W204 C63 Black Series or W205 C63s Edition1

Here's the Dilemma
I used to own the Edition1 2012 C63, and regret selling it every day of my life :P. Now, I've been looking at 507s, the new edition1s, and of course, on the hunt for a BS, cause that's something i definitely would keep for the rest of my life. Please help me decide, as i have found a BS for about $100k, a 2013, with 10k miles, but i also have the option of getting the new edition1 from the US and shipping it over (here it costs upwards of $125k). feel free to comment in any case, but especially if you have owned/driven both, and from a collector's point of view (which i am not, yet).
keep in mind, i have 2016 GT3 RS on order, April delivery.

Looking at the list of cars you have a Black series would be my choice. If you have some time then wait for the new Black series coupe. I would not import a 2015 ED1 from the US.

Just my personal opinion. My 2016 c63s has been flawless sofar but there have been a few guys on this forum who have had some built issues with their ED1's. If I had a choice I would get one from Germany.

Get a C63 BS. The last of the NA V8 + the exclusivity of the black series model.
Now You want to buy a C63 BS with track package/aero package/CF exterior and so on. These are the ones holding their value a bit better than a base C63 BS. Not as much as a 997.2 GT3 RS 4.0
On a side note congrats on the 991 GT3 RS allocation. Are you getting it at MSRP or with mark up? There is a crazyness going on with these P cars these days!!

Black Series. Also, look into a Clk63BS. Their values seem to be holding nicely.
