Yours at 65K with all those performance/track options (PP, LSD etc) and only 2,500 miles sounds pretty good, plus you probably won't find another C63 with all those options on the used market for a while. However, the interior will be quite a letdown compared to your sweet GT3

Couldn't agree more. The P31 itself pre manufactured itself can dwindle your search from 25 to 1 depending on your color choice(s). Before I ordered mine, they only had 1 mars red p31 for sale in the U.S. I would have gotten it, but it was it had maple trim instead of cf, it did have LSD however. Another thing was sahara beige, which stained easily(I was willing to live with it, but preferred black int.) The cf broke the deal. On a side note, a lot easier to negotiate on a car on the lot than ordering. Like a few of us have mentioned, 65k is an amazing deal for like new 2011. The first owner always gets the fat end of the stick on resale value. Their loss, your gain. Go buy it already before someone else does. Cheers mate.

That car at $65,000 should be a no brainer. I have friends with CTSV's and while they are generally happy with the car in terms of quality and of course performance, none are "rabid" about the ownership experience. The C63 you are considering is optioned perfectly, priced great and will serve better to fill the GT3 void than any other sedan. It has a certain "fury" about it that rewards ALL the senses and makes it a blast to drive. Other cars may exceed the performance (barely) but will not affect you in the same manner as the beast!
