Going to look at a 2005 C55
Hello everyone, I'm really interested in this 2005 C55 with 45K miles that is for sale at a local dealer, is there anything I should look for? I don't really know much about C55's so if there any major issues I should look for I'd appreciate your help?

As far as Mercedes go, the C55 has been proven to be one of the more reliable models. Good luck!

This dealer is very close to me, it is not a real name dealer but has been there for a long time. If the car checks out the price actually seems fair to me, I'd try for 19k OTD. My guess is the car has been hit. Definitely keep an eye out.

Thats what I was thinking too. I live very close also, Grand ave. and York Rd. I'm very close friends with the owner of Megan Auto Works located by north ave. and Ardmore, they only work on Mercs so I'll take it there and have them look at it.

Price seems "fair" to me - not excessively high and not a bargain. If the car is mint and there is nothing of concern in the car fax then I'd say its a good deal. May want to have it inspected at a local MB dealer first - for peace of mind. Could be best $200 you ever spent.
