excuse my ignorance, but what makes this CLK55 a collector's special? What makes it worth 10x as much as the other CLK55 on ebay?

You guys are missing the description - it's "CLK 55 AMG Desengio in Magma Red". Very rare. The lister said so. Furthermore " It was said that this car was sold for $180,000.00 and in today's value may be $300,000.00."

i see. i didn't realize the designo package made it so valuable! Would you have any examples of cars sold for a similar value? I'm curious now

I guess the extra money he's asking is for the extra chrome trim he added to the hood and fenders.

We have received the car as a donation to our nonprofit organization. The new purchaser could receive an official receipt as a donation.
Donating an immaculate, extremely rare car? Someone is one hell of a philanthropist.

I want to see the appraisal report from the Vegas dealer and the original bill of sale for $180,000. If they check out I will buy this car for $50,000.

And it didn't sell. Just because something is rare doesn't make it valuable. In theory, on some cars there are so many colors and options, each car could be unique, but they're not worth any more than book value.
