I have yet to hear of a 2012 sell for less than a grand below msrp. You might find an older model in the 60-70k range, but the resale value is pretty high. In fact it has the 2011 residual value award.

People are losing their shirts on some of these AMGs (if buying or financing), if leasing, the decision against a GT-R is even more confusing. It's just very hard to understand why the choice of the c63 AMG over a GT-R, ...Any GT-R for that matter, given that he has posted nothing but accolades for the GT-R. I'm not sure I'm with ya on resale, a quick browse on NAGTROC yielded many great offers and opprotunities. Considering how rare the GT-R is there sure is a lot of turnover and swapping. I think Kingleh's Alpha GT-R is even for sale, Alpha GT-R 700whp, I would strongly consider that car if I were in the market, I loved Kingleh's M3 before he sold it...
Given the same options, AMG vs. GT-R, I would be in a 2009, 2010 GT-R or 2011 doesn't matter what it is but 75-85k is better spent on a GT-R.
A little off topic, But I would just love to see how this thread would play out if it were GT-R vs. c63AMG and I posted how the c63amg coupe is a wannabe sports car, and gets punished in everywhere way by a GT-R, just seems odd how supportive he was about the GT-R annihilating the M3, and is garbage in comparison, but the c63amg coupe is where he decided to put his money. Rather odd end to that one...
