Cool 2003 CL55 - Tons of custom work - San Diego - $25k

Unfortunately, a family illness has forced the sale of my 2003 AMG CL55. I do not presently have time to take pics, but will this weekend if people are interested. I was thinking about taking off the mods and selling them separately, but if a forum member wants it, I'll let it go as is.

  • 2003 AMG CL55
  • Black exterior/ Custom Interior (black w/red accents)
  • Just under 80k miles
  • Extended warranty through United Autocare (bought at Penske Mercedes of San Diego and never have had a problem with them) until 93,441 miles or August 2012
  • 20" Chrome Lorinser RS6s 255/35/20 front (20x9) 100% tread (just replaced) & 295/25/20 in back, (20x10) 90% tread)
  • ASP 172mm pulley - made custom just for me (Have stock pulley or can put on if desired)
  • VRP Shorty Headers
  • 82mm TB (Have stock TB or can put on if desired)
  • OE Tune (Jeremy box tune, or will get it flashed to stock if desired)
  • 3" exhaust from primary cat back (resonator and secondary muffler delete but still have rear cats if you wish to put them on)
  • Magnaflow mufflers
  • Magnaflow X-pipe
  • Lowered 1.5" all the way around
  • Garrett Heat Exchanger from gt500 integrated into lower valence
  • PTE Thermostat
  • CM30 intercooler pump
  • -10 degree fan mod
  • (THIS THING RUNS A LOT COOLER COMPARED TO STOCK!!!!!!!)
  • Phenolic Spacers
  • AFE Pro-Dry Filters
  • (Stereo and Audio done by La Jolla Audio and Video - cost $8k alone and have receipts)
  • Custom 7" touchscreen Alpine W505 installed in dash
  • Upgraded Blackbird in-dash navigation
  • 2 12" JL Audio W3v3 subs in trunk
  • JL Audio box
  • Upgraded Focal interior tweeters
  • Upgraded Alpine speakers in rear compartment
  • 2 Alpine amps hidden in trunk (1 is 400w for front speakers, 1 is 600w for subs)
  • Rear backup camera automatically shows when car is in reverse
  • Bluetooth with sound coming through interior speakers
  • Valentine 1 radar detector hard wired
  • HID 8k fogs and regular lights
  • Red Interior Ambient lighting
  • Ipod connection and cradle concealed in the armrest and accessible from the Alpine Head Unit
  • Debadged for a "sleeper" European look
... I think that is about it, but I am sure I am forgetting something.....
I'm fairly **** about my cars, so I take pretty good care of them.....

The only issue I have is the 82mm sometimes throws the CEL (p0505 code, idle higher than expected). I know this is from the TB and will put stock on if desired.

Recently just bought tires, spark plugs, did tranny flush, oil change, front brakes.

Never tracked and never dynoed, so don't know the power it is making or the quarter mile it runs in, but it is damn strong and probably 1 of the fastest CL55s around.

Pretty firm on the price and believe it is a fair price but will consider reasonable offers close to the asking price.

Located in San Diego. PM me, post here or call: 858-776-0112.

Thanks

Thanks, I think it is a good price considering everything that I've done and looking for a relatively quick sale. Not looking to make any money off the deal, just help my dad out with his failing health. Just wanted to see if anyone was interested in it with the mods before I start pulling them off and taking it back to stock.
