E55 AMG
Test drove local E55

I went to see this E55 and it was in basically brand new condition. The car ran extremly hard I almost bought it right there but I had my heart set on a black one. The price is a steal to for its condition. Seller was a real nice guy. Here is the link if anyone is looking for a clean silver E55. Mention my name (Andrew) and he will give you a good price.

So you are affiiliated with the seller. That's exactly the impression I got from your first post, but I didn't want to derail your thread. Why not say that in the first place.

BTW: You're not the seller, are you?

Let me edit this with correct punctuation..i think you meant:

My friend is advertising his, this car for over 39k, but he will sell it for 38,500 to a forum member.

I think he is talking about two different cars.

I have a black E55 that I bought a month ago however I looked at this car before I got mine but I wanted black. I am just helping my friend sell his car.

I would avoid putting my owners manual on the trunk lid of my car. Potential scratches are not avoided.

2008 GTI
So what is the price of the vehicle?

I found an 04 local to me for $27,500....but the 100,000 miles is a bit scary.

When I mentioned your name, I could have swore that he started smacking his lips, then he started to moan in a low tone.

Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that the car became available again. A local guy came down and put a deposit on the car when it was priced at 38,777, but apparently he didnt get approved for financing. My buddy says that he will sell it to a forum member for a no-haggle price of 35,500 including dealer fee out the door, which is an incredible deal in my opinion. I have seen this well-optioned e55 in person and it looks almost brand new and comes with every maintenance record from day 1!! It was fanatically maintained by a local enthusiast and is an amazing value at that price. Just trying to help my friend out. He said that if he doesnt get 35,500 for the car, hes just going to keep it for himself.
