Wow! I have never seen one in white, looks kinda smaller, real neat.
Who makes the boot spoiler? I have the same interior Java in mine and it's one of the best. I used to change cars anything from 3 months, but I have really settled with the 65, without doubt the best car I ever had.
Sometimes we change for the sake of it, some lucky guy will get yours!!!

Yes, still 'enjoying' it
Too many low ballers, so I kinda retracted her from the market for a now. The weather has been great here in So. Cal so my wife and I are trying to enjoy this 'beauty and the beast' more often...

The low ballers are what the market has become. When that happens, it's called market price. It sucks that it is so low but it is what it is.

I have been watching prices waiting to bump up the 65 and I have noticed that in the last few months the rate at which prices are dropping has slowed way down. Maybe not a bad idea to hold out for a little bit, so long as you still enjoy the car.

Your worst nightmare...
I am glad you decided to keep the car Greg..she is a beauty. Same goes for me, I decided to keep her and do some work on her. Nothing like having the Infamous 65 engine. Soon they will be extinct, lol!

a 2005 CL65 with 23k sold at auction $44k black on black
it was a "average" condition car with keyless and parktronic.....no issues and clean carfax....nice ride....cheap price....I watched it roll through...the MMR or actual average price was $47k now it dropped....so someone paid under less then what the car was really worth....... funny thing is that there were no fighters for the car..... in contrast I saw a 2006 S65 roll through with 9k miles... this car went for $56,500 after fees....and there were 2 dealers putting their dicks in that one.... fighting to the end........I prefer the CL65 all day long.... again these cars don't get the respect they deserve.....

, depreciation sure is a b*itch. but those lucky few that are buying the 65's are getting one hell of a car for a dirt cheap price tag

yeah i agree......
It is the classic bit where the buyer has no clue what else to get.... why buy a loaded C class or Infiniti G37 when you can have a CLSS55 or CL55 or CL65 instead? a $100K PLUS car for a steal .....or a regular old car for face value? lol
Generally it is the common car buying public who brings down the cost of these supercars.... if nobody buys them the car has to depreciate......the problem is they just dont know any better....not many people know about these cars and the prestige as well as the performance ability...most people assume the cars are out of their league.....
But when you tell a guy who just dropped $70k on a C63 or $70k for an M3 that your CL65 has 612 hp and can run circles around his car with looks to match...oh and you paid $25k less...... the look on their face is priceless....
just the fact that they built less then 700 CL65'S in a 2 year spread is enough to make you cherish them more and more

US....about another 50 or so went out to the rest of the world
yes they are rare.... well the CL55 is as rare with about only 300-400 made annually.....this is why you only see about 30 or less CL65'S for sale in the country at any given time.....and most are the same cars for sale for months....very little rotation...
If you think about it... if the Enzo ran for more then 1 year the CL65 would be rarer by production number and even the Lambo Murc is produced more then a CL65.......

It's cold, I slide in turn the key, the engine barks in that way that's soooo
special.
In to drive and I'm cruising waiting for the temp to come to normal.
Cosseted in the fabulous seats radio playing seats warming my bum and back. Normal temp and it's time to get rid of some traffic, squeeze the pedal,
a rush of power pushes back in the seat. Cruising now at 90-100 passing
the dross, it doesn't get better than THIS!!
CL 65 supreme car, don't sell it,make any excuse to keep it.
