What to pay for an 09 C63?

Thanks man! I'm originally from that area in NJ so my family and friends are all still scattered around. I started looking at some 2010's, but then I decided that I really really want to swap up to a 2012 within the next year or two, so I decided to save a few $$'s and go with the '09 instead. Once I saw this deal I figured I should just jump on it.

C63
Thanks everyone for your input and help along the way. After two months of searching I finally have a C63 in the driveway! ![drive](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/driving.gif)
I ended up getting an 09 white with the sahara beige (white) interior and black burlwood. I know I paid a bit too much but it was exactly what I wanted and it had every option including p30. Original MSRP was $73k and i paid about $47k from a dealership. This color combo was really hard for me to find so I figured it was worth the few extra bucks. The car was 1 owner with all records in perfect condition with new tires and a new registration...
Now on to the fun stuff. I plan on doing a few cosmetic mods (smoke tail lights, clear corners, tint, brabus alcantara Shift knob...) along with possibly doing an ECU tune and reso delete. If anyone has suggestions on where to go to get any of this done in San Diego or what exactly to get please let me know!
Thanks again!

thoughts on this one? thinking about starting offer at about 47k. still too much? 2 owners kind of makes me nervous...but mileage is low and carfax is clean.

It's got the right options. I'd check to the carfax to see how long each owner had the car. If either one was a lease that might be a redflag. The car is CPO and you can buy the additional factory warranty (well worth it (ask me how I know) if you don't plan to do much in the way of mods) to mitigate the concerns you may have over prior abusive use. $47K might be a touch high but perhap they cut you some discount on the extended warranty.

Second owner only 2 months...
Both 'personal' and not 'personal lease' like I've seen on some carfax reports
Thanks for your help!

A quick advice, I spent almost two years looking, changing my mind, contemplating about which C63 should I get...
Everyone on the forums here kept saying just get one and stop postponing the eventuality!
So I did...
I just wish I never had to spend 2 years wasting time.
Moral of the story: if you see a C63 you like, just get it and enjoy it. It will be a very, very, unique experience.
Enjoy!
