I'm not affiliated with seller, but this seems like a good deal for someone wanting to swap parts to their c63. I would love a ride in this beast! Wow.

At that price it's a steal

Being that it's a Houston car, someone should also be prepared for a flooded car...

That is exactly what I thought when I saw it too

Even if it does run, going through the hassle of swapping parts and turning it back to stock, you're not going to get more than $15k for that thing. If you're lucky. Just not worth it.

That guys got to be on MBW. Is there any chatter on the E63 forum?

Must.... resist......

Ludedude

I'd say that's a distinct possibility. Nice looking car though.

As a side note, there are an *** load of C63's for sale in that area that are about take a price hit regardless if they were affected or not

Reading the cl add it was posted 18 days ago..... so no flood car. Unless he is clairvoyant.

Just pointing out the retail price for a stage 3 car vs price of entire running car..... if you do the work yourself you could come out ahead.

If you can nego him down another 20%.... could be a good swap candidate for a tired 09 C63...... could be a beast of a car.

That's where your assumption that just because the ad was posted 18 days ago eliminates it from being flooded by the hurricane. That's just a coincidence that he posted it prior to the hurricane. With the massive amount (almost 1 million) of cars flooded in Houston, it is wise to presume that it also got flooded. Anyways, you can buy it if you want. It's a buyer beware situation.

I'm looking but I don't see that car in the pile

betrezra

Yeah fair enough..... the fact it is an aftermarket part and stage-3 warrants a good review before buying.

I'm not in the market for a used Stage 3 E63 from a recently flooded area. If the price got low enough this could be a deal for someone.

BLKROKT

That's the right attitude. But seriously, I don't see how one could come out ahead on this. A thrashed Stage 3 kit and all is fine, but that's worth what, like maybe $8k? I don't see how you swap everything out with the time and labor involved, and still sell a beat 07 E63 for anything more than $12-15k. If you're lucky. Sounds like a mistake waiting to happen to me.

So what is retail on a stage 3 installed?

Pretty sure it's over asking price of entire car?

LMK if I'm missing something here?

Jasonoff

Yup, now take that, ditch the install price, and half the rest because it has been used and abused...
