Want to trade your CLS for a wide body SL65?

I know trades rarely work out but why not ask?

I have a 05 SL65 with 30k miles that I just recently installed a Prior Design black edition wide body kit on.

Suddenly, I find myself a family man and in need of a back seat. My first choice would we a CLS55/63. Before I list the SL for sale I figured I'd check to see if any CLS owners would be interested in a trade.

PM me.

The build was done by BenzWorks so needless to say it was done RIGHT. Check out the build thread here:

Damn man. That is a sexy ride and one I have been looking into for a while. If I lived in your country I would trade my 55 any day for this.! Good luck and congratulations on the family "upgrade"

Wow she's hot. I'd offer you mine but I doubt you'd be interested in a CLS55 with 105k miles on it...

I'd do it, but the values of our cars are a long way apart. If I could afford an SL65 right now, I'd have one already. Nice car though!

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I've responded to all the PMs and hope to be a member of the CLS family soon!

My daily driver is a 2000 selvage tittle chevy cav that is to beat to even be considered a beater. Needless to say, having a family on the way means the cav has to go and a nice family car + the SL is a luxury I cant afford.

So the SL has to go as well and I see no better fit for me than a CLS.

I certainly had terrible timing; getting engaged on the heels of putting $30k+ into my two seater. But it was certainly a fun project and would be really cool if the car ended up with someone on the board.

I'll keep you guys posted.
