'7 disk changer'? Pretty sure mine is a 6, plus one in the dash... just nit picking
However:
'breaking' and 'floating rotter'?

I had a squirrel fall in my pool 2 years ago that turned into a 'two piece floating rotter'

If I can ever find a '05 CLK55, white w/black interior, in great shape and a decent price I'd snap it up in a heatbeat and transfer all my goodies from you 500 over to it. I know there was one posted on this forum for sale about a year ago but I missed out on it.

Anyways, red looks good on it but yeah, where are the engine pics???

I thought that white one was a decent price, I made a pretty decent offer for it as well. Deal never panned out. Glad it didn't work out because I got mine already complete with Kleemann modifications similar mileage for less money! That white CLK55 took months to sell.

Ya, I searched for months for a 55 here in Dubai but couldn't find any that weren't beat on harsh, I found that posting just after I bought my 500. The 55 and 500 werent offered here, making them both uber rare (both special orders only, not stocked) just 200K's, 350's and Black's for the most part. All my suspension, brakes and power (Kleemann SC, cams, headers) can all transfer over to a 55 one day, that has been the plan from day one. Gotta be white/black though!

haha I offered to buy it too a couple years ago before I bought mine. Ive done my research for a year like you before I bought mine and was searching for a while. In my years of searching thats the only white one Ive ever seen! The only thing I didnt like was the woodgrain interior. I offered kellybluebook. Im sure he took a bigger loss now selling it. I wanted white but for the amount of money I saved from not buying that one I could fully kleemannize my car
