Looking atBuying 2012 C63

Hi everyone,
I have found a 2012 C63 Performance Pack for sale. W204 Speedshift MCT7SP
The car has done 133957 km and is a one owner car.
It is for sale from a Mercedes Dealer Ship in Sydney and has a May 2012 build date. My question is, What should i look for and is this too many km's?
Any constructive advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris.

Woah that's a ton of kms for a 2012! For the age of the car that's nearly 35,000 per year. If you are ok with expesnive parts/labor for future problems/wear and tear then go for it. But if you have money for that, why not use it for buying a car with less km? Should be plenty of c63's with less kms. Personally I'd never buy a car with that kind of mileage unless I was in college and the car cost 2 grand lol.

Depends on the price, condition, maintenance, and amount of owners 80k miles is a lot but these cars are more then capable of 100k plus. for me to buy a car like this price would have to be amazing

That person was definitely driving/getting the most out of it lol. Over 20k km a year is pretty high. Best to look at other ones, not saying anything is wrong with that one..but I'm sure there are lower mileage C63's out there.

Thanks Guys,
Will keep looking. Unfortunately finding a good used C63 with low mileage is proving difficult. Also i can only afford to look at the late 2010 model as that will hopefully not have a head bolt issue. Thats why the one at 130,000 looks good. And its in excellent condition. Any way thanks again.

What's the price difference? Interesting thing about that many miles, it's hard to do that with out a lot of highway driving. So that might not be too bad. Still, it would have to be a STEAL I think to make it worth it.

Patience. Skip going out, pack your lunch, and save like a boss. The cars are definitely out there. The good thing is, the longer you wait, the more you can save, so you're price should be shifting up while the price of used cars only goes down.

Also some early 2011's are affected by it, but I wouldn't worry too much about the headbolt issue. Just keep searching for one with the options you want and who knows, you may be able to find a FL version within your price range.
