This seems to be a good deal. Anyone know anything about this car?

The Carfax shows the steering wheel was changed!

No clear-bra on the car, but no rock chips either. The car comes with "touch up paint". I think they might have re-painted the front bumper.

Four owners, but the last owner sold it in 2013. Sat in a NC dealer for two years.

A 19k mile car for that cheap?? There has to be a story.

Rotary Rocket

I am interested in buying this car. Can anyone on this forum help with the VIN or know anything about the history of this car?

Thank you in advance.

Rotary Rocket

Well...I bought this car.

Spent the last two days chasing down its history through the dealerships it had been serviced in and she is a clean one.

It is also my first ever site unseen purchase through the web. I am looking forward to my first "black" experience.

Cheers.

Congrats ! They are a blast to drive and great color combo !!

Congrats!! The pricing was unbelievable on it.

As for the sight unseen, I had to do the same thing with mine. You will love it when you get it though. Are you having it shipped to you, or flying out and driving it home?

Thank you all. I am truly excited.

Car is getting shipped out. Heading out to SEMA on Sunday, so the car should be here when I get back.

I think the front grill is painted.

The last owner of this car was one of the founders of Blockbuster. I guess he was not active on this forum.

In the description it mentions it has blue tooth. Was blue tooth an OEM option, or have they added an aftermarket?

Bluetooth was not an OEM option. Only option was an ipod connector. Looks like the wheels were painted also.

SEMA, rotary, rocket... bunny? NorCal? is this someone I know of? lol

primecut

Congrats! That's a great deal.

I've noticed on some BSes like this one where the wheels look different than the standard OEM set. The standard ones are full polished, but these seem to be painted black on the side of the spokes. Anyone know if these are actually aftermarket wheels or different versions of OEM?

ET550

There is only one OEM version (although 2 different manufacturers). These wheels were either painted after the fact or are aftermarket wheels.

MOFLO

These tires also sit flush to the fender lip so there must be spacers involved, aftermarket wheels with larger offsets, or larger width tires. I plan to meet up and check out the car after he receives it. I'm curious to which scenario it is....

Rotary Rocket

The dealer said the rims have "AMG" written on them, but are painted.

Car arrives on Monday afternoon.

Rotary Rocket

Probably...

Drop me a PM and let me know how I know you.

Cheers.

Give us an update!

Love the BS. Such a brute. I have named it Arnold.

Took it to my mechanic for a through check out, all aces. I think the car has been through an automated car wash (three times). There are three "scrapes" on the left front lower control arm. It looks to be from a car wash guide.

Put on 3M clear protection on hood, bumper, headlights, door edges, and fender flairs.

The wheels are stock, but have been painted. It looks to have 20MM wheel spacers on it as well.

Love the power, got into it with some variation of a new Mustang (they all look the same to me) getting on the freeway. He got smoked. Once at freeway speeds he catches up and goes flying by me...that's when you know they are pissed...hehe.

Let down by the tranny (went into it eyes wide open); this car NEEDS a proper manual. Already PMing with Ralf to try to improve the experience. He now has 3 options, but I am not totally understanding what each option does (past option 1). I need a German translator.

Also surprised by lack of exhaust noise past idle. Coming from a AM Vantage with a Quick Silver exhaust it is not as loud.

It also came with a built in Escort radar detector. Love it.

She has (I think) the optional ipod kit as well. I see a female auxiliary port in the right side of the glove box. There is also another Aux port next to it (rectangular female with a rectangular mail center peace). I have to do my research to better understand these two Aux ports.

Found out more info from this forum about my car.
It has Kleemann headers, high flow cats, ECI tune, high flow throttle bodies, Euro spec air boxes, Kleemann LSD, and the light weight Evosport rotors front and back, 12mm spacers front and back (painted to match the wheels).

Dealer did not tell me (I am sure did not know) about any of these mods. All mods done at C2 Design in FL. I will be calling them tomorrow to get more info.

Would you guys think with the bolt-ons she is putting out about 550HP?

MOFLO

Just saw the other post as well. Nice mods! Must sound mean!

Any issues with CA SMOG so far while trying to register it?

Rotary Rocket

It should be OK, it has cats and a Kleemann manifold rather than LTH, or STH.

Meeyatch1

So how much are you loving this car now that you have had it for a while?

Rotary Rocket

One word...BEAST.
