06 C55 AMG, 94 RX7(LS Swapped)
Unhappy Damaged 2006 Mercedes Benz C55 AMG

Let my wife borrow my car a couple days ago and she rear ended someone. I did not have full coverage as I very rarely drove this car. Clean car prior to the crash and I have a clean title on hand. Airbags did not deploy. Car starts and drives, but will need to be towed. I can have the car towed for free within a 100 mile radius. Car was just smogged a few months ago. 114k on the clock.

What appears to be damaged:

Front bumper cover
Hood
Center grill
Radiator
Radiator Support
One of the headlight mounts
Quite possibly the AC condenser

Recent maintenance:

New Battery(week old)
New Air Filters(2k mi ago)
New Wipers
New Shifter Console
New Shifter Boot
New Hood Supports
New Rims and Tires(2k mi ago)
Oil Change(2k mi ago)

Modifications:

AEM Dryflow Air Filters
Eurocharged Tune
Longtube Headers
Custom Header-back Exhaust
Fog Light Delete
Doss FF1 19x8.5 +35 F 19x9.5 +45 Rims (Super light, weighed 8lbs less per rear wheel, 5lbs less per front wheel)
Federal 235/35/19 F 265/30/19 R Tires
AMG Center Caps
Extended Lug Bolts
Coyote 10mm Rear Spacers
H&R 10mm Modified Front Spacers
Custom CNC Machined Wheel Bearing Caps(To fit rims properly)
5.5 AMG Side Stickers
All Speakers replaced with better units(used to have subs in the back as well, wiring still there)
Pioneer AVH-X4800BS Head Unit
Tint

Sounds really mean under wide open throttle and let's out backfires during off/on throttle. I'm really frustrated about the situation and just want the car gone.

Located in SoCal. Price is $5k.

OMG, that was heartbreaking to see. Sorry about your car friend. Have you filed for divorce yet? j/k

New, old Mercedes and REAL AMG's.
Oh man....that SUCKS big time. Looks very clean indeed.


I would first make sure she makes me dinner and takes care of my NEEDS (in no particular order) on a daily basis for the next 12 months AT LEAST.

Looking to purchase.
Painful, like looking at a wounded quarter horse. I hope someone with the skills necessary to mend that beauty is made aware of it.

It was painful for sure, but not worth taking it out on my wife. I can always buy another car, but a great wife doesn't have a price tag. She already prepares all my meals and takes care of all my needs 🙂

Looking at how the car ended, it is obvious that she DOES!


Congrats on the sale!
