19k mile CPO 2005 S55 for sale "feeler thread". south NJ/

A good friend of mine has a GORGEOUS black S55 for sale. The car only has 19,000 miles and is 100% "as new". I mean 100% showroom condition. Black/Black.

All paint is original, and car is 100% stock. CPO until 2012 or 100k miles. He needs $59.9k for the car... If SERIOUS... I will get some pics..

YES, I realize the market is soft for these cars, and there ARE cheaper ones out there.. However, this is a needle in a haystack car, with 19k miles on it. Price is firm. Price is the loan balance. no more/no less. He wants to get into an SUV, is the only reason for selling.

Its not my car. While I agree $59k is very strong for this car. NO WAY your finding this car at auction for $30k.. I go to Manheim several times a year...

What you'll find at Manheim for $30k, is a painted-up, 2003-04 S55, with about 50-60k miles, and no warranty..

The mileage on this car is unheard of. Their might be someone out there who can appreciate that.. Condtion is absolute showroom, and its CPO... $59k is loan payoff, thats the reason for asking this amount.. Offers will be considered.. But I dont expect to get any serious action on this forum... Just thought I'd put it up, just in case.

deeply upside down on this car.While you are correct about the auction cars,even a prime 19k example in the current market will only draw about 45k and that is dropping by the hour
