Hey guys,
I’m finally selling my car. It’s a 2002 model, with 59k miles. While the car is in Norcal, and I’m in school in Socal, I don’t drive the car much. It’s been driven fewer than 10k miles a year average in its time.
Overview:
The car is black with black interior, and was well-optioned from the factory. Sticker was over $57k, as it included navigation, heated seats, rain sensors, ski-sack with passthrough, etc. The interior is in good condition. I don’t smoke, and the car has always had its own garaged parking spot. I am the second owner, and my family owns the title free and clear. There are no liens on the car. No accidents, and it has not been tracked. The car has several modifications on it, but I will also include the stock wheels (on Toyo T1-S tires).

Modifications:
I’ve also had several modifications done to the car.
ASP Overdrive Pullies (I’d estimate it has about 380hp, and similar torque numbers)
Brabus Front Bumper
Color Coded Black Grille
Eisenmann Race Exhaust (2 x 83mm round)
H&R Coilovers
OEM Bixenon Headlights w/ 8000K HID
OEM Euro Impact Strips
2005 Accessories OEM Trunklid Spoiler
2005 Foglights w/ 8000K HID
W211 Mirror Turn Signals
HRE 545R Wheels (powdercoated gloss black w/ polish lips) - 19 x 8.5 (front), 19 x 9.5 (rear)

Condition:
The car has 59k miles, which is fairly low for a 2002 model. It has some natural wear and tear, like a few rock chips / scratches on the front bumper, and some scratches on the rear bumper. The front left and rear left wheels have slight bends on the outer part of the rim. The wheels also have some slight nicks.

Preventative Maintenance:
I’ve invested much to have the car prepared for a new owner. Recently, I’ve had “service B” performed, including replacing the transmission and brake fluids, air filters, etc. Its brake pads have recently been replaced, and I’ve taken care of several of the issues that w203 owners face (power steering pump, power seat modules). I’ve had a new power steering pump / air pump installed, upgraded with a new intercooler pump (from the SVT lightning which is larger capacity and a direct bolt on), and installed a new pulley tensioner bearing to accommodate the upgraded pulley system. In the next few days, two brand new power seat modules will be installed, replacing the driver and passenger seat units. I’ve invested much in preventative maintenance so that the new owner won’t have to deal with these common issues.

Pricing:
Bluebook for good condition is $19,700. I’ve spent about $15k in parts and preventative maintenance (like the seat modules). I’m aware that I can’t recoup most of my investment, but I think that $26,000 is a fair price given how much I’ve put into it and it’s condition.

The car is located in the San Francisco Bay Area. My email is kyee87@yahoo.com. Thanks!

helluva car... but price is high imho...

 

too much car for too little money. I would keep it if I were you!!!

 

great car looks sweet but onfortunately ,you will get avery little for your mods , i know cuase when i sold my m3 i had about 23 k in it and i got very little back. good luck with the sale .

 

^ yup...

Mods really do not add much value to the car. I have sold several modded cars and in the end you get very little back for them. I think you'd be lucky to see $20k-$22k.

If I were you I'd part it out, then just sell the car for like $18k. Good luck though.. nice ride!!

 

Nice C32, even though '02's where rare w/the release of the C55 and now the C63 unfortunetly yours will take a major hit in resale. I have had a couple of modded AMG's and although they are nice cars the resale suck. If you can keep and enjoy it that would be the best route.

 

I have a few questions regarding your C32 . I can be reached at 610-360-3535. Thanks

 

I have not received any response with regard to your car that is for sale! If you would rather that I call you just leave me your number and I will give you a call.. Hope to hear from you soon!!! Thanks

 

$20k would be a fair asking price..great looking car but you'll never get $26k for it

 

GL man these cars take a big hit !!!!! thats why im keeping my c55 till the lease term is up a year of me having the car i was going to dump it they wanted to give me 35k lol

 

Any interior shots??? I would say $18-$20k you can roughly get for it..Hey if it was 3months from now I would have given you $20k cash..Its a clean benz...Good for daily driven!

 

hey guys, i realize that i was asking a bit much at first, but i've now adjusted my price according to your feedback.

new price: $20,500 + 2,000 for HRE's

 

better price

 

Took a month though?? I say 20k with the HRE's
