FS: AZ 2006 C55 AMG Salvage title

Hi MB. My kids can't fit in this tiny C Class. As the title states, it has a salvage title, I still think this is a deal. I'm firm on the price, any questions just ask. Located in PHX

2006 C55
107K
AVIN head unit, navi and Bluetooth
New tires
New motor mounts
New spark plugs

Battery was replaced about 1.5 years ago. AFAIK, this car needs nothing, I was going to try to make it work, but I can't fit in this thing with two babies.

5K pretty firm on price, but I'll talk to MB members, you guys aren't like the people on CL!

I'd hold on to it if you can. Kids grow up soooo fast! My older one is about to outgrow the 3rd row seat soon (sniff). GLWS!

I tend to agree with this statement.


On the other hand, providing the quality of the repairs, this could be a heck of a deal for someone looking for a cool Mercedes-Benz to daily drive.

I forgot when the car was in the accident, but it was a while ago. It had the salvage title when I purchased it 2 years ago.

No photos. I don't know what was painted, if I had to guess I would say front bumper, hood, passenger fender and a blend into the door.

The hood needs a respray.

The car is black.

If you want to PM your number to me I can take photos of the seats, but you can see the driver cushion in one of the photos, the seats are in good shape.

ITS CALLED ARIZONA! lol
Black car left out in az always has an ongoing dust bath, over time this takes a toll. After 4O years here I learned don't bother with black unless its garaged.

I have my thoughts on that. There is a C55 in Tucson that has been up for sale for the last 4 years, at least. I looked at it before I bought this one. That car has been in the sun just baking in the AZ heat, granted Tucson is not as hot as PHX, but it is hot enough. The paint is in decent shape. Not messed up like my hood. I do not know how the repairs went after the accident, my guess is something was skipped with the hood where it looked good initially, but did not take to the sun well. None of the other panels look like this and I know they painted the fender, the bumper, and the passenger door.


Go figure. I can't believe I cant sell this car for this price! I already purchased a replacement, I might make it a garage queen. Records. New tires. 2 keys. car cover. Valve cover done. CPS. Spark plugs. bushings. mounts. All the work that people are afraid to do has been done! Unbelievable.
