Thank you sir


Thank you

Come on guys, give me an idea of what the market will pay for this car

djrabbi

You need to keep that car...it looks too good lol

spinn

nice...wish I had a dash clock.

Unfortunately, with the amount of miles on it, it might be a tough sale at $15K.

djrabbi

I sold mine for 14k with 86k on it. I think 12k is your more your ball park.

I traded mine in for about 10K with 75K miles. Mods are fine but would not really increase resale value. They make it easier to sell to certain persons who like your mods. Yours is a beauty!

tbone

Thanks for the input guys. Keep it coming!

I just bought my 03 E500 for 13k. Granted it was all stock, but only had 60k miles.
(13k includes tax, reg, complete total)

Why do you have the headlight cleaning button but not the opening on the bumper ?

spinn

I would guess that he added the AMG bumper w/o headlight washers, while his orig bumper had them.

djrabbi

Sell me HREs? please?

PortAxePlayer1

Yea i figured, but he could have found an AMG bumper that had them, anyway, what happens if the button is pressed ?:p

djrabbi

Nothing. He disconnected it from inside the bumper so it won't go up.

tbone

Thanks for that.

I never use the cleaning button and so when I bought the bumper I purposely bought a bumper w/o the cutout for a cleaner look. I didn't disable it. I thought about it, but when I talked to my shop, they said if I accidentally pressed the button, it would just retract after hitting the button.

LOL, thanks for the interest, but I'm not even close to selling the car. I'm not even close to listing the car as a feeler...hence my thread title. I want to gauge the market to see what I can get before I decide what I want to do. Until I decide, car's staying as is

Car is now for sale:

I'm not looking to increase resale value. As stated in my thread, it's priced for those who are looking to mod. Those ppl will see the value. And those not looking to mod will not, as reflected in your statement.
