Looks are subjective, but the old C's look like crap? It's faster stock, but then again, it's an AMG, what do you expect?
Don't MBs break down more often as well? Whether it's CPO, if it's a car you plan on keeping it's not worth it. And I think a more favorable comparison would be against an M3. I think M3's have more of a rep than the AMG C's and they look better. But if it's for a 545, which is probably equal price and power, I dunno. I would still take the good looks of a BMW over the bug-eyed creep that is the MB C-class. Some modding might need to take place on the BMW, but it's a larger sedan than the C and it can only go so far.

I was looking at a c32 when shopping for cars. Ended up with my 525, not nearly as fast, but I love the ride, and handling is great.

Before I bought my 545 I was almost going to buy a C32 but its a smaller car and does not look as good.
