I think the 507 is going to hold its value better than a standard c63. They are now no longer being sold and I reckon about 200 will be in existence. I decided to sell my Griffith 500 to buy a white 507 coupe seehttp://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=1191651 and I am delighted to have done so. The 507 has approx 3bhp less than the black series but has all the refinements of the standard c63... it is absolutely amazing! I didn't finance mine (to keep the costs down) and I paid £59013 with Harmon Kardon and black 19 wheels. Insurance is £200 a year, mpg has been between 22 and 27 for average driving (18 spirited). My view is this will be a relatively cheap supercar to own . My target for depreciation, insurance and maintenance for 3 years is £500 a month, give or take £10% ... Anyone else care to take a guess on my losses ?

Supercar? Hmmmm.

£12k might be about right.
