Question What to know when buying 2013 C63?

After browsing the forums, I haven't found a thread answering my questions yet I apologize if this has already been answered.

Once the lease for my current car is up, I'm looking to buy a 2012-2013 C63 coupe with miles ranging from 40k-83k.

Is there anything to look out for when buying this car? Anything to expect maintenance wise down the line or ask upfront when buying?

Any info is appreciated, thank you!

nothing really different between 2012 or 2013 and no real issues with the facelift cars.

just make sure service has been done on time and all recalls taken care of by dealer.

the only deciding factor is the color/options you want. P31 performance package and LSD it desired but not a deal breaker.

this article has a good summary http://www.exoticcarhacks.com/car-re...-buyers-guide/

you should be in the mid 30s for a car with that mileage.

good luck

The article that Intence linked to is a very good one - a must-read for perspective C63 buyers.

The only other option that most would recommend is the lighting package with bi-xenon headlights.
