Ultimate Poser C55

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/cto/4919360618.html

LOWERED PRICE!! $11.500 OBO!!

Selling my custom Mercedes C55 AMG clone.

Car is originally a 2003 C240 - Great gas milage
Milage: 123.000
Interior is 10/10 (black leather)
Exterior 10/10 (silver/platinum)
Rims 6/10 (black iForged 3-piece).
Clean title, pink slip in hand.

Interested in all kinds of trades up to $25K value, especially muscle cars or classics, but also others.

Adult driven, never raced or abused.

Asking $11.500 obo. (LOWERED PRICE)

Heavily modified with an endless list of upgrades (listed below).

Selling it as I have realized that I am 32 and need to drive a Corvette/Camaro or something before I have kids. I can always get a 4 door. When I do have kids though, this is the kinda car I would want. It looks beautiful, turns heads, gets thumbs up and looks 100% identical to a C55 AMG - just with nicer interior.

The additional upgrades besides the above mentioned include (total value of $17.000):

- OEM AMG bumpers and side skirts
- C55 AMG exhaust (2009)
- AMG F1 Safety Car steering wheel (mbenznl-steve 2008)
- AMG brembo brakes 6 pistons front 4 pistons rear (Genesis Engineering 2009)
- C55 AMG trunk spoiler (2008)
- KW coilovers variant 2 (Genesis Engineering 2008)
- H&R sway bar with rear camber kit (SonicMS 2009)
- Bi xenon headlamps (mbenznl-steve 2008)
- Clear fog lamps (mbenznl-steve 2008)
- Clear LED side mirror signal lights (mbenznl-steve 2008)


- BMC Air filters (2011)
- Roof professionally wrapped in gloss black vinyl for panoramic look (2014)
- Clear LED light bulbs in all cabin, trunk, doors and tail lights (2013)
- Trunk floor pan/spare tire well professionally changed to OEM C55 floor pan to accomodate the authentic C55 stainless steel dual exhaust
- Oil change every 3000-3500 miles using only Mobil 1 synthetic oil along with OEM oil filters
- Rebuilt front coilover from the manufacturer: KW Suspension in Southern California (2014)
- Fresh rear tires along with alignment (2014)
- Timing belt, pulley belt, new gaskets (2014)
- Hid conversion lights for the fog lights 6000k white lights (2014)

A teal Vespa with tassles and glitter. You know you're jealous.
Well... I could have had me a C55 just by changing the exhaust and adding a trunk spoiler? I would have totally done that and claimed more on insurance when my C32 was wrecked. . Excuse me while I go punch baby seals.

Headlights, fenders, hood, bumper, and grill are wrong, not a clone at all.

Yeah, the whole front end on a C55 is different than a regular W203
