black one with 157k from Rhode Island was nice as well
every owner should be happy to see these cars going up in price sometimes if if it’s a must just have to step up and pay to play

Whenever you want a list of my very satisfied customers, some on this very forum, I'd be happy to provide.
Also stacks of receipts for OEM parts and labor from MB/ASE certified techs - not backyard mechanics searching Google for 'how-to' videos.
All are happy with their purchase experience and more importantly, their C43's.
No one puts a gun to their head to buy my cars at my asking prices...but you get what you pay for.

I don't cut corners on these cars...I like them too much to do that.
Also, I pay-up for nicer cars...because I can.
And I surely don't do this for money...thankfully, I don't need to.

One last thing, wise guy...I do use VERY expensive wax.

Nice to see the demand/price rising on these. Its getting very hard to find nice ones and people are starting to appreciate if you want it, pay up. Its still cheep compared to other similar options.
