C32 AMG vs C55 AMG

I'm thinkin of upgrading the car sometime in the near to not so near future depending on the situation. What do you guys think: Try to order a brand new 05 C55 AMG or try to find a used C32 with like 20 to 30k miles on it?

C55 fo sho. even if it's not S/C, (which i actually like about the C55...love N/A) which some people may argue is better, i think the mild changes they've made to the C55 made it all that much better.

big big big price difference...you will pay mid 30's for the C32 and mid 50's for the C55. depends on how much money you want to spend.

me too bro! I would have chosen it over the S4 if it werent for the family and awd, the 10k price difference for our crappy weather just wasnt worth it. Now if I lived in Florida that would have made a big difference

Instead of the C32 or C55, why not the C43. The C43 has a V8 AMG engine and the luxury of MB. But then again if you want a fast four door for 50 g's, wait for V8 M3 coming out, dunno if it will have AWD or RWD, but it should be a hell of alot faster than the C55. Btw the M4 will be the coupe.
