!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! priced at $17000. Only stated issue is that it doesnt start, but the suspension doesnt look right either. Would you risk it?

Heck no. Is it even a real C63? Either way, I bet it is a total money pit.

No. It would probably cost at least 1 V6 Mustang to repair that poor W221.

CP. To me one of these S Classes is nowhere worth any sort of cash when you can get one of these which are more reliable (I think) and in better condition for less money...

It may not be fast, but big Benz sedans aren’t meant to be fast; they’re meant for comfort, class, and elegance.

You might as well lose your money being robbed at gunpoint. The lows and adrenaline highs you’ll get from it are just about the same.

Plus, you might actually get robbed at gunpoint if you try to buy this CP.

X1000000. Love w126, w124, w201. Get the euro lights and bilstein shocks and hr springs for a sport height and they’ll handle better than most cars today.

How much would it cost even for a brake job for a car like that?


Kinja'd!!! bob and john > BaconSandwich is tasty.

reading on the forums, rotors are $1k EACH. + 200/side for merc OEM pads (or something decent from the after market) + labour...

3600 is what one guy got quoted. for front brakes only.

I’m going to say NP. But only for someone like me. These still go for around $50k used last time I checked which leaves you $30k to play with. Put $10k into it, sell it for $40k, bam $10k profit. Considering the accident it probably has wiring or control unit issues. So it would just take some detective work to track down the problem. Certainly not something for the faint of heart, weak of [diagnostic] mind, or someone who doesn’t have a factory scan tool.

I would be very afraid of this.

The reason is a friend went to look at a similar situation car. “runs, but it won’t start”.

The seller had disabled something on the car so it would not run.

Friend and a tech got it running and it sounded like it had a bad rod, wrist pin, piston.
