There is one in my area for $15,000 with 87k miles should I trade in my gtp and buy it or keep the gtp? My mom said she would give me 7k to put towards it.

Benz' let alone AMGs take mucho $$$ to maintain and repair. Keep the GTP.
even with that much mileage theres gotta be something very wrong with that car for it to be that cheap. it was over 100k new and have a supercharged 5.4 with almost 500 horses. is that price just for the engine? lol
If it's a real AMG then it's probably been whored out (run hard and put away wet) to the max and that's why it's so cheap.
I dorve it and it seemed fine. Anyways if I don't get it my mom will probably buy it or an 07 srt-8 300c. Personally I want her to get the srt-8
the v8 is N/A and has 350 hpQuote:

those AMGs depreciate value ridiculously quick, plus like mentioned already, MB costs a ton of money in maintenance.
No way you'll be able to afford that car man. If something breaks your ass is gonna be on that bus lol, it's gonna cost a crapload to fix.
Get a Corvette, yep.
Overnight some parts from Germany and it'll be in the 10's in no time.
Then pick the parts up in the back of a Ford Lighting, German Pual Walker.Quote:

When parts DO actually need replacing they tend to be expensive if they are MB only parts. Anything available aftermarket is actually pretty dang cheap. still... not worth it to me. I'd rather mod my Firehawk and watch the little punk in his AMG go from smug to shock when he loses to an american car.
not to mention insurance has to be kinda high i'd imagne.
sweet. Mercedes are cool ass cars, i just bought a CL55.Quote:
