Hey.
I'm considering purchasing a clk55 2001.
It is almost fully loaded including Nav.
It's a 9/10 with 55,000 miles on it.
The guy is asking $12500 canadian.
No rust whatsoever.
Black with Mono Block wheels.
ThankYou for any response.

i just bought a one owner 2002. 30K miles. 9.5/10.

paid 18.125. It had been on the market for a little bit, but ultimately there were two others willing to pay as much, or more, than me.

so you are the one who bought that car...
i had been watching it, its a black one right? it was a bit more than i wanted to pay and i had worried that 30k miles on a 14 year old car may have been not enough to keep all the parts in good shape. but i bet that interior is immaculate

im still trying to find a good one, im looking for something with 40-70k miles.

to answer the OP, yea i think thats a pretty good price.

Where did you find it? Thinking of possibly putting mine up (2002 Cabriolet, 25K miles, immaculate, runs like a watch), just curious.

You shouldn't worry about it. My 25k car has all the parts in good shape. Had it recently serviced and the worst they could say was "Oh, part such-and-such has a slight leak, you might wanna have that fixed at some point". I still get compliments on how good it looks

yea i never know at that point, but it was more about the fact that it was about $3000 more than i was looking to pay.

i picked up my 2001 with 56k miles for just about $10k after taxes. im finding the car has more issues than i originally thought, but after a couple thousand in repairs i think i will still be in good shape having a car that is about 8/10 condition with low miles for around $12/13k.
