FS: 2003 E55 113k Miles $6k

I'm looking to get rid of my 03 E55. Located in Alexandria, VA. Has a little under 113k miles on it. It does run and drive, but it does have problems that need to be addressed which I'll list further down. Car is black with black interior. Has a set of 19" Verde Axis wheels on it. Carbon fiber front lip. Has parktronic, distronic and keyless go.

It does run and drive, but here are known problems that need to be addressed:
Brake warning on dash, needs SBC pump replaced
Needs rotors and pads
Valve cover gaskets leaking
Rear air drops after sitting for about a week
Bushings (can't remember which the shop said) need replacing
Distronic sometimes cuts out during heavy rain, possibly due to not having the distronic grill (was aftermarket when I bought vehicle)

Cosmetically it's in good condition with the exception of being keyed down the drivers side (starts on front door and goes to rear quarter). Has normal rock chips and small scratches from being 14 years old.

Looking to get $6000 for it. I was going to keep it and part it out eventually, but condo association is mad that I'm using up 5 parking spaces so have to let it go. Would be good for somebody that needs a lot of parts or has the time/knowledge to fix it.

That's a great price of those are the only issues. Most E55s have those issues eventually, all are fixable.

Yeah, wouldn't be so bad if I kept up with maintenance and got things fixed as they happened. Estimates from the couple shops in the area for all repairs needed makes it not worth putting that much into a vehicle I never drive anymore.
