Should I replace my C63 for this

[TC M3]

Decided not to buy this car because of obvious reasons :

Would be stuck with that expensive lemon and the car really looks dated.

I had a great deal on a '13 with 1000k miles , would get for $177k tax in. Was too good to be true as cold told me. Car had accident before . Now I'm negotiating an orange one '12 with 1000miles for&185k

$210k for a '14 spider seems Amazing !
I don't wanna pass $180 k on this car

If legit, run, don't walk, to that one. Some low-mile 2013's aren't that cheap...

The problem is I don't love the car enough- yes its hyper fast and a smoking deal but I have to really want the car for 200k or whatever- at the time of purchase. We all know that afterwards I do get bored rather quickly hahahaha.

Dude..... you don't love it?!?! Have you driven one yet? I haven't yet because I haven't reached the tire-kicking stage yet, but I'm getting close. Rob did give me an extended ride-along in his about month ago and I was sold after that. In that space I just don't currently see a better option on styling, performance, drivability, and cachet....

There are people that appreciate and are depending on your car boredom lol , and seriously at that price I doubt you would lose anything on the deal.

Please explain 'buy-back'.

I drove the piss out of one the other day- fastest fucking car I've driven and very impressive in all regards but I also drove the 458 and I just liked it more. Its all subjective but the Italia connected better with my driving/sound emotions and desires. Lookswise the 458 has me as well. And while I do love wasting money on cars- who doesnt LOL- I do worry about what is left to depreciate with this unit. (MP4) It is a brilliant opportunity to get a supercar for cheap though. You can get low miler coupes (2012's) in the 150-160k range... just shocking IMHO.

Usually this means the factory or OEM took the car back from the first purchaser due to malfunction or failure of certain item(s) or via goodwill because of process or performance issues. The factory has to disclose this car as a "buy back" not on title per se but when re allocating via the auction or however its distributed back into the retail chain. Most of the time these buybacks have full factory warranty and even get an extended one at times.

They are pretty much opposites. What I meant was in the price range of the SLS, I would personally choose something else. It didn't impress me like the 911 or the 2015 S65 AMG.

What are you looking for? Daily driver or weekend driver?

I agree with you 100%!

It's gonna be used pretty much daily . Mclaren interests me more now after I had a day with it and loved it especially for the price that can get one

+1
Actually it's a tough decision...Personally, I pick 458 rather than McLaren (and as you said it's subjective) but MP4 is damn fast!

I found this car and it was exactly how I wanted ! 2012 carbon brakes and everywhere else , sport exhaust and 1000 miles .
Msrp was $299k new and I was getting for $185k but unfortunately I called today and someone bought before me ;( not so happy
