FS: 2006 C55 - 26K miles - Genuine Mercedes Extended Warranty until May 2013
So the time has come to part with the C55. Wife and I have a relatively new baby (11 months old) and this is our only car. With the growing family, it's getting a bit confined to use in all situations. So as much as this pains me, the AMG has to go.
Car has been extremely well taken care of, and very low mileage. I walk to work, so car is used only on weekends and for trips--mostly highway miles.
General Info:
Car is black on black with Black Birdseye Maple Trim
Navigation
Bi-xenons
Only lacking IPod integration, Satellite Radio and Phone Integration (all can be relatively easily added)
I am the second owner. I bought the car from another forum member "AMGnut" in January 2008 with 5,700 miles
Mercedes Genuine ELW - NO DEDUCTIBLE - good for either 75K miles or 3 years (May 2013)
Car is always garaged
Never Smoked in
Just had service B performed at MB of Cherry Hill (records included)
Rear tires should be changed soon (about 4/32 of tread) but the fronts are OK
Modifications:
Car is lightly modified with
Items to note:
Wheels do have some curb rash, not terrible (will post detailed pics in next day or so)
Hood does have a few paint chips, but not noticable unless you're really looking for them
Car really is in wonderful shape
I did have one minor fender-bender (rear ended at very slow speed), only required some bumper paint touch up/scratch removal
No other stories with the car
Mileage, Location and Price:
Mileage: Slightly under 26,200 right now (Nov 1) will increase slightly as I still drive it
Location: Philadelphia, PA
Price: $25,000 OBO
Please PM me with any questions. Will also probably put up on Autotrader and EBay, so I'll include EBay link when I get it set up.
Thanks!

Dyno chart below. With the C/F Airbox and K&N Filters, she popped out a 318 HP and 330 Torque at the wheels on a Dynojet. The lower line is with the stock airbox.
Also, here's the thread I posted after the runs if anyone is interested.

As for "moving up", I'm not sure I would call it that.
We're looking at a Honda Pilot. I do think it's funny that the Pilot is almost as much as what I paid for the C55 back in 2008!
