FS: 2002 Mercedes Benz C32 AMG

2002 Mercedes Benz C32 AMG with 103k miles. Average/fair condition with clean title and carfax (which I have a copy of for you). Has Arizona plates/tags, needs to be registered in TX. VERY fast, great exhaust sound, supercharged V6 engine all in a 4 door sedan. This car is heavily modified with conservatively estimated 430+ crank hp/430+ crank tq (dynos 350 whp/359 wtq on 91 octane on low-reading dyno dynamic dyno with conversion courtesy of http://www.dynocomp.com/tuning.php which estimates it to have more than 430). In case you are curious, the car stock/from the factory comes with ~349 crank hp/333 tq

Modifications (~$4k):

Eurocharged 185mm Crank Pulley
Full SL55 AMG Intake with K&N Filters
Eurocharged headers + resonator delete
Dyno-Comp (RennTech Dealer) custom dyno tune
Eurocharged Heat Exchanger
Magnecor KV85 wires
NGK IX Iridium (step colder) plugs
NeedsWings Pulley Saver Kit
NeedsWings Fluid Isolation Kit
Trunk lip
AMG hood badge

Factory Options:
Power rear sunshade
Multi-disc CD player
Heated seats
Power sun roof
Xenon Lights
tinted windows all around

Up to date on maintenance with new brakes and oil change.

Cosmetically, rims could use some resurfacing, trunk lip could be redone as carbon fiber print starting to fade a little. a couple of superficial scratches. passenger-side skirt has little crack and needs to be touched up, missing rear tow hook cover (40 bucks), may need new window tint. Interior looks great, but shifter top fading.

Electrically/Mechanically: side marker bulbs disconnected (and bring up error msg), one fog light is out (probably loose wire), engine hood needs new lever arm or spring. The car has had monthly sporadic starting issues over the past year, but the part to be replaced to fix it is either 90 or 500 (plus install unless you are capable of doing it yourself). For information about my issues here is the thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c...120-p0221.html

Summarized though, a couple times per month, it turns on and maintains a high RPM and needs to be restarted several times (or wait about 15 min) for the car to start up normally again. I've had the car looked at multiple times by various mechanics, resulting in new spark plugs, fuel filter, throttle valve actuator, and pedal assembly but none of these have permanently resolved the problem. Because I'm moving and need a car for snow, I decided to stop throwing money at the car and have just dealt with occasional inconvenience. My main mechanic told me that he thinks that the car likely either needs either a new fuel actuator ignition cable (part 113150028) that goes between the TB and main engine harness (apparently a very quick install) and is about a $90 part OR a new main engine harness (part 2035404333) which MB retails for about $720 but can be found online for under $500 (and not sure about how labor intensive that would be).

Again, selling because I'm moving and need a car/suv for snow. No trades, no paypal , no tire kickers, no low ballers, no leisure/joy rides. Not parting out. Serious offers only. Asking right around KBB value $7000 cash OBO.
