2014 CL63 - is this a good investment?

I found a 2014 CPO CL63 w/AMG Performance Package, Driver Assistance package, and a few other options. Only 18K miles. I currently have a 2008 CL550 with 48K miles which has run beautifully and which I've enjoyed. Trying to decide between holding on the the CL550 or selling it and getting the CL63, and would appreciate all advice!

No car made after 1980 is a good investment---sell the car and buy Microsoft!

AMG and investment don't belong in the same sentence.

Unless it's a BS of sorts that is stowed away for 30 years.

Maybe an investment on your well being and happiness. 2012+ CL63s are awesome! besides being on an old platform and feeling a bit dated the drivetrain is great and the car still looks classy but it all depends on what you want from the car. If you are willing to lose on some performance I would look into a 2015 s coupe, non amg of course to get into a somewhat similar price range as a 2014 cl63.

An incredible investment as a "short" as you KNOW it will drop 10k each year.

I will say after 3 of these that they do eat up highway well.

AMG is like the new netflix and chill,

2009 CL 63
My CL63 has been great and I would buy another one in a heartbeat. I thought about upgrading mine a few times but I couldn't get away from the true 6.3 liter V8 and the fact that my car was in pristine shape. Ive been driving the S cabs lately and probably going to step up to one of those but you cant go wrong wit ha CL63 that has been taken well care of. If you've enjoyed your 550 you will really love having a 63 in your garage.

I was lucky enough to have one of the first 2008 CL63's in May 2007 and to this day I am sorry I ever got rid of it. So sorry in fact that I am searching almost daily for the right replacement, whether I should remain traditional with the naturally aspirated 6.2 or update to a later year twin turbo. I have totally forgotten the $3000 per axle brake job, ABC failure, etc. and only look forward to my "investment" in enjoyment. Get the 63 and have fun!
