What price to start negotiations with
It looks like all my time of waiting is going to pay off and I'll be ready to purchase a C63 within the next couple of weeks. I've already spotted a couple cars that I'll look at in the local area and they're all at dealerships, some CPO some not. That being said, what should I use to start my negotiating price? I'm not looking for a specific number but maybe a source. I've checked KBB and those numbers seem a bit on the high side. I have range of what I'm willing to pay but want to make sure it's reasonable place to make my first offer. I'd appreciate any help.

I was looking more for websites or sources that could determine the number, but all the cars I'm looking at are like this:
2010
10-20k mi
P2 package
Multimedia package
AMG seating package
keyless go
I'm thinking $52k is a good place to start for the CPO cars and $50k for the non-CPOs.

For that MY with those packages, I would actually expect you to pay somewhere in the neighborhood of $55k+ depending on the condition of the individual cars you're comparing, of course.
$50k would be a screaming deal if you could get it.
