what it's worth <> what I'd pay

I'd say it's worth 45-50k depending on options and condition.

You sure have no clue about the G55.

1) it has no available options
2) 40-50K?! (seriously)? add another 20-30K$ to that

It has NO available options? The car just comes fully loaded with EVERYTHING? Was it like that for the entire life of the G55, or just the newer ones?

Don't forget that the entire life of the G55 is relatively short. It was only introduced in 2005 but yes, it never had any options ever since.

I thought they first came out in like 2002. Looks like I know absolutely nothing about it either. I thought they came out with the N/A 55 enigne that powered the W210 E55, but I guess I was wrong.

The G55 was first introduced in the US for the MY03. It utilized a naturally aspirated V8 producing 349 hp. For the US MY05 the motor was upgraded with a Kompressor or Supercharger producing 469 and later 500 hp. Along with the standard US MY05 G55 the limited edition G55 Grand Edition, (one year only) was introduced. The US G55 no cost options included a choice of either Black Piano or Natural Maple Wood, Black, Light Brown or Porcelain Designo Leather.

Oops, I misread the OP... thought he said it was an 05. That's what they are going for around here.

40-50 for an 05 makes more sense

Good call on the intro in 03. Omitted the fact that there was a no kompressor version. As far as choosing trim and leather, to me, they're not options.

Well not to be rude but if they weren't options you wouldn't have the 'option' to choose one vs. the other. Just saying...

No worries. By definition, yes, but to me, options implies cost; especially with cars.
