To the forum members that abide by the rules. Thank you. To the rest of you:
1) I am aware that the price is ridiculous. It's a rare car especially in this color and to be sitting here on the ground available for no wait. I realize this car isn't a Ferrari (who has mastered the art of markup) but I believe that it still can be sold for profit
2) I intended to keep the car but as toys come and go there is an opportunity for me to get something else that I really wanted. Yes this black series is a toy and I think there might be enough demand so that I don't lose out on the car at all.
3) why the hate on seeing if I can get the price? Merely testing the waters and I have no problem with taking a lower offer. Instead of being disrespectful how about make an offer than makes it worth it to you then see how it goes?
It's a fantastic car and despite what greedy bastard anyone on this forum might make me out to be, it's for sale to someone who will appreciate it more than me. Thanks.

no...last year the requirement became 30 days as a member and 30 posts...as far as commenting on price you are welcome to private message the seller any comments you have about price that you like...however, if you make them in open forum you make yourself subject to sanctions so knock it off

I've dropped the asking price to $149,995. Still open to offers. There are now 3 white C63 Black Series in California. None are optioned like this, but now its not the only one.
Car now has 109 miles. Car went to Cars&Coffee in irvine last weekend, and then to the Number 13 movie premiere in Newport (Gumball 3000 crew).

A car is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. If you find someone to pay your asking price, more power to you. I don't condone it but there are plenty of suckers out there. GLWS.

You dropped over 20k in price. But you are still asking for more then you paid.
GLWS, more power to you if it sells
I see what you are saying about rare options. and rare color. But keep in mind this is a modern day production car. NOT a 20-30 year old classic muscle car with some options that made it a one of kind
and not to mention that the car has been titled, even if it was barely used. It is now a used car. try trading it back to the dealer and see what they give you. I assure you, it will be substantially less then your buy price.
My local MB dealer just took a 2011 C63 designo in. The guy buys alot of cars and barely drives them. This one has 1100 miles. He paid 165k range a few months ago. They gave him 120k-what are the stats of a 2011 black on black CL63 biturbo, with EVERY option on the east coast?? probably just as rare as yours.
Like I said, hope you sell it for a profit, but have you ever thought of just enjoying that beast!?? Have fun with it.

i think the op can ask any price he wants....the market will determine what the car is worth and in the meantime we should let him alone to sell his gorgeous car. i like the fact that there is a rear seat and a sunroof in this version...much more practical....

We live in a free marker economy and thus the OP is free to ask a million bucks for the car if he wants to. In the end, the car will be worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. By the same token, most people would think we are all a bunch of idiots for spending thousands of dollars on upgrades which offer a ROI of 20 cents on the dollar at resale.... Leave the guy alone. Nice car btw....
