Ok, I'm really confused right now
This guy is asking me if I'm still selling my 18 inch OEM CL500 wheels, yet the car has almost the same wheels in the pictures! And call me crazy, but those look like pics of a 55, not a 500. And if it is a 500, whoever did it, did a great job installing a 55 rear bumper and dual exhaust!

It's most likely not a CL55.
I am unrelated to the seller and I am not trying to pick sides. That being said, based on my observations, it's may very well be a CL500 because:
1. The non-LED lights on the outer mirror housings on Pre-2003 models
2. The brake does not appear to have huge AMG calipers
3. No obvious Kompressor badge
4. The front AMG bumper is of pre-03' vintage
The European plate really doesn't say anything, as my BMW has a Munich plate. It's just a novelty.
The wheels on that CL500 are 19 inchers. Not the 18 inch version.
Why not just pay the guy a visit or call him on his cell phone?
It's always best not to draw conclusions based on assumptions.

you're like the only sane person here, but i've noticed that most of these people are just bored and broke, there're not looking to buy anything they're just looking for something to talk about

not one person that looked at this car has money to buy it, just dreamers who wish they were able to afford

A Mercedes obviously!
I'm sure there are plenty of people who can afford it, you're just going about selling it in completely the wrong way; not answering questions, not putting a price on it, very limited info in the initial post etc. etc.
If I were on the lookout for an '01 CL500 then that'd put me right off buying. I'm on the lookout for other vehicles at the moment and lack of info is a real turnoff for me. That's before we get to your sucky attitude.

That's enough. You cannot come here and insult members who ask very relevant questions. This sale is an abject failure. You are a failure, and are welcome to try to sell your wares via some other mechanism.
