Wouldn't most of the people driving those sorts of vehicles prefer to buy new though? And not touch something that's (eww) second hand?

Not sure if a good buy (because of rebuilt status, if that matters to you) but does anybody know whose car this is?

Depends why it's a rebuilt, and how long you plan to keep it.

saw/heard a C63 this morning. Happy to see them drop to (under) 30k

Obviously only a good buy if the pesky issues have been dealt with.

Been for sale for 4-5 months. Amazing cars, but damn are the headbolts a scary issue.

i can see the rust in the mount for the TC rod. Its in the transmission picture. I love 240z's but you can buy shitty cars that are driveable. What do you want from a 240z? Something that is stock. I dont. I want something that has a few mods to make it handle better, sound better and go faster.

"No expense was spared on the repair"................ first shot of rear-end clearly shows the back bumper improperly gapped and pushed into the quarter panel

If they couldn't even get that right I'd hate to think what else is fudged underneath.

Ad says minor rear end accident in 2016. Just a fender bender enough to write off this 40K car.

With lower kilometers, a clean title, and if the price is negotiable, I'd say this would be a better buy if everything checks out.

that car is going to be 16 years old next month.. nearing 200,000km's for over 6g's?
