WTB: '05-'06 E55...

Hi All,

As the title says, looking for either an '05 or '06 E55.... I've already read enough "cautionary tales" around here to know that I want a warranty (either CPO or otherwise).

Willing to pay into the $30s, I'm trying to be realistic on price considering I want a car that looks and drives like new.

Prefer Black/Black combo.... other nice options would be iPod integration, BlueTooth, or Keyless Go. None are requirements. Low mileage is definitely a plus...

I'm in New England, but the car doesn't need to be. It wouldn't be the first time I traveled for the right vehicle.


Appreciate any hints or links. I'm already scanning the MBUSA site, AutoTrader, eBay, etc.


Thanks!

-G

I saw two very nice ones for sale at the auction today, both mint with no paintwork. 2006 with 27K sold at $32.5K plus fees, and 2005 with 32K sold at $29.5K plus fees. I can get you one if you'd like.

Faast,

The jason427 car was exactly the type of condition I was looking for, but the color wasn't what I wanted.

BruceM,

Are you talking about the Manheim Auction? I was chasing a lead on a black/black e55 this morning that ended up sold there before I could get much info on it. Maybe PM me and we can talk about your leads?


Thanks guys...I appreciate the help!

I took my car out of storage today.If you want to check it out let me know.There is another local that wants to see it so I might as well show both of you at the same time.

It appears that my search has resulted in victory!!

Just put a deposit down on a very well-optioned 2006 (Black/Black).....


CARFAX looks good, but I'm interested to get a real VMI on it. Does anyone here have access to a friendly dealership that would be willing to run one for me??


Thanks again for all the help.
