More miles, but nonetheless the point that he made still stands. KBB has the value around 11-12k.

The car market is good, but its not that good.

https://www.smartmotorguide.com/L50176098 Here's one with half the miles for the same price
https://www.smartmotorguide.com/L50021472 heres one with less miles for less

https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ckType=listing
this one is immaculate... and less

https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-b...w203/c-55-amg/
Here's a list of all C55's that have been auctioned, most go for less. The ones that go for more have significantly less mileage

https://auto-hut.com/listing/2005-me...mpaign=premium
Heres one thats kleemann supercharged, tuned, with headers, with 1/3 of the miles, for essentially the same price.

I honestly hope that you sell the car to prove me wrong, but I'm just trying to bring reason

smartmotorguide.com, auto hut.com and classic.com? What the heck are these sites. You obviously just started clicking on stuff in your google search engine. The only legit site you put on there is autotrader. That car had 7 owners. It’s at some trash used car dealership that probably bought it at auction. It has more miles.it had a less desirable interior color. You say it’s immaculate? Did you even look at the photographs? The interior is destroyed. Thanks for your comments.. clearly..you’re irrelevant.
Here’s a pic of your “immaculate” car

C55 AMG
Interested

C55s have caught my eyes while searching for a newer car being the most reliable amg made and a complete sleeper, especially in my area up in Portland OR. Im making two trips down to California this winter and would love to purchase one. Id plan on financing it but I was curious if you'd be able to go lower in price for a realistic approval for a loan. Test drove one the other day over here going for 9k but it's got 147k miles. Yikes I know. If you were interested in my request reply and I'll get back to you. I'll offer 15k and we can work from there if possible

Looking for E55
I think the biggest red flag here is that you're trying to get near as makes no difference 20 grand for a car and you won't spend $20 on an updated carfax. There are no pictures of receipts, the underbody, the engine bay, or the interior. Those things are all pretty important. If you're serious about selling this car why not put in a little more effort? It wouldn't take you more than an hour.

agreed. I do need to take some more pictures. Just haven’t gotten around to it as I work a lot and I’m not that motivated to sell it. It’s paid off and it’s a great car that I love. I honestly never thought I would sell it, but an expanding family means I need something bigger in the near future.

The car sits in the garage and gets driven maybe once a week. I have a 911S that’s my DD.

I do have a couple carfaxs left on my account and that is an option pending someone shows up and wants to buy it. I’m still looking for another car to buy so I’m hanging onto the carfax reports for now. Receipts? I have receipts for the motor mounts, transmission mount and the CPS.

The carfax won’t show anything new since I bought it other than the new owner, hence the reason why I haven’t burned a report yet. I did the CPS, cabin filter and all oil changes and filters. My friend who is a mechanic did the mounts.

$9k could be a fair price, pending it has been WELL taken care of and documented. 147k miles? I wouldn’t worry about that too much. AMG built these cars to go 300k. Not sure when you planning on coming down this way but give me a heads up. If it’s still for sale maybe we could work something out.

My question is why would you spend 18.5 for this when you could get this

my point is you can ask anything you want for a car but what you get is what it is worth. If the market say they will give you 10k it is worth 10k.

just because other models are within the same price range. Doesn’t make the car any less valuable. Also, The last car you posted has a salvage title, also again, at auction these car HAVE brought these prices. I’ve only seen 2 C55’s for the 10k price you say they bring within 2021, and they’ve both had 160k+ miles.

I’m also curious to see this C55 in Austin you bring up because I just did a search and couldn’t find it.

E55 is a sick car.. however.. there are people out there who want a more reliable car and don’t want the anxiety of thinking about air suspension, SBC or supercharger problems.

just fyi i have owned a clk430, c32, c55, 2x w209 clk55s among many other Mercedes and currently have an e55 and glk350. I have been playing this game for a long time. I wish you the best of luck but I don't think it will sell at this price. I am currently in the market for an 05 clk55 hard top but there is no way I would pay over 10k for one.
