2002 Mercedes S55 AMG!

I have a 2002 Brilliant Silver with Charcoal interior S55 AMG with 53k miles. The car is in MINT / AS NEW condition and is FULLY loaded! Check out the complete list of options and detailed pictures on my website.. http://jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu/~daw/AMG.html
(The pics were from the dealer I just bought the car from) I'm located in Baltimore, MD 21236 and have just lowered my asking price to $49,900 or best offer. This car cost over $120k new! It has just been MD State inspected and has been serviced at the dealer since it was bought. Have all papers, manuals and keys! Let me know if you may be interested or have other questions!

Thanks for your time and consideration.. again the price IS negotiable!

Nice looking car but why are you selling a car you "just" bought for less than wholesale? Has it been wrecked or is there some other problem with it? Is it an '01 instead of an '02?

There no AMG badges on the seats or anything. I thought the 02s had that..

They DO. Plus they also have the //AMG on the dash as well (see the odometer pics - the AMG emblem is not there). The seats are wrong as well. Pulse was not an option on the "MultiContour" Seats of that year. This looks like someone trying to falsely pawn off an S500 as an //AMG. Maybe Dawson needs to get back on here with the car's VIN #. Something VERY fishy here...

I guess you'll tell me now that that's not right either...

Having said that, it makes this particular car less desireable to many...

Hello,
I just had two people back out on buying my car and thought I'd post again here to see if anyone else would be interested. I have a 2002 Brilliant Silver with Charcoal interior S55 AMG with 53k miles. The car is in MINT / AS NEW condition and is FULLY loaded! Check out the complete list of options and detailed pictures on my website.. http://jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu/~daw/AMG.html or Item number: 4590676350 on eBay. This auction starts at $43k and has NO reserve!
(The pics were from the dealer I just bought the car from) I'm located in Baltimore, MD 21236. This car cost over $120k new and has just been MD State inspected and has been serviced at the dealer since it was bought. Have all papers, manuals and keys! Let me know if you may be interested or have other questions!

Thanks for your time and consideration..

Why am I selling?? Several reasons...

First of all, I bit off more than I could chew on this car. It's more car than I really needed. Secondly, I want something I can better afford.. I'm looking at buying the girlfriend an engagement ring soon and afterwards, we'll be looking for a new house together, etc. A Mercedes S55 really doesn't fit the bill with that. Not that I'm getting a mini van or anything..
