Thats crazy. Imagine buying a 3.4 mil car for 243K....
What makes even less sense is why someone decided to part it out (if that is what happened)? I mean, wouldn't it be worth more as it was?

I am wondering if they are doing engine or transmission work and just had to take the car apart to do it. Their are numerous exotics that are like that where you darn near take the back half of the car completely off to do any major work.

Stunning looking vehicle even though it's from 1995, it look's very futuristic w/up to date style.. Why doesn't MB add this engine to (1) of the current Black Series or SLS/SLR models etc..
C1000 was a one-of-a-kind. Power in this mid-90's beast came from a 5.6-liter Mercedes V8 that was force-fed by twin turbochargers, resulting in about 1000 HP and 723 lb-ft of torque

Ha! I have driven by that dealership dozens of times. I hate I've never stopped in to see their inventory. They usually have a few exotics sitting around.
I love how many can't believe it's in the Concord area. There are tons of car collectors around here. We call Mooresville, NC "Race City USA".
