Should I buy this c63??

New to the forum and Mercedes in general. Coming from an older bmw and ready for a little something more modern. I test drove a c400 today and the power just wasn’t there. I saw this c63 and thought it was a pretty good deal. Just wanted expert opinions lol. Does this look like a good deal? Thanks again!

anything pre-facelift, i'd be wary of the headbolts. ends up being a really expensive repair when they do go bad. there are a couple good c63's for sale in the marketplace on this forum that i'd advise you to check out. better to get a vehicle that an enthusiast owned and took care of.

this one looks good: https://mbworld.org/forums/market/747325


edit: actually this one actually looks even better and has the P31 package that is a must in my opinion and it's even cheaper https://mbworld.org/forums/market/747942

2012-2014 if you want the 6.3. No headbolt issues. I recently bought my 2012 with 30k miles. It took me about 1 year to find a good one. Checked cars all over the Country but after inspection, they we're roached. Oil leaks, been in accidents etc. The good ones sell in a day so you gotta be quick.

Thanks for all of the help. Unfortunately I can’t buy private party. I have bangin rates with cap one right now so was looking for a good one at a dealership. I do agree though 2012 seems the way to go. I was only looking at the older models because I kinda want this car forever.

Approval from cap one doesn’t let you go private?
