What is my CLS worth
2006 CLS55 with 030 package and literally every fact option - 112k msrp
Black on Charcoal - Excellent condition. No dings but a few touched up rock chips. No accidents no stories
21k miles
Kleeman K3+ custom tuned by Corey - 510hp at the wheel (dyno charts in hand on Dynojet with very picky correction factor
Kleeman headers, pulley, ECU, Sport cats
IC pump, t stat
Vallano VSH Black center with polished lip20x9.5 20X 11.5 with New contis (305s in the rear with 030 package)
Renntech ELM
Looking to basically make a quick sale as I don't have time to haggle. What is a fair price? I know the market is soft and I know mods don't get me much. Just want to know what to offer it for. Just bought a Cayenne Turbo S to replace it as my daily for business. Thanks

I did a little looking at auction prices. Your car will fall in the above average condition, if it's as clean as you say.
Last week 23 sold at Manhiem Auctions. I won't mention the prices I have seen, but a private party sale should sell for 58k-62k ,of coarse if the buyer knows what mods are worth then maybe more 
Remember that these are not auction prices but a fair market price. PM me if you need more info. Good Luck

I would say 55K would be a reasonable sale
50K would be a quick sale
I know it's not what you want to hear, but I've been keeping my eye out when I'm bored online.

I will have pics up this weekend. Car is being detailed today. Thanks for all the PMs. Some were stupid offers but those that were realistic were appreciated and will be replied to when the pics go up.
I have a trade bid on the Cayenne Turbo S for 57k and a buy bid from a Benz dealer for 52.5 cash. I am looking for low to mid 60s and believe I will get it if I am patient but not sure I want to wait that long. In my location these cars are selling higher since there are so few of them but there are also fewer buyers. I really want it to go somewhere the current setup will be appreciated.
There is nothing like the presence of a blacked out slammed CLS on 305s that sounds like a 60s muscle car while having the lux of a Benz. Especially when it can back it up easily in a straight line. I am at 4500' elevation and up here I can walk a Z06 up to 110 and pretty much have the Viper crowd in complete fear. Boost is really nice with some elevation. Up here 63s get walked by stock 55s by 5 legnths to 125. I will miss this car terribly but I just need a more practical daily driver like a 650hp Cayenne Turbo ;-)
Thanks for all I have learned from this forum. Will be watching for info the SL65 black!

However, a quick sale might only bring what you state.
Sounds like a one of a kind-can't wait to see the pics.

You consider maybe selling the mods separately? You might do better that way.

Here's mine on autotrader.
This car is perfect and I mean PERFECT. Designo option was not common this year.
I am not sure if they put new tires on it or not but I got considerably less on the trade than they are asking ($10,000 range).
My concern is that prices are still dropping and I also got a $13,000 discount on the CPO car I bought so I let it go at the price I did as the offer was only good for a few more days.
Call it haste but this car lost half its value in less than 3 years. D@MN

I feel it would go for 55k, considering the prices are going nowhere but down. Also when does the warranty go out? If the warranty is dead in say 5 months I would say 55k would be a godsend. Does anyone else think the warranty end date affects the price significanty (ie > than 3k)
