Outstanding Issue

Only issue with car is with the amp, powering the stock head unit. The stock amp has went out and I am having it looked at this week. This maybe a non-issue if I can get fixed under the extended warranty, but if it is not covered, I will work something out with buyer, as possible discount to price, to compensate for purchase of working amp.



Synopsis

This car is an absolute machine… subtle and sleek in its day to day driving yet an a monster when you want it to be. In the past year, I have had nearly half of the car replaced, ensuring it is working to its original build specs. This car is built for an enthusiast, someone who will enjoy the build quality of the car. Ideal person looking for this vehicle would be exiting a two door sports car, looking for the extra seats in the back, yet not taking a hit on performance. This is perfect for a weekend cruiser, put the family in and head out to dinner. Heated Seats, sunshade, power everything, quality interior including great gauges, leather and new car smell, this is the point of a Mercedes. You know you have bought not a badge or an image, you have bought something hand built, with passion and the determination to be the best.

** Anyone in the area, that is interested, are welcome to arrange time to review/look over the car and bring a mechanic with you to inspect.

Additionally, for piece of mind, we can also make arrangements on a serious purchaser to have a independant inspection done on the car, I will split the cost with you. Sound Fair?

Original MSRP: 58,750.00
Modifications: 29,887.15
Recent Replacements Cost: 16,557.00 (most covered under warranty)

PRICED FAIR @ 23,500.00

Bump for a very good price for an S7 Kleemann C55. The C55 SC is one of the ultimate sleepers.

and we know it'll outrun an R8 with a "not so experienced" driver!!

Think twice, the fuel costs of that thing will eat you and your three kids out of house and home!! A client has one and his biggest *****, other than tire wear, is the fuel usage. Around town, 10-13, Highway, 14 if you're lucky!! Its a fast fat pig!!

Added this statement:

The car mechanically is very sound and in perfect working order, I recently spent a small fortune to ensure this. Then I get the word from the wife, certain fun activities have resulted in a third child... whole world changes on that account ... so the investment made in March of a full rebuild from Kleemann is now going to be enjoyed by the next purchaser of the car.

Told Cory from Kleemann that I was selling and wanted to get PDF copies of all of the work with paid invoice amounts; here's his response, and your welcome to give him a ring:

Hey Michael-

Sure thing! Here they are.

Anyway, I hope the new buyer enjoys your C55- it's certainly a beast! If the new owner has any questions about what we did, just give him my number, or email and I'm happy to talk to him.

Thanks!

Cory
Additionally, I can work with someone a little on the price. If were a few grand apart, we can meet somewhere in middle if your picking up etc.
