Could someone do us all a favor and check this car out? It's very vague as to what's they are really offering.

Haha, now down to $17,991!!! This is a steal for a project car. Also, some minor fine print added to the listing (in BOLD, too!)...

"The car listed is being sold 'AS-IS'. This car does NOT pass Virginia State Inspection, and may or may NOT pass Virginia State Emissions. The car is being sold in the condition that it sits, and no repairs will be made to the car by the dealer. All repairs and State Inspections will be the responsibility of the new owner, regardless of any oral statements made. Test drives are not allowed. You may start the car, and put it in drive and reverse only. We will do our best to describe the car in the condition it is currently in, but there may be issues/problems/damages with the car that are not listed. It is up to you to determine the condition and functionality of the car. You can NOT finance this car.
KNOWN Inspection Problems:
*3 Tires – below VA insp, other is OK

*Lower Control Arm Bushings – cracked and have play – Fails VA insp

*Valve Cover Gaskets – both banks leaking
*Belt Tensions – both upper and lower, making noise – Drive Belt and SC belt

*Drive Belts – worn and ribbed

Probably because it failed Virginia State Safety Inspection, which is probably why they lowered the price to $17,991. For most people, it won't be worth the trouble, but if you are able to tackle it yourself, then who knows.

Fairfax BMW updated the pictures after the clean up. I noticed no pictures of the drivers side of the car. I called and asked if it had any paint work before, and the salesman stated the car had some previous paint work on the driver side rear quarter panel but it looked ok, but I might want to have it resprayed if I wanted it to be perfect. They updated with a pic of the panel, and he called me back and said it would only cost about $200 to fix if I knew a guy. Car looks like it has been painted down the side with a black rattle can. The emblems are also off the hatch. I asked what the paint depth gauge shows, any rust underneath, a copy of what their in-house inspection showed the car needed, and if it had any records, owners manual, or window sticker. Still have not got any answers to those questions after two days of calling. I know I'm from Tennessee and most dealers here don't charge BS fees here, but this one takes the cake, $100 title fee for them to sign the back of it, and hand it to me, its a out of state cash transaction with no mailing of the title necessary. $399 for a processing fee, for a bill of sale, as is statement, and a out of state buyer tax exempt form, $125 for a online systems filing fee, to pay for their internet access so they can browse the web when not selling cars, and $31 for their business license. I know they need to make money, but they do not haggle over pricing, and the salesman even stated that $17991 was out the door, evidently not.

just an FYI for anyone looking at the black on black e55 wagon on ebay with 101k miles and ugly wheels for 23995 buy it now.
HE JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR AT THE PHOENIX AUCTION FOR 13,600. AFTER FEES AND CLEAN UP, MAYBE OWNS IT FOR $14K. I KNOW DEALERS NEED TO MAKE A PROFIT, BUT $10K??

I am a former car dealer with access to auction results just to clarify my info

Thanks for the heads up, looks like a fairly nice car (minus the "upgraded AMG wheels).
Overall it looks like the car is in good condition and was well cared for by someone.

Just my opinion but it shouldn't matter what the person paid for the vehicle and what he is making on it but what should matter is your getting and feel your getting a good deal on the car for what it is.

Black E55 wagon in AZ

New to forum but been snooping around for a few months. Managed to trace the shop that serviced this car. They have actuall service work done up untill approx 50k miles, no other service upuntill Last visit was in October last year for sagging rear, slow leaking. They didnt get any repairs done as didnt want to pay for big repair. Looking at the car fax auto check it would appear that the car probably got sold before any repairs. I spoke with the guy thats selling the car and asked if it had any sagging and he said no but it droopes a little after sitting for a week. Said he knows MB E55s very well and this is normal for these cars if not driven for a while..I dont know MB cars that well but im guessing that should not happen. When I started to question why this is normal i got the run around and some BS...disclaimer Note: I am looking for a E55 wagon myself but would not like someone to get hoosed on expensive repairs espesialy if being BSed by the dealer. Just makes me wonder what else could be wrong if anything...

Thanks for the info, If it was a major leak or air suspension issue it would trigger an airmatic warning that would be reoccurring at every startup. Worse case scenario, maybe it needs new rear air bags which are $800 from Arnott. Otherwise it could just be normal or one of the air lines could have a small leak which is an easy fix.

E55 Wagon-Audi-Land Rover
E55 wagon on ebay

Ended up purchasing a one owner E55 yesterday with 62K with full service history. Not a wagon but nice car and condition..forgot what it was like to drive a car with this kind off power

I was reading up on the Arnott air bag replacments. Seems like an easier fix than the oem with air resorvoir.

I cant help feel suspicious of the guy selling the wagon on ebay. Try e-mailing him and ask a question/spesifics and he'll avoid e-mailing you anything in writing and say to call if you have any questions. Call him and ask spesifics and he wont answer spesific general questions other than hey, the cars in great condition with no issues what more can I say. Which is what you want to here, but at the same time he dosent want to talk about the car details in any shape or form.. I was on the phone for approx 2 to 3 mins with the guy. I understand if was asking for all sorts of pics and eating up his day and time. Had a friend call to inquire about it and he got and felt the same way...Just doesnt feel right. Hope all tread carfully who are bidding on it..Cant help but feel they guys hinding something...just my gut/red flags
