As long as mine is giving good service I am keeping it. I love the car and have no desire for a new one unless mine starts breaking down a lot (like two or more times per year) and has to be towed. The repairs are way less than a new car. My E63 is not a daily driver, that's what I have the Yukon XL for. I think with advertising and good photos the OP will sell his car in a few weeks. .

2014 E63S; AMS 100 octane ECU dyno tune; EDOK TCU tune; BB intakes; sprintbooster
At least auto trader and discuss the headbolts have been resolved and excellent pictures and a carfax and you're good to go

the OP has decent photos, the buyback may spook some buyers but it is what it is; was the engine replaced on buyback? Why specifically was it bought back?

obv the car has done well for 60k miles since the buyback

For $21,000, you're getting a $100,000 car that performs like a $100,000 car was designed to do, it's a Benz and it's luxurious and it carries prestige. This is a car that the car magazines gushed over when it came out. It's a ton of car for the money and the right buyer will recognize that and scoop this car up and love it.

good conversation! These discussions definitely open my eyes a bit
sorry to take the discussion a little south lol im not criticizing anybodys financial decisions and mine are no better. without giving away too much about myself, im still in my early twenties and in no position to criticize anyones financial decisions, I was simply citing some arguments i have to pull out when i debate with my friends who think i'm crazy for buying used germans lol
but yeah good points were made

and to OP sorry for changin the subject, good luck with sale

put your foot down on the price and have some patience. theres plenty of people out there like me that would buy it

I have to agree with amgboy... ANYTHING Mercedes builds is built to last, with regular and proper care. Although this is only my second one. I believe in both mfr. and aftermarket warranties to soften the blow.
