I am absolutely in love with this car. I reall do not want to sell it at all. The reason for considering selling it is becuase maintenance is much hardrer to do myself than in my past experience with BMWs. I feel i can revisit this care when I can properly care for it the way it needs. The previous owner was somewhat cluesless/ nit forthcoming to some of the issue it had (probably knew) although they are not bad at all and anyone who loves these cars will have a beautiful black e55. I dont want to see any e55 driven to the ground especially at my fault. So if anyone is intersted let know, I will provide some details, but i will also provide further info among anyone ewho is actually interested. The car is located in South Florida
Maintenance I have preformed since ownership about 3 months:
- Change ineter cooler pump to Bosch upgrade
- Car came with adjustable coilovers
- Oil change immediately after purchase (did myself, made sure both srain plugs were drained)
- Radiator flush
Things that need addressing:
- Needs brakes, warning light came on but can still drive fine, there is squeaking as amg have know to do in the past
- Valce cover leaking of course, not horribly but it is
- RMS slow leak we all know about
- CEL ( P0507, P0455,P0505)
- Gas smell coming form outside cabin
- ac compressor is out
minot interior wear but looks grwat for most part. Below I will attach pictures, If anyone is intrested and if not what do you think is a fair price for this, or should i just keep it and get it up to spec, as this is not my daily, although that will probably take me over a year to get it how I want and a lot of money sunk into the car that could be use elsewhere at this point in my life.
Anyone ontrested or woth any advice i very muvh appreciate the responses!
Very shiny on the outside...but is the inside rotten and in need of high dollar work?
Screw the pretty paint photos; show me the maintenance. A cracked bumper won't stop me. Failed suspension bushings or ball joints can kill me.
Pretty paint works for amateurs; maintenance works for professionals who are willing to spend money to purchase a car. Please step up your game. No insult intended; just being blunt with you as I am interested the car.
