Don't Buy This C63 Sight Unseen
Heads up for anyone who was thinking about purchasing this C63 sight unseen.
The sales guy described the vehicle condition as "brand new" but after a 2.5hr drive it was anything but that. While he was a nice guy the paint on this car was terrible 3/10. It looked like the rear doors had been sandblasted and the hood/bumper was pretty bad too. It was bad enough that I got out of the car looked at it for maybe 3 minutes and got back in my car to leave.
Just trying to save anyone some time who was potentially thinking about the car.

That is actually a scary CarFax report. First reported mileage was 8,xxx miles? Where is the first owner? When is the warranty start date?
I would avoid this one too .. I'm pretty sure it's a salvage vehicle. They wouldn't provide the CarFAX report to me, and I googled the VIN, and it came back with a link to a salvage site (this was about 2 months ago).

The vehicle has all the right options but one thing is for sure it's lived a very hard life. At the very least this thing has 8k miles of burnouts or track use from the looks of the rear door panels. Price I had negotiated was 55k w/CPO for anyone who wants to pursue it. Another weird thing is they didn't advertise it as CPO but I was able to negotiate that into the deal by email before I looked at it.
