Looking for you opinions

So I have looking for a car for a few months now and I have found 3 that fit most of my specifications. I just need your guys help for seeing if they are a good deal and how I should go about to negotiate the price and how much I should pay for each one.

So this one is nice, but the only thing is that is doesn't have all the options I want and is kind of high mileage.

I love the color combo and all of the options in this one, but a little high mileage and not CPO. Two things that stopped me from buying this a couple hours ago when I saw it.

This is an almost perfect car. Very few miles on it, perfect color combo, great option list, but price is starting to get out of my range. If i could get the right price on this, it would be my first choice.

My family is really stuck on a 2010 C300 we saw at the MB dealer next to the BMW dealer. They are ready to sell it for $28,000, CPO 12,000 miles. Nice car, but not a BMW. Only the right price on one of these BMW will get their mind off that Benz. So I really need your helps guys. Thanks in advance.

The third car, white/black, is gorgeous! You will regret not getting a 3 and going with a Benz. I have friends with the new C-Class and they are not impressed with it.. Well one of them is but the other two are sick of it. If you are spending thousands, and can go with one of these cars- especially the third, you will be so happy with it! But good luck.

*also, whats annoying about the C-Class sport? It is the cheapest Mercedes and has the biggest Star on the grille! AHHHH!

Good luck with whatever you get

You are absolutely right! But it's not just my choice, the whole family has to agree on a car, and it's not like they don't like the BMW, its just that the offer MB is giving us and the C300 sport in white and black looks really good. I like the big star in the grille. The C-class does feel like the cheapest Benz from the interior quilty though. Nice design, but the leatherette sucks.

Thanks for the reply!

check out edmunds true market value, american express ZAG (used cars) and KBB trade and add maybe 1 or 2,000 more? also, let them know that the mercedes dealer really wants you to have that c300 but if they will let you have the e90 at a similar price point... i.e. 29-30 grand that would be a pretty good deal

For some of them the edmunds value is higher than the asking price. I was hoping some one could get a galvin value becuase that is really helpful.

I have my reasons for getting a 328i, thanks for your opinion.

Not many 3rd parties have 09/10 and the ones they do have aren't to my specs, at least in my area.
