2005 White E55 only 67k miles, only 2 owners
2005 E55, White w/ Black interior. 67k miles. 2nd owner and bought from an elderly man in Jacksonville FL. Car was serviced at Brumos until I bought it 2 years ago. Buckhead Imports has done all of the work to it in the last two years to include the following:
* Service Items
- Valve cover gaskets
- Spark Plugs
- Air injection pump and relay
- Johnson pump
- Aux battery
* Mods
- Kleeman Headers
- Eisenmann race mufflers
- BI Tune
- SCPulley
- Lowering Links
- Carlson Front Lip
- Suvneer rear diffuser (never installed but will give it to the new owner)
- 20" Vossen CV7 w/ Nexen 245/35 in the front and 275/30 in the back. Only 2,000 miles on them at the absolute most
Everything on the car works as it should. No accidents or issues. Only thing I have noticed is the rear airbags shed air after the car sits for a week. As soon as you open the door or turn the key, they inflate quickly up to the correct height.
Original AMG wheels go with the car. No weird smells - car still smells new inside. It sits in my garage (as it has for the last 2 years) and only comes out on an occassional weekend.
This car has been very well maintained and not abused. Never seen a drag strip (although I have embarresed a few Mustang and Camaro owners on the street). It pulls very hard and sounds amazing.
Serious inquiries only. Selling for $26,500 with the Eisenmanns or $25k without (in which case the stock mufflers would be reinstalled).
I can send more pics upon request. Hoping to take it out this weekend for a wash and wax, at which point I will snap some more.

You would have interest if it were priced more aggressively.
For that cost you can get into a few other cars that are newer.
Good luck with the sale. If you change your mind on the pricing PM me.
Thanks!

Thanks for the recomendations guys, but I feel the car is priced pretty fairly. This is not a beater e55 - BI Imports can vouch for it. They always comment about how straight this car is compared to some other vehicles they work on.
If someone is interested and wants to talk numbers - lets talk. Everything is negotiable. As I said, I can remove the aftermarket Eisenmanns and put the stockers back on. That brings my asking price to $25k. Yes, maybe a few thousand more than other 05's, but for someone that wants a white, low mileage, 2 owner, e55 with a few tasteful mods, i think it's a great buy.

Im not trying to bog down your sale thread, trust me ill be watching it. But ill be watching similar cars sit on lots for the next few weeks that are priced thousands under yours to begin with at dealerships with markups, overhead and warranties built into the price.
You can PM me what you would like to see out of it without the exhaust or any other mod and we can go from there.

Nice ride, and I think she is priced fair. White is extremely rare on these cars!
I was toying with selling my white one too (although i am at 2x the mileage lol) and will be watching this thread!
Good luck with the sale!

I agree with staying firm. The best time to sell is when you don't have to, and same for the best time to buy. I waited nearly three months last year to sell a vehicle, plenty of low ball offers, but in the end, the right person came along...

Beautiful car. Problem is when cars as modded no one really factors that much into the price.
Rims - $3000
Exhaust - $3000
Headers $2000
So just those three things add $8K to the price of the car. Honestly if car was bone stock you could easily get $17 or $18K but the car has probably $10-14K in mods.
Anyways good luck with the sale car is really beautiful and the white seems to be a rare color that I don't see too much.

No one has even asked what options the car has!!! LMAO...Yet, guys give their opinion on the price not knowing anything! Sticker price could have ranged from $85k to $95k and possibly more...it's just funny! So, maybe this would help but I am guessing that it does not have pano, dynamic, keyless, I think nav was an option in 05!? Plus many more options that were available. Anyway, not sure that 5 months later and dropping $2k will help your situation but I am a fan of this car...obviously and wish you luck with your sale!
P.S. My car has 96k and every option except distronic and side shades but everything has been serviced in past year ($3500 with buddy doing the work), tires have 3k miles, rims have no rash, interior is perfect, no paint work ever and it is MINT, mods listed below...etc. and my friend keeps begging me to sell him my car for $20k. So, I don't know what's holding yours up but maybe it's options.

60nomad- thanks for the post. It has dynamic but no pano or keyless. Honestly, I haven't really been trying to sell it. If I was, I know I would have a better chance on Craigslist and/or Autotrader. This ad is more of a feeler to see if anyone on the forum is interested. Actually drove it today for the first time in a while and almost forgot how fun it is to drive. Still love the car but just trying to figure out where it is going to go when my 68' w30 442 gets delivered from the restoration shop next week!
