They just guaranteed me 4.59....ran into a problem w/ the CTT I am trading in, it is now throwing codes, just got back from my mechanic and it is the hydraulic air pump, a 1K fix.

We cleared the code, but I am going to be honest about the problem and eat the repair cost.

Here is my concern: They have promised me 25K trade in...now 24 for my CTT w/ 63K miles. Will they try and jack me around after I drive all the way out there (280 miles)?

I wish it were a dealer closer to me, much easier to walk that way.

here is a new twist to my search: A 2009 E63 with less than 9k on the OD is for sale that is close to me for 66K.

I am going to take a look at it before the C63.

I have driven the E63 and the C63 w/ the P30 performance pkg back to back on a closed track and I really liked the E63 but the C63 was just more fun. You could really feel the size difference. The C63 was so much more " on the edge ". It really made hammering it around a track hairy but also insanely fun. The E63 was a brute but I did not enjoy it nearly as much. Just my .02, Gonna be good either way.

Well, something has happened on the domestic scene that is canceling the purchase anyway.

Now that is a smart statement. I realize having cars for fun is important but some people take it to far. They put cars in front of everything else including family,savings & schooling for there children.Make sure all your family responsibilities have been met before wasting money on a depreciating asset. OK I will now get off the soap box..

I agree, if you don't have a retirement fund, 529 accounts set up for the kids, 401k matching maxed out, deferred comp maxed at work and a little money playing for you in the market, you have no business constantly buying/selling cars (well, I shouldn't be telling anyone what they can/can't do, but that is my personal philosophy).
