2003 Mercedes-Benz C-Class 2003 Mercedes C32 AMG Amg Supercharged. 1 of 878 Made in 2003. RARE Collectible

Description

Hello and Thank You for viewing my auction.  I sold my warehouse and am now selling off all the toys that I have. The C32 was made from 02 -04 in limited numbers . The last photo shows the Production Numbers. The 03 and 04 are highly desirable as they did not have the radiator issues the 2002 models were plagued with. This is a beautiful example of a bright Silver exterior with a beautiful black leather interior. These were hand built engines by one master mechanic on each C32 at the AMG factory in Germany. I've only seen 3 in my lifetime and I had 2 of them. I had a perfect 04 that I sold awhile ago and then came across this one and now that  my warehouse is sold and have nowhere to finish it,I decided to sell this rare beauty. I purchased it just as it is and have not done anything to it. Has misfires on passenger side and running terribly on 3 cylinders. The rear SAM module is also bad and I bought another but have not installed it. Has around 150k miles. Interior is like new. The center console covers are in trunk (previous owner was in process of adding bluetooth). Has super rare C55 amg wheels 18 inch . Passenger side air filter housing is in trunk. I removed it awhile ago to check coils and plugs but never got around to checking anything. I will only sell to an enthusiast who will make it perfect again. If it does not sell on this auction I will begin parting it out. I know it's worth a lot of money in parts but it's a low production Amg supercharged that needs to be saved and will make a great investment as well. I have a list of a few people already wanting some parts. I know it will bring a small fortune in parts but would rather see it restored and held onto by a collector. These were only produced from 2002 through 2004. You may have never seen one as there were not many made when new and with the 2002's that were plagued with the bad radiators that destroyed most of them and now fast forward 20 years with the C32s that were in accidents and parted out for parts and that makes it next to impossible to see one today. These are very powerful cars with 350 horsepower stock thanks to the powerful hand built (each engine built by one Master AMG tech in Germany) supercharged motor. There are examples out there with 500 horsepower with minor tweaks.  The transmission in this AMG is the same used in the SLR AMG and can handle 800 horsepower easily.  The SAM module in the trunk is bad so a bunch of the electrical things do not work.  If I recall correctly it was wipers,turn signals,some of the dashboard items.  The previous owner said it has around 150k miles which cant be read at the moment on the dashboard until the SAM module is changed but he piurchased it in 2018 with 140k and being he was a truck driver he rarely drove it so the 150k sounds about right.   The battery was bad and I believe the previous owner trying to charge the bad battery contributed to the SAM Module failure.  I will put a temporary battery of some sort to be able to put the vehicle in neutral to make it easier for transport.  International bidders are welcomed and I can store at my residence for 30 days until the shipment process is complete.  I have one key,and a clean Florida Title that will be released once vehicle is paid for.  Once again Vehicle starts and sounds terrible.  There were misfire codes from the 3 cylinders on passenger side.  I have no idea if its the SAM Module,coil packs,plugs,relays,fuses etc as I have not looked at it. Im sure it will be an easy fix for someone. The last 5 photos were of my 2004 to give you an idea of what this 2003 can look like with some love. I actually think it will look nicer than the 04 because of the 18 inch C55 wheels that fill the wheel wells nicer on the C32 rather than the 17 inch wheels that come with it. These early hand assembled AMG's are great investment vehicles and an investment that you can enjoy. Now is the time to buy while values are still affordable...in 10 years it will be the "I should have,I could have,I would have" lol.  There is a 0 non refundable deposit due within 24 hours. Happy Motoring!  Here is a link to the C32 if you are not familiar with the vehicle.
