Whats up guys?

I been looking around for another car and i found a 2002 C32 AMG with 94k on it at a nissan dealer near me. They are asking 14k for the car but the blue book is at 25k. Just wondering what you guys think of the car and the price.

I will definatley test drive and inspect before i buy if i plan to. I checked the car's carfax and its a one owner with no accidents. Is it just me or does something not add up. I have seen pictures and the car looks great. It also qualifies for an extended drivetrain warranty that i will definately purchase.

Any thought on this, and the car?

TIA!!

I would definitely do some homework on it first. I had an 03 and it was fantastic, but I would do a LOT of research buying a car that had that many miles on it.

It's a great car but make sure you know everything about it before considering it.

In the 230, 320, and 350; not the AMG's.

Yea the carfax history looks great, no accidents and it seems like it has had its maintenence up to date. But i will definatley be sure to do all the reasearch and homework about the car before seriously considering it.

For the people that had one or have been in one, how is it?

Im excited seems like a fun car.

Thanks Again

I really enjoyed mine. I put around 25,000 miles on it and never had a problem at all. It was pretty good in the twisties but really shined in the acceleration department (like most AMG's). I was able to get around 22-23 mpg on the highway with it and it was a great day-to-day driver.

The seats were comfortable on long trips and didn't break your back like most sport sedans can.

its not a bad price, but if something goes, be ready for fork over $$$$$

AMG = all automatics.

I would avoid a W203 (2002 C32 AMG) like the plague. For some reason, the AMG models are very maintenance-prone. My bro's car was usually in the shop once every 3 months for various reasons. He kept it almost 4 years (he dumped it before the warranty expired). He got sick of the 'return to workshop' error on the display. He'll never buy a MB again.

And, as you mention, US$14k ... sounds too good to be true ... there's probably something they're not telling you.

Deal sounds way too sketchy.
