FS/Feeler: 2001 BRABUS CL 5.8

posting this up for my friend.

The car is a silver/grey int 2001 CL BRABUS 5.8 (579NM torque/427lb-ft and 400PS) complete car 47k miles (engine, suspension, dash, stamped headrest, bodykit, exhaust, rims) minus the brabus/alcon brakes as that was taken off and sold seperately. My friend's asking $50k. You can contact him at (909) 468-1311 ask for Albert. I had a chance to drive it today. Simply an awesome car.

here's couple pics I took with my crap motorazr V8 phone

I sold an identical car with less miles WITH the brakes for 63 in 2003. I think its fallen a bit more than 13k in the last 4 years. It now lives with a fairly interesting fellow in Santa Barbara if he still has it. I was not sure he could afford the running costs but he had to have the Brabus car and he got a hell of a deal. It was his dream car so glad he got it. I hear he drives the local service shop insane with complaints.

Its a great car and I loved driving it but with no warranty, expensive servicing, and a general lack of power its not worth very much. A CL55 from 2003 is far less and a much more interesting car.

Know its not yours and you are just posting it up so yes I am shooting the messenger.

But go through a tunnel with the windows down at WOT and that car sounds AMAZING.

Still love those wheels even after all these years too!

may or may not be the same car...lol...who knows

not mine, so just thought it be a unique car to have. value wise I think it's pretty clear that a CL55 kompressor can be had for less without saying.
