Thinking of letting her go!

06 CLS55 030 AMG All options excluding distronic. Installed Carlsson electronic lowering module and euro mirrors (folds/unfolds when locked/unlocked). Black/Black/Alcantara steering wheel & liner. 7k miles since new in May 2006. Has 100k mile warranty purchased from new. Has wheel guard (replaced if damaged) purchased from new. Has interior guard protection, for seats and carpets, purchased from new.

The wife & I are launching a restaurant in San Francisco and is limited on parking spaces (and time to even drive it! It's been garaged and covered for the past six months.) That's it, that's the line. Make me an offer. This is not a lease, but a purchase.

Thanks for looking!

a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
acv,
Good luck with selling your car and with your new investment. The restaurant industry is quite competitive but as long as the food is very good and the prices are right, word-of-mouth will travel far.

Damn...you guys are GOOD. Should have deferred to this forum before we went and spent an arm + leg to name/label/brand the shop. It's something very special and in the last developmental stages at this point...I'll post invites to soft opening "special" for those who have responded here! I hear the mayor of SF will be there...unless you're not a mayor of SF fan??

At any rate, some of the things I listed were some of the things I purchased from the dealer when I purchased this car. I bought 100k warranty - I always do, and only with purchased cars, not leased ones obviously. So, the wheel guard thing was an insurance policy for the wheels, just in case I hit some crazy pothole or something and bent the rims...they'll replace it. I think it's just a novelty, but bought it anyway. Trying to get top dollar for the car, what do you think it'll go for? I put it on craigslist already, but I put it at some off the wall price. Just trying to gauge interest. Still in it for 94k...I know, I know...but it was a mess, had to refi and that's what blew it up! Crazy move that simply could not be helped. Like getting stuck in the rain.

Still got the carbon fiber interior kit, with the keyless go shift knob! $2500? Any takers?

Back to the restaurant - No, it's not Vietnamese...although..hum...it's a specialty dessert thing, albeit VERY healthy and wholesome. Anyone from SF out there?
