Selling my baby for another baby (boy hopefully:-)

Have to let one baby go in order to make room for another baby (hopefully it's a boy).

Please let me know if you have any comments.


Thanks,
Eric

Good price for that car, especially considering it's got the Performance Package. I basically just bought the same car (without PP) at a dealer, CPO for a tad under $53K (approx because there was a trade in the mix). Good luck selling, sorry you have to. But a baby is about the only thing better so the trade is worth it!

Congrats on the baby!

Now take a better pic of the car without you in it? Do you come with the sale or something?

This C63 was built by Markus Jaudes. Not to be confused with Marcus Jacobi.

Thanks,

I thought adding a photo with a picture of a very happy owner would help sell the car:-) Honestly, it was a rush job. My ebay listing will be much more complete.

Thanks,

Sorry for any confusion but my C63 DOES NOT have the performance package (LSD; Upgraded Brakes/Suspension; Alcantera Steering; Delimited Speed).

Cheers,

Apologies re Markus Jaudes and not Marcus Jacobi. Misread it from your pic. Should have looked a little closer.

Good luck with the sale.

Why not just keep it? It will fit a car seat no problem

Budget won't allow for 3 babies (Me; C63 and my yet to be named son). Would love to keep it though. It's a great car, the best machine I've ever owned.

I'm confident though that one day, i'll own another. Just have to let the baby dust settle first. Happy wife, happy life. Trust me when I say it. It's true.

Thanks,
Eric

I couldn't tell if it was Jacobi, who built my motor. GLWS.
