Mileage a little high but wow what a great price...and that's before you've negotiated discount which must be another $3,000.

Great color and looks clean too...just make sure it's a one owner car with full MB service history...one last thing is triple check it's been in any accidents.

Keep updates coming on this, g/luck,

Also, check to see how much life are left on the brakes...and make any necessary adjustments to the offer based on that.

no keyless go, no distronic...

by the look of it is a local trade in so they paid 36k for it or so...

Thanks for all the replies!

They said they bought the car off lease.

It has an accident history though, and it scares me. The salesman said the right fender was replaced and no physical damages can be seen on the car...

With that said, is there anyone near this dealer that can take a look at the car, I'll pay for dinner for you and your family for helping out

Thanks in advance!
Aleks

Car was hit.. I saw it go through at auction in Seatle

check your carfax gents.....

Car had the right apron replaced, fender, hood etc. ....the frame was mangled.. it was listed on the manheim report...

It is risky... more will come along with same miles same price or less and no damage and with a clean carfax for resale later....

no warranty as well........

Car does have keyless Alex... code 889 on list..... but this is a problem car...

BE careful

Scary stuff man. It's a shame though, cause she looks soooo clean. IMO 51K is too much mileage for a V12TT car anyway. The fact that they accepted your $38K offer right away would make me run away, fast.

Here are a few of my picks...I used a Chicago Zip Code so the distance is calculated taking your area into account. I'll miss that supercharger whine I saw from your car on video.

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

This one has a bit high mileage like your original link but it has Distronic, Parktronic, Keyless Go:

I know you are interested in the 65 AMG but the CL600 has some great deals.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mercedes-Benz-CL-Class-CL600-2005-MERCEDES-CL600-NAVIGATION-KEYLESS-GO-CALL-TODAY_W0QQitemZ220401769222QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_C ars_Trucks?hash=item220401769222&_trksid=p4506.c0. m245&_trkparms=65%3A3|39%3A1|240%3A1318

Carfax 1 Owner and at a MB Dealer:
http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

20,000 miles for 40k:
http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

Best deal IMHO, 9,750 miles for a 2005 at 42k:

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

Low mileage 2003 for under 30k with 28,000 miles, a great deal for those who want an older car:
