Sold my C55

Hello guys, I want to thank everyone that extended a hand to me when i needed help with my car in modding and repairs as guys here were great. I ended up trading the c55 in for a truck (gmc 2500) due to not be able to use the c55 as a dd b/c work is far so i didn't want to stack up the miles and the wear and tear on it and end up worst on the value of the car due to high mileage. Well the car was plenty fun and i enjoyed it the time i had it but sometimes s!!t happens what can i say. I do have the HRE wheels that i am selling as well as the c/f renntech airbox which i will give a really good deal on b/c i need to get wheels and a tune for this slow *** truck lol. Thanks again guys its been fun here in the forum.

Well, at least you still have the AMG hat, don't you? Wear it with pride until you drive one again.

Good luck with the truck. Won't your gas mileage be about the same as the C55?

Yes i do have the hat which by the way its a great looking one. I will always wear it with pride and most likely i will end up getting a c63 in the future.

Sorry to see you go.

I always enjoyed reading your thoughts about the C55 mods.

Good luck on future projects.

Did you trade it in or sell it? if we see a noob pop up here with your car anytime soon we will be sure to let you know. So what mods did you leave on the car?

I left the LSD,cams, and headers. I traded the car in they gave me 25000.

Before you leave here. You being one of few who had a C55 with an LSD, is the LSD worth it? or do you have a quick review of it in a C55?

I think the best mod for a C55 besides headers was in fact the LSD. Without that the car was very hard to control at the track. Remember I am a drag racing type of person that's why it was so rewarding to me imo.
