Been looking hard at CLS and E55. Really like this one. Does anyone know anything about it? What do you think is a fair price? TIA

BoBcanada

was looking at it today! looks very good! go for it.

Price looks high to me. As far as I'm concerned mods are worth zero and possibly even hurt the resale value except for appearance mods. Having said that, it looks like a nice car, call and make a lower offer.

2K6E55

Nice ride. Does K3 really put out 610hp?

HouTxCLS55

I think it's priced to high by at least 10k

Only one here on the forum that rolls with OZ Superlegs was Gid_E_Up and his was silver.

dam!!!!!! the car is local too... I should go take it for a test drive?

It's priced way too high, even with the mods. I wouldn't pay more than $70k for it, and that's being very generous. Don't get me wrong, it's an amazing car, but at that price you can afford to buy a stock '06 and mod it yourself to that level for much less money.

e55 baller

headers - 3.5k (Evo)
pulley - 1.5k (Hennesy)
ECU - 1.5k (Kleeman)
TB - 2.75k (VRUS)
EVO cooling unit - 2K

about 11.5K in mods/install, probably another 2K in install if you do K3 right.

I'd say figure out the selling price for the '06 with those miles and add 11.5k for DIY. I would guess for the right buyer the mods should sell for 40-50 cents on the dollar...of course to a dealer they can't certify it so they wouold not buy it hence even value it.

I once had a 700 rwhp Supra..20 K in mods. Went to car max and they offered me 11k, lol. 15k from Toyota. I sold it for $35k on ebay.

Luxury Motors has a black 2006 E55 for $69,900. It has 14 ticks. Just posting for comparison purposes. Did notice that neither car has Keyless Go.

Can Drive 55

Or distronic.

dragonAMG

No way... I think that is a good price. You guys are crazy.

All I know is everytime a 55 seller lets his car go for cheap,it kills the sale for the next guy.Goes for everything else as well I guess.

If you are talking about the Ebay car linked above, it does have keyless go. Looks like its optioned fairly well.

ROCKETW19

yes all that and a LSD rims and tires i think it was 26k worth of upgrades so the car would cost 55k. this is worth it if these are the parts you would want to put on your car . if you dont like the parts then its not worth it.

55fanatic

guys I think its a scam... a member with 2 posts shows the ebay ad, but when I click the link I get redirected away from ebay...

Careful

tws_andrew

no scam. I am honestly interested. Just sold my DD and looking at a CLS or E. I was looking at Speed Thrills lease take over on his K1 CLS55 but I fear I am too tall at 6'5" for a CLS. Would definately mod either car myself but likely only K1 or k2. LSD is nice though. Wheels would not be my choice but I had them on an S4 long ago and they are very light and strong. If they will take low to mid 70s I will take it. That is what that car would go for stock where I am located. I don't think mods really ad much but it saves me a trip to vegas or evo to get the install done. Anyone near Chicago willing to look at it for me?

Hey what cars do u have over here in chicago? and where do u live? i live i glenview, and would love to see a sick 65....

Kev04C320

I've heard about this place before, I think the listing is legit

gujupimpster89@

I actually passed by this place yesterday, and i saw this 55 outside, it was infront of the rest of the cars, and it looked nice, and now that i know that its been kleemanized, even better.....

z282c4

It also has Kleemann cams, Kleeman lsd and all work done at mercedes benz dealer with $17k in receipt without the wheels. If you can get a stock one with no paintwork and good options for low $70's, then at 50 cents on the dollar its probably priced right.

AMG_55

i love those wheels, very nice
how tacky is the badging kleemann
e55 amg

btw,
that price is way too high, those mods should be worth 5k or so on resale

EUROTEK//AMG

what more would this car need for a Kleeman stg. K4 ?

vader

I wonder if this dealer is associated with D&M Corvettes ? D&M Corvette has been around a long time...the owner is a real car guy. Gujupimpster...I'm right down the road in Niles....I think there is another member here in Glenview too.

ProjectC55

If you get that car for mid 70's I'll be shocked!
