Mercedes Benz C55
I think its time...
So, im considering letting the C55 go. Its got 80,000 miles on it and the CEL is thrown due to the aftermarket exhaust ( probably the 02 sensor ). What do you guys think is a fair asking price keeping in mind the mods and everything.

I'd at least pull codes and make sure what the light is on for, if it just needs an O2 sensor it will cost you less to replace it yourself then what you'd probably loose on the sale.
Off topic: do you have a sound clip of your car? The Evosport headers are shorties right? Shame they cost twice as much as they should.

Did you put the headers in with the stock cats at first before you changed to the high flows? I really didn't want to mess with the primary cats (at least right now) to save money, but I don't know if the sound will be worth the $2500 for the headers in that case.

Seems like market with those miles is the very low 20s, mid-high teens. What options do you have on car?? Ever been wrecked. Clean Car Fax?? ( although that can mean nothing too)

I bought my '06 about 6 months ago (not with the wheels currently on it...it had cheap aftermarket wheels)...my car had 80k and was prob not in as good a shape as yours. It did/does have the K&N filters and res delete. I had settled on a price of $17500 and ended up talking the guy down another $500 because it needed a major detail job inside and out. I thought that was a "good deal". Hope this helps.
