2003 CLK500
I sent the seller a message regaring the value, here is his reply:
Your NADA reference is for a stock CLK500
Buyer for this car has to take into account the added value for over $60,000 of upgrades to the stock vehicle and the Celebrity owned status- SHAQ.
Lorinser treatments cost $20,000
Asanti Wheels cost over $12,000 - one off
NBA STAR OWNERSHIP +$ ???
Customized Interior - $15,000
JBL sound System & DVD PLAYER = +$12,000
Low mileage - 6800 miles
Custom body mods (like the fender flares) + $20000
If you owned a CLK in this condition, and then did the upgrades and customization you would spend north of $50,000 to build a similar car.
If the above upgrades have no value to you, then you are not the Buyer for this car.

Price: $72,400
= Shaq ownership: $5,050?![rolf](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
Still ugly as sin: PRICELESS
If a car's value increases in value because Shaq owned it, there are at least a hundred cars per year that are upsetting the auto value market!
