It's time to sell my 2012 C63 AMG Black Series. I absolutely love the car but I'm a manual person and I've been really wanting to get back into a manual. I will say, I was surprised at the amount of attention this thing gets...even before I start it up, lol. If you know the Black Series, you know that these are extremely rare. To the best of my knowledge there are four others in the USA with this color (Designo Magno Alanite Grey). From what I’ve found this is one of 104 brought into the US in 2012, then 26 more were imported in 2013. Total worldwide there’s 800. It's an absolutely epic car/color and really cool to see. You rarely see a factory matte color car.
The car has clear bra from the front to the back of the doors. It has the full carbon fiber package, optional rear seats, AMG Performance Media Package, Weistec Headers, Weistec Full Exhaust, Weistec Tune, ROW Intake (Rest Of World), & TCU Valve/Tune upgrade. I still have the factory parts as well. The car also has a factory warranty on it. I’ll have to check on how much is remaining.
The sound this thing makes is epic and from the cabin it’s surprisingly quiet. Currently she sits with about 18,100 miles but I drive it occasionally, so that will change.
I could go on and on about everything the Black Series has in regards to rarity, performance, handling, etc...but the guys on this forum know all of that I'm sure.
If you have any questions feel free to ask!
Btw, I was considering selling this a while back and I had two or three PPI's done. The car is in pristine condition and I have all the receipts of those PPI's to show that. If another buyer would like to do a PPI, I can schedule it or get the vehicle to a dealership you'd like that is local to me, but you'll have to pay for the PPI.
Price - <strike>$87,995</strike> Last price drop $85,000 OBO - Only trade I'm looking for in an R8 Spyder, manual. I've found a car I'm interested in too, so feel free to make reasonable offers.
Willing to help arrange shipping. Car will also come with an indoor Black Series car cover.
These are the only two blemishes I can spot on the car. One is the clear bra, it seems to have been pushed up a bit. Really not even noticeable. The other is a small chip on one of the spokes of the front passenger side wheel. (I'm 99% sure it's that wheel...I can double check.)
What's great about this car (like the M3/4) is that you get all the performance and handling, but if you want to toss a bike in the back, go ahead. Or a couple sets of golf clubs..This actually has the practicality that you don't get with other sports cars...If I am not mistaken, it even has a sunroof or at least a glass roof! Actually not a fair comparison with the M3, this is quite a bit more car. If I had the funds, this would be it.
Man, I really wish I would have done a before and after, but I didn't. -_-
I know Weistec has some pretty sweet claims as to what their tune/headers/exhaust do for power, but I just don't have any numbers to back those up. I know she screams though!

I had a 996TT with a Evoms kit on it before this which was a fun car for sure. This is just such a beast and you can't beat this NA engine! Either way you'll be in a good spot!

Totally nailed it! That's the main thing I love about this car. I golf a ton so being able to keep my set of clubs in it is epic and if I being someone else with their clubs will fit too! Unlike when I had my first R8 my gf had to ride with the clubs between her legs in the front seat, lol!
You're correct about the sunroof too! (And its massive!)
Here's the plan fellas, you give the significant other flowers, chocolates, etc...then mention how you're buying an epic Mercedes...no way she can say no!
The bank is not giving me what I want. I guess it does not help the interest rates are up at my credit union. I have 75k to spend though. GLWS. I wish I could have gotten it to had with the family hauler.
