Thanks guys. I'm going to test drive a c63 on Tuesday. Will report back. Anyone have an idea of what type of deal I could get? Herb chambers Boston has 2 2013's in stock with the options I'm looking for. 71k for the sedan and 72k for a coupe.

Thanks

 

Do consider a ~2 yr old Certified Optiion. You can get extended warranty with the CPO and buy the MB warranty on top (but get advice here for pricing) for far less the new where depreciation costs a ton in the first years.

 

I bought mine from chambers. Special order. 8% off.

 

Try to get a test drive in on a wet day as well as a good day, might give you an indication of how lightly you need to tread in slippery conditions.

 

I just put a deposit on a 2013 c63 with all the options including the development package. I live outside of Boston as well and I have another alternative unless you can afford multiple cars. I joined this forum a couple years ago when I got an E550 sport - I looked around for a non-4matic and found one. What I did was keep it in the garage for about the 3 worst months of winter and rented a really cheap car by the month. I felt that would be better than trashing the E550.

I expect to pick up the c63 (it has about 9k miles on it) this weekend and will probably do the same.

 

Was there a decision?
