You honestly should trade before your warranty is up if it isn't already.

I was trying to sell my CLK a while back but no takers, the market is just too soft right now, however if I can get a fair trade from a dealer I might just go for it. Luckily I still have a tiny bit of the factory warranty plus the one year certified warranty after that.

Anyone see the May edition mag of Car and Driver? They compared the M3 sedan to the ISF and they were able to pull a 12.6 quarter time from the M3 vice 12.8 from the ISF. I have to say both are some fast moving luxury mobiles.

It is nearly impossible to sell non-exotic luxury cars private party. Trading is your best bet, and trading in with a warranty is even better when it comes to $50k+ vehicles.

Yea that's true. I really need to get into a lease since I get tired of cars after 2-3 years.

That's what I did with my 335. I only put 12k miles on my MINI in the almost 2 years I had it, so I moved to a 24/10k lease with this car.

First, What is Dragva?


2ndly, I think the the C63 is a nice car but not comparable to the M3, just like everyone else is saying. Now compare it to may like the M5... I mean I dont even know what to compare it to.

3rdly, if I had to compare it to the M3, Id take the Mercedes.

Holy hell look at that torque difference!

I'm not sure which I'd want, probably the M3, but I'd rather have a GT-R or a Z06 than either one of these cars.

Yeah I was shocked at the torque difference myself. That's not a small amount by any means.
