For those looking to purchase a C55 with BBS LMs and KWv2s already installed. I believe this one is owned (or used to be owned) by a member here (1V8C55?).

No this car was originally owned by MikeGPR03, but its dead on for 1v8c55's car.
He sold it to another guy on here and apparently its for sale again.

Note the car had shift paddles installed....

Thats a USF Tag, so the owner probably is in Tampa.

omg, I love this car. BBS LM's just work so well with it... Not loving the roof spoiler though.

It is a good looking ride!

Roof spoiler looks better in CF/on a black car

DRIVEN1

Yep, this is mine and it was Mikes car. I love it but got laid off in September and need to sell it. Going to have to buy something cheap and good gas mileage until life gets a little better.

Hmmm, howcome in this photoshoot it says that it's 1V8C55's car? This was done in CA and it's the exact same pic used in the ad?

Mike I had given me that picture when I bought the car, did not know that picture was not of my car. I had just assumed that it was taken before he had put the 5.5 badges on. Does 1V855 still own the car? Replaced the picture with another one that I had taken.

love the look with those wheels

That sucks man, best of luck on a quick sale. Are you going to be at the St. Pete cars and coffee this sat? Might be a good place to get some free advertising…slap a for sale sign on it when you go walk around. BTW, I'm the guy with the white C55 with the gunmetal LMs, black roof; we chatted it up last C&C. -Alex

nice ride

Alex,
Did not make it this weekend, might go next month and put a sign on it. I did see that allot cars had for sale signs on them at the last meet.

Mikegpr03

Hi guys. Yes that was my old car.

mkonei

Ive been thinking of moving into something different lately, Im happy to see that the pricing seems to have bottomed out on these finally.

Just love it! right now there are 3 silver C55's in the Tampa area on autotrader. when I was looking there was only one in the state and it was in Miami and it didn't have black interior, ended up buying a Black C55 out of Sarasota.

[QUOTE=advans;5020650]C55 on AUTOTRADER.....



No disrespect BUT, 430 HP and 400 TQ, unless its got FI, I really really doubt its anywhere NEAR that!!

Stock or lightly modded C55s are in the 290-320 range. Anything more than that and its a difference in dynos or operator error. FI C55s are at 400 + with a Kleemann etc.

Nachtsturm

I believe he is talking about fly wheel horsepower.

If his full custom dual exhaust includes headers, he may be over the 400 FWHP mark.

Dre put down 377whp N/A with dual exhaust and tune.

https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c...o-results.html

Using a conservative figure of 10 percent drivetrain loss that would put Dre's car at 419hp at the flywheel.

Hooleyboy put down 387whp with his LT's compared to Dre's mid lengths.

But if the poster meant Wheel hp is over 400, yah, no way.

Newzchspy

Unless I see a reputable dyno, then I dispute the figures. I'm not buying the car, so I really dont care, BUT those figures are way high. Matt, take your car to Chi Performance in MP and you'll see that it puts down about 300-320 WHP MAX , that'll be about it!!

OT, how'd the ML do with the Blizzak's in the snow???

Nachtsturm

Also, depends on the dyno.

What kind of dyno does Chi Performance have?

I have been looking for a place to dyno come spring time. So be interesting to see.

All in all dyno numbers don't really matter to me though, just want to get a number for my sig. If I dyno at 300whp, and run 12.7@110 this season, I'm cool with that.

Already ran 13flat@108-109 with a 30mph headwind.

ML did great, not even a hiccup. Worse part about was driving with the other people on the road who can't handle it.

DRIVEN1

Took a deposit on the car today and will close the deal when the banks open. Car sold relatively quick being 3 other silver C55 were for sale in the area. The guy that bought it a car guy and used to own a CLK55 so I am sure you will see him on here. I will be back one day with another MB,more than likely a C63.

Newzchspy

Good for you. A C63 with P30 or P31 absolutely rocks!!

AMG Sleeper

Good luck man! Don't worry, things will turn around

DRIVEN1

Thanks, It was sad today driving her to her meet her new owner.
