Thoughts on Purchasing this (or another) C63?

Hello everyone! I'm on the hunt for a used C63 between the years of 2012-14 with a max price of $35k. At first I was wary of the mileage but from what I have been reading I shouldn't worry too much about that as long as the service records show that the car was taken care on schedule. With this said, what do you think of this car?:

It looks to have been maintained well and has a pretty extensive service history but it does have quite a bit of miles for a 2014. I'm not sure if that is a good thing or something I should be wary about. What do you experience Benz owners think?

Way too many miles for a 2014 .... you can do much better. Get a car with a warranty,, you wont regret spending a few extra $$ to get the right car but you just might if you don't. Good luck searching.

I agree. That's a lot of miles for a 2014. Not sure where your located, but check out driveanything.com. They usually have a few C63's for sale. I have no affiliation to them.

Thanks. I figured that the mileage was a red flag but wasn’t sure if it meant much on these cars. Thanks for the advice! I am looking at ones in the 2013 model which are mostly out of warranty... are these cars that prone to issues that I should be searching for one with a warranty? My thought process is that if the records don’t show any issues at 40k miles and up it should be fine.. is this naive thought?

thanks for the reference! Those are a bit out of my price range and a little further than I am willing to drive but i appreciate the response!

Only the latest 2014 and 2015 are still under warranty (even then not for much longer) and they will still be in the 40s. Given your budget you won't be getting one of those. The facelift have been pretty reliable I don't think a warranty is a requirement.
