F/S: 1997 Carlsson E420
1 of a kind -- complete head turner -- no one believes it's a 1997
I absolutely love this car, but need to sell it because it is just not practical for New York City driving. It has been professionally lowered to perfection, but the streets of NYC are not the place for lowered vehicles - especially high dollar cars that are lowered. I need to move into something better suited for year round driving here and I never even considered taking this car out in bad weather.
I've had the car 1-1/2 year. I purchased it from the original owner who lived in California and I've put less than 12,000 miles on it.
Car is under extended warranty until March 2004 or 100,000 miles. It is transferable and probably can get an additional extension on to its' term. I have all books and 2 sets of keys.
Equipment:
1997 Mercedes E420
54,000 miles
Silver with Black Leather interior
Mercedes CD changer
Full Carlsson Aero Body Kit
Full Carlsson Exhaust System
Carlsson 2/6 19 inch Wheels
2 Brand New Dunlop Sport 9000 Tires in Front
Pirelli Tires on Rear have 65% tread left
Bilstein Shocks
H & R Springs - lowers the car approx.. 1.5+ inches
2000 E430 tail lights
Mercedes Car Phone
Every Mercedes Benz option except Navigation and Rear Shade
Close to $15,000 in extras on this car!
30 Additional Pictures: http://www.dreamvisual.com/e420/pic_index.html
Vehicle Condition:
- Mechanically Perfect, no issues at all!
- Oil changed with Mobil 1 - last oil and filter change at 50,000.
- Paint is in near perfect shape, has typical little chips up front from road debris
- Washed almost every week.
- Tires in very good condition (fronts are brand new)
- Rims are near perfect. One front rims has 2 curb marks.
I can get another rim as a spare if purchaser is interested at an additional charge.
These rims are very hard to find as they are not imported to the states any more,
so the spare might be an option to consider.
- Front Carlsson air dam has slight marks from rocks, a couple rough areas on the fiberglass UNDERSIDE and a little 2 inch slight crack in the paint, NOT the fiberglass
- Front Carlsson air dam has never had the license plate holder drilled through. I didn't want to put holes in it.
- There are also typical little marks that are only noticeable when up close while you're washing the car
- NO paint swirl marks
- 1/4 inch mark in windshield, nothing major, passed inspection hear with no problems
- Interior leather is Mint. No marks what-so-ever in interior.
- Door handles were painted Silver to match car paint. Since the door handles were originally black plastic
this paint has begun to chip in small places. It can easily be removed back to the original black
or can be painted Silver again for roughly $25 per handle
- All blemishes are represented in the pictures, nothing hidden, by far nothing major.
------
NEW since pictures were taken is a crack in the front spoiler that runs from the fog light down to the bottom of the spoiler. It is cracked clean thru with no missing fiberglass pieces.
------
Will sell for $26,500 obo with the front spoiler fixed or $24,950 as is!
Send PM's and emails with your questions. Have 2 vehicles on the way and need to move this car before March.
Thanks
