LOL....a little optimistic are we? Since you can't really count mods into the value, $30k for a 14 year old car is MUCH too high.

True...

E55 market is very soft..

Guy doing my widebody conversion just picked up an 05 or 06 with 38K miles Merc CPO for $30K....with 1.99% 66 month Merc financing...

Lot of deals out there for newer AMG, that's why I snapped up a Black Series !

About 20k overpriced. Way too many other Mercs to be had for 30k, like previously mentioned, I would take the W211 E55 at 30k

WOW, you picked up a BS? Congrats! Pictures?

I knew you were ballin' out of control!

But I agree with you! When I was in the market, I found some as low as 16K coming out of Manheim. Ridiculous!

The BS has been sitting in Felix Sabates Merc dealership in Charlotte NC waiting for the weather to clear..
The BS was owned by Sabates racing team partner, Chip Ganassi ( Target Racing..Indy, Nascar.. )

I'll post pix as soon as it arrives...

You and Zorro will like it Black with black interior...
I would have preferred Red or white ..but couldn't resist the deal..

If it was period correct or had a bit of provenance then it would have more value...

At Barrett Jackson in Phoenix, Aaron Rubin sold his C124 Hammer for $32K+ and his S124 Hammer for $42K+
The wagon was purchased by Jono in Atlanta...

The turbo C36 isn't anything correct or special....

Well the C36 is special, especially with the turbo and motor build, but not 30k special, 10k maybe 15k tops.

Amazed Aaron got that much for those cars. Didn't you bid something like that on his sedan?
