2002 C32 Amg $16,000 Need It Gone

Here is link to my autotrader ad which may not show the new mileage and price. Everything else is the same as far as condition, clean title, accident free, etc.
The car is excellent and well maintained. I put a deposite on a car I found and just waiting for financing and some other details to go thru and need the C32 sold before that or I am forced to trade it in.

currently at 98,xxx miles and selling for $16,000.

Give me a call 262-271-3414

Best wishes on the sale. I'm sure it will go quickly.

Should I get the Accord, Camry, or the ~350 HP AMG??...

Trouble is a normaly camry or accord buyer cant afford the MB style mispap in the service drive.

Sorry sir your Kompressor has cracked and your transmission is failing due to a faulty radiator. That will be 7k please.

The C32 is an AMAZING buy right now as long as the buyer realizes the possible issues and has cash on the side waiting for the rainy day.

It could be flawless but its still a risk.

16k for an AMG thats only say 5 years old? Thast crazy.

I sold my C36 for $23k when it was 7 years old in 2002. But it has 54k miles and a factory warranty still.

Clearly, the typical “reliable transportation” buyer is far removed from the enthusiast mindset which prevails among many MBWorld members. Any reasonable potential buyer of any Mercedes-Benz should darn well know that the true cost of operation is far more than that agreed to on his loan application. It’s hard (for me) to fathom how a model that rolled out the showroom five years ago for more that $50k is available for a relative pittance today.

Its issues are well known, and are frequently not inexpensive to rectify. When I read about your, smgC32’s and other member’s exploits with our lowly W203, it minimizes the opportunity cost of the ownership experience. I’m always pleased when I open the garage door each morning and have an AMG of my own just waiting to pounce. From my perspective, if one can swing it, there is no possible reason to rationalize driving a boring car.

unless it's a ferrari, some other exotic rides or a classic AMG that only has 10 miles on the dial after 10 yrs. anything else will just depreciate....

I can't speak for the owner, but my concern in selling my car is not the acquisition cost but the longer-term ownership cost.

Just checked out your link. Very nice AMG at a great price. It should go quickly. If I were looking for another toy and had the room, I'd consider it.

The car is great but I'm just looking for something different as I do every year about this time. Its priced so good due to mileage and the market is not out there because its not that well known. People know AMGs but the E55s etc.

I'm in awe at the price drops. Now it is looking really tempting. While I am not immediately in the market, I'm watching the action.

So, who has the highest mileage C32. How long can the motors last?

What kind of gas mileage you get?

Hey my friend is looking for a car, we are in Chicago. I showed him the link!

He has been looking at C32s with higher miles, but a couple months ago they were in the high teens, low 20s. (He's not short on money...this is just supposed to be his "beater" along with his BoxterS!)

He's jealous of my C55

I am getting many emails asking if its clean title, ever been wrecked etc.

The title is CLEAN. Car is in Great shape/condition. LOW price is due to me jumping the gun and putting deposite on a new vehicle. The car is priced lowest in the country and is priced at trade-in value. Dont let this pass you by.

The price is great, someone should buy it ASAP. I wouldn't be to scared regarding the mileage, I've seen some close to 130k miles still running strong. As long as the car has been regularly serviced and taken care of, it should be fine

This is a really dumb question but what does have a "clean" title mean?
