Your worst nightmare...
Thinking of getting an E55

After beeing the proud owner of a C32, I have made up my mind. I am thinking of getting an E55. My color of course would be white, I love white cars. There is one in PA, with these features:

Burl Walnut
Parktronic
339 Lighting Package
Panorama Sunroof
432 Drive-Dynamic Seats
DVD COMAND Navigation
Power Rear-Window Sunshade
6-Disc CD Changer
Electronic Trunk Closer
Keyless Go

The car is a 2004 and has only 17K miles for $68,900.00. Can someone advise if this is a good buyPlease suggest what are some prices for 04's.

thanks

It's a fair price. Drop it about $3K, and it's a good price. In fact, I bet they would bite if you are serious about this purchase. Good luck.

What a coincidence! I was looking at the same car but my wife put a stop to it. She does not like white car. I think if you can get it for $65K then go for it. Good luck.

Thank you for the input, But white is a very nice color, around my way, there is one or 2 black E55, saw a silver one the other day, so i have not really seen many white ones and it just looks really good. Thanks, will try to negotiate.

Get it, you won't be sorry. White is great, I have a white e320 and it always looks clean.

I however saw a friends plain old black one yesterday and it was mouth watering, it's a knockout. I just would hate to try to keep it dust free. It's like my Dad says, "it's tough to keep a mirror clean"

my feelings about white cars, I think my signature speaks for itself...and i think 60k-ish is more appropriate pricing i say this because 06 E55s have been on high discount NEW...so a used 04 should go for lot less
