*$50000, used C63 VS W212 E350 VS W210 E550*
Hello
i have $50000 to spend for a car, i am considering used C63, used W211 E550, or W212 E350. especially iam concering about the advanced tech and electronics, and handling aspect of the W211 E class vs the newer generation of MB( C63 and w212 e350 amg sport) what would you guys recommend? currently i have a E60 M5 and i am searching cars for my younger brother. power is not going to be a main issue, as long as it is enough and i am sure the above 3 cars have more than enough power for everyday driving.
thanks!

'09 C63 AMG
Many of us like myself bought a loaded '09 C63 AMG (except for the Perf. Package) last summer for ~ $55k (~ $13k off MSRP and ~ $5k under invoice) b/c of a nice $7.5k MB mfgr-dealer rebate in addition to decent negotiated discounts off MSRP. Although not certain, it is possible MB may offer a similar rebate for leftover '10 C63s this summer as well.

That's what I mean. If you're gonna get used...might as well...and you might even get one with P031 in it. If it was me I would wait to see if they have any deals. And if not, then you still have that option to get a used one.

Question for you, I bought my '09 last September brand new, and I was never offered any MFGR rebates. I kept asking them over and over about this and they said there were no rebates AT ALL on AMG models. I ended up paying $60K out the door. What was this rebate, and can I go complain to them about lieing to me about this? Can this sort of thing be argued? I am kind of teed of at this becuase I remember asking them several times and they kept saying not AMG models...
If you purchased your C63 in Sept., 2009, you may have just missed out.

No; unfortunately for you my friend, I think you just missed the "unadvertised" $7,500 Merc- Benz mfgr-dealer rebate. I believe this was secretly offered to customers who asked about it (and negotiated huge discounts off MSRP) from June - Aug, 2009...I learned about the deals going on through this MBW forum and just started calling MB dealers all over the U.S. for a good deal. Because there were no C63's with the options/color I wanted in FL in mid July, 2009 (and my local dealers wouldn't offer me the price I wanted to pay for a car they had to acquire from an out-of-state dealer), I ended up buying a C63 AMG directly from a VA dealer and had them transport my car from VA to my home in FL at no extra cost to me.

****** FU**ERS!! Well I remember when I bought it, I negotiated the whole day and they were really tough on going below a certain amount. I knew what their break point was (in my head and with my math) and I knew they would never go any lower then the price I was negotiating at. The car was exactly what I wanted, all the options I wanted, so there was no waiting. I took it home that evening. I then joined the formum 2 weeks later and learned so much since then. I guess there is a price for experience and knowledge ( guess I overpaid about $5K for it!). Maybe the consolidation gift was I got a benz cover, all season mats, and the interior/exterior warranty extended at no cost.
Great to be a part of a fantastic forum with great members who are helpful and knowledgable. A "band of brothers" with advice and guidance at your fingertips.
I will never forget this though: THE FEELING I HAD WHEN THEY HANDED ME THE KEYS. WORTH EVERY PENNY.
