Nice G

Ya. my friend used to work there and I'm friends with some of the guys who work there. However, no one knows everything :-)

Putting down the deposit tonight, if all goes well it will be mine in about 2 weeks when my current parts sell.

Man, it's been so long I can't even remember the time I posted about maybe buying a C63.

Oh wait, that's probably because I didn't....

Anything specific to look over, make sure it's already done, etc? I understand a lot of prior issues were resolved in 2012+

Thanks in advance for your help.

P.S, I understand completely I'll be killing a set of rear tires a summer, already do in the G 😂
Ignore the ususal pony pucks from some quarters. The car look terrific.
Get a data card from them so you have a good understanding of everything on it. Mileage is low and the Carfax likely good. Service history is likely educational. See if they will top it up to a CPO and you will get some warranty. It does not say it is anything but stock but they may have overlooked the performance/developlment package and stuff like LSD.
As to price I paid $55k for a 2013 sedan with the performance package etc red and black interior leather one owner with some warranty left in September in Vancouver. Looking at AT for 2012's a number with more K's at this price of higher so asking price looks in the ballpark. An extended warranty included would be a good buy if the car checks out.

Thanks! Ya. wasn't sure if there was anything known to occur that I get them to fix under CPO :-)



Thanks! I did miss that, I was on my phone.
Never heard such BS on Merc site like this. I must be missing the Doritos and for sure the f---ing explosion has not yet occurred on my 2013 and it is pedal to the metal to its shift points a lot of the time.

Here I was thinking my 2013 smellled like Doritos because I was bringing them in with me. This explains why when I stopped bringing them it still smells like Doritos!

Ask stupid questions, get stupid answers. It's my new mantra in life. People at work love me.

And what does THIS have to do with anything? Do you get this with 2013's? Because I might trade up if so, it looks pretty sweet

Imagine if I fired up the meme game? Yikes.

OP -- It basically goes one of two ways here as you probably have picked up on. But we get a TON of potential buyers and finally started to have our fun. You play ball -- AND actually buy a damn car -- then welcome aboard!

Option B. becomes a dick measuring contest and as others have mentioned it never really ends well for the newcomer.

Seeing as you're on the right path, don't be too scared to ask questions that you really can't find the answers to or a straight answer. Some things have been repeated so many times but so many people contribute (often with bad information) that coming across straight answers may get tricky. We're nice and will help if you ask those types of questions should they come up.

Look forward to seeing your c63.

Thanks. I'll definitely keep it in mind. It actually ends up being exactly the same amount of money this one is with the horrible Canadian dollar.
