2005 C55 AMG
FS:2005 C55 AMG Black/Black/Black 87K Miles in SOCAL

I've owned the car since 2012. This car rocks and I'm sad to say I'm transferring to a 4 year college and can't afford the gas for the distances I'd be driving. I just spent over $4k on new mods this summer (listed below). It has served me well, no major issues and well maintained with a clean title and no collisions. I've been doing the oil changes and brakes up until I recently had full brake job by the shop who did my wheels suspension and tires.(honest and trustworthy) The car is garaged 6 days a week from 10am-6pm at my office's underground garage, otherwise parked in the shade in my driveway.

List of Mods:

Eurocharged ECU Tune
C63 Paddle Shifters
K&N air filters
Escort 8500 Radar/Laser detector (hard wired)
Yakima Roof rack with powder hound(holds 4 snowboards/skis)
Blacked out badges
5.5 AMG side badges
Carbon Fiber trunk lip (aggressive angle, Morello Edition style)
Carbon Fiber wrapped front grill
Carbon fiber AMG door pins
Carbon fiber AMG valve caps
Black hood AMG badge
Limo tinted windows
LED Progector H7 Fog lights (Awesome)
LED bulbs full interior and almost exterior

*($4k spent on)* --Have receipt
Stoptech Cross drilled, perforated, and slotted brake rotors
Stoptech Brake pads
Stoptech SS brake lines
Bilstein PSS9 Adjustable Coilovers
Niche 19" Matte black wheels 19x8.5 front on 235 19x10 rear on 265 Hancook Ventus V12
*Extremely Slight rubbing on rear wheels on full-tank and really hard sharp turns* Otherwise it handles so well on 6th damping setting it's unbelievable.

What it has stock:

OEM Navi and harmon kardon speakers
heated seats
rear sunshade (opens half way only-needs tweaking/repair)
includes OEM C55 AMG Wheels

What it needs/issues:

Almost brand new rim got a 3 inch curb rash when my girlfriend drove it for a day(obviously)
(I polished and painted the area and it looks pretty good)
Rear bumper driver side has a clear coat scrape, not too bad
Motor/tranny mounts ($500 including parts and install)
Tranny service (around $300, i am including new filter and gaskets)
Parking brake has an issue not engaging properly/ intermittent guessing its the cable or brake shoe?
Mercedes emblem from the engince cover fell off and has a small crack in it
Driver side window button keeps coming off but all windows work fine.(replacement switch box $130 off ebay)
Passenger fog light glass has rock chip (2 weeks ago) cost is $60 for OEM housing


Repaired Recently/More needs:

Crankshaft position sensor changed at 60k miles.

Front bumper replaced with OEM bumper, (I cracked it on a what i believe was a tire or something large on the freeway, it tore off center part where the air dam is until passenger side by the wheel is along with the left and right lower fender cover) The bumper looks great and has matching paint including metallic speckles but the dealer didn't have the lower fender covers in stock at the time of repair so I told the shop to pass and I'll fix it later, but I never got the chance. Cost is $120 for parts and it can be done in 30 minutes.

Spark Plugs Changed at 80k miles

Radiator and top hose (top hose was soft and plastic inlet was cracking and had a small leak. didn't want to mickey mouse it so i replaced the whole damn thing)cost me $400 for total OEM replacement. (have receipt)


This is all to the best of my knowledge. I'm being completely honest with all the issues and mods. I truly want someone from this forum to buy it because I know it will be taken care of. I want to see this car with someone who knows and appreciates it. If not, I won't sell it to you.
CAR IS SOLD AS IS
Price is $13,500 FIRM
Stock wheels and roof rack available for an additional $500 and $300 respectively $700 together.
only because it lower miles than most and recent 4k spent
Pm me for more info. More pics coming soon

Bump for a good looking car,hey guys thats a fair price with the low miles and all the mods and service work done, I just sold mine and it had 103,000 miles and got close to that price. These cars are getting harder to find with low miles and a good service record like this one.

Can you post a pic of the bumper and some interior shots, or PM a link?
Also curious about the roof rack. Did it install in the rail, or is it one of those that clamps on the roof edge? Included or not?

Thanks

hey guys please gimme a few days on pics, I'm outa town for thanksgiving. The roof rack is one of the clamps but i used a vinyl tape they provide to prevent scratching.

for the roof rack and stock wheels its only fair i ask for $14,200. You'll need the stock wheels for snow tires.

2010 Subaru Impreza
Been stalking, finally made an account. Debating selling my Impreza soon for either a B5 S4 or a C55. Not a fan of the C32 interior and E55 is a bit on the high end of the budget. This car looks great, is shipping a possibility?

as long as i get a cleared wire transfer before and you pay for shipping i have no problem doing so. P.S. B5 is cool but s4 is a lump of issues..... my friend owned one for 1 year and sold it cuz it was so ****ty. not the only person i heard complaints from

The C55 is the way to go if this is the amount you want to spend, very reliable, lots of HP, looks great, easy to work on, naturally aspirated engine, suspension and brakes are pretty built proof. The interiors are cool looking and hold up extremely well. I agree the S4 at this price is no comparison and a maintenance headache.
Just my thoughts
