A good deal for a MBWorld member

I have an opportunity to buy a Ferrari F430 and I think I want to go through with it. I cant have 4 cars and the Benz has been seeing little use so I figured it would be the one to go. I just finished the car. 2006 Benz CLS 55 AMG with a full Kleeman K2 package producing 511hp at the rear wheels. System was professionally installed, tuned and dynoed by an authorized Benz/Kleeman dealer. The car has every option available including the 030 package with includes bigger rotors and brakes, alacantara headliner and wheel, and limited slip differential. Car also has parktronic, distronic, trunk opener, nav/cd/sirius and every other option that was available at time of ordering. I have added the Vellano 20's and a lowering module as well as tinting the windows. The lowering module is fully adjustable and the ride height can be returned to stock in minutes. Price at deliverey was $112k before TT&t. The Kleeman package was $10k, the Vellano wheels were $6500 and the renntech lowering module was $1300. The car has just over 9000 miles and is absolutely perfect, not a scratch, swirl or mark in the paint. This car has never been in the rain, is garage kept and detailed on a regular basis. Warranty is still in effect for 3 more years or 41000 more miles. $99k or best offer.

Damn, that is one killer car. I'd be all over it if didn't already have a CLS55.

That said, cannot really disagree with letting it go for an F430!

My friend's dad told me that he had to trade in a 360 first before he was allowed to purchase a 430...

Maybe he doesn't have the connections! Anyways, that thing looks sick...good luck with sale!

OK, the F car is in and I need to move this car this week. I am taking any serious offer over $90k that will close the deal this week. This is a screaming deal.

No longer car shopping...
I just bid $35K for the car on eBay. I am fully aware that it won't go anywhere near that level but a car like this deserves MUCH better representation. I loved my last 55 and would LOVE to have an "enhanced" 55 like this one but don't think my wife will allow me to part with more than $40K for ANY car...unfortunately. However, I will be watching the sale (but no more nidding). Looks amazing and worth every penny of the offer you extended here on this forum. If I win the lottery Weds night I'll give you a call and we can "work out a deal"! LOL In any case, good luck!

Heck, the wife would kill me but I'd pay him $56K. I don't think that's gonna happen though. He's probably getting something like $80-$85K from the F dealership and then the tax implications are better for trading than separate sale so I expect that his $90K figure is probably about as low as he would be willing to go

It sucks that I will probably have to sell this car to someone not on the forum. I would much prefer someone here to buy it just because I know it will be well cared for and they will really appreciate the car. Dont ever complain that you guys dont get offered deals...... here is one sitting waiting for a buyer.
