Kicking tires on selling my C36

Everyone -

I have a 1997 C36 in Imperial Red with 284K on the clock. Wondering if anyone on this forum would be interested before I hit the FB marketplace slums. I have a full binder thick of maintenance documentation going back to the original owner. Even have the original window sticker. All work since 2012 with 127K when I bought it has been done by the reputable Digital Chassis in Durham, NC. Been a great car but time to move on since I can only drive it 2/3 times a week. Happy to provide photos if anyone is interested. Long live the W202 AMG.

If you move on I'm sure you will regret it. I certainly do after selling my C43 some years back
They are keepers, specially if in good running condition and definitely not daily drivers anymore

MB’s of all kinds.
Post on this forum in the marketplace section. I think it’s a better place than FB Marketplace where it will probably be viewed as just a C Class

I had it repainted in 2014 because the clear coat was peeling. Just some normal chips on the front and nothing out of the ordinary.
