I bought this car 2 years ago for my wife as I wanted a safe and reliable car for her that would still be fun for me to drive on occasion. But I totally fell in love with the C55 and ended up letting my wife finish the lease on my BMW 340i (it got better gas mileage) while I took over driving the C55.
This car is super fast (even by today's standards) yet it has been really damn reliable and it's very comfortable and practical. Truthfully, I didn't really miss my 2018 340i at all.
Despite the fact that the C55 has become one of my favorite all time cars, I do still miss driving a R230 and I'd be open to discussing a trade (my C55 + cash) for the right SL55.
I'm only interested in an SL55 trade. No SL500's, CLS55's, etc. It's gotta be an SL55 or bust. I want the supercharged V8 for the power and sound plus the sexy R230 lines. I also miss keyless go!
I split my time between Phoenix AZ and San Diego CA.
If you have an SL55 and want something more practical that is still a ton of fun to drive, let's chat.

Sorry, not really looking to sell unless I get a crazy offer.
I'm going to keep the car unless I can trade it (plus cash) for a SL55 AMG.

I was thinking the same thing... who would trade an SL55 for a C55? Even if someone needed the added seats, they would probably swing for an E55. But GLWS!

Exactly! I dont think no one would down grade even with cash on top. He is better off selling the car and buying a sl or cls55 straight out. No offence to the seller!

I'll probably buy an SL55 first and then part ways with this car.
Or maybe I just throw a blower on and keep it.
