V's hold their value, used ones are not a lot cheaper then new for a 09 or 10. Just look for what their actually selling and moving for whether private or dealer, it's actually held value very well for an American car. Now Benz on the other hand...lol, e55 dropped like a rock... not even being an 'amg' or limited model helps lol.

Really?

For the record I have nothing against the CTS-V. I posted my .02 cents.

Use the information I provided with 10K miles as a bench mark compared to all three models. % off of MSRP will show my orginal comment was true.

I have a black/black on my floor right now with a black out package on it. It is one bad MOFO.

511HP in a sedan

How about a E550 we have?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...e=STRK:MESE:IT

So these cars sold w/ no options, and all sold for MSRP.......how about actual transaction price vs resale.

Bingo...

Previous owner of an E55 here, all Benz models drop like a rock, feel sorry for all the 65' owners who get destroyed in resale lol.

No one is talking about a E55... not even in the same league as the other three cars

These are actual transactions....what options are you going to put on a C63 or CTS V?

Sweet looking Jag, but it's over budget.
Thanks

Really???????
