I had that feeling last month. Just turned over the keys yesterday for my E55. Now I'm dealing with 3 dealerships on a C63. After I test drove a C63 Coupe and Sedan I was hooked. They just feel more sporty and the exhaust sound is godlike....

if someone has access to a Manhiem account, have them run to vin to see if went through the auction how much did it sell for. This way you know how much room you have to bargain. You can also do a 6 week price seach to see what they fetch for in the auction.

Its only got 1k miles on it and its a 100k cpo but its listed on ebay for 59k or best offer

even at 62k its about 12-13k in savings over buying one with zero miles.

I will offer 55k and see what they say

5% to 10% off the price of the car is very doable in these market conditions.

I'm working on a 2011 (Sedan) fully loaded with only 10k miles for 50k.. The dealership in Las Vegas told me I was crazy, they had a 2011 black/black with p31 package, I offered them 55k tax/license, they are trying to get $58,500 tax/license everything. They told me they werent interested in "WHOLESALE-ing" the car to me. Haters...

The C63 sure beats my friends moms C300. lol Haven't looked at the C63 much cause I didn't care for the C class but they did a pretty good job on these. Good luck with your sale, and hope the new car is good to you.

one car at a time
I don't get it...Yes it is newer and has less miles....but it is slower, only has 2 doors, and will cost a lot more....

Sure if it was the CLS63 TT or the new e63 TT, but an NA c63 ????? Nahhhhhh

If you want 2 doors, fast & fun, get a used 911TT or a GTR, before getting a c63...

Well for one Iv had my e55 for 5 years,I came from an M3 and wanted a 2 door from the get go and I can make this c63 just as fast as my e55k and have a 100k warranty on it.

you need to keep in mind this is a brand new car and its got the facelift/new fogs over the 2011 models and basically saving 15k off sticker with an added 50k mile warranty.

If this car was white I would of allready pulled the trigger but trust me when I say this.I am soo sick and bored with my e55 there are times that I dont even feel like driving it.
