I have never seen this color? Looks hideous to me.

That is an interesting color, the code is 941:

Paint
941 aragonite blue metallic


You guys all say the price is high, I'm curious about the basis for that. When I looked on Kelley Blue Book, they say $56,500. NADA.com says $53,375. It seems to be between them, so I'm wondering about the high price opinion. Would you guys recommend a different source for price estimates?

right now the market dictates that you should be able to get high end cars for closer to wholesale, not retail.

I ran the VIN and got that code. I'm color blind, and could not have made that assessment visually.

I think that car used to belong to JuiceE55 on the forum. I cant get the pictures to load on autotrader but he had a teal E55 that has been bouncing around with used car lots all over the place. It had low miles like that car and the same equipment. The color was not my first choice but it had 19 inch 2 piece amg wheels last time I saw it and those were a great addition.

Yeah it looks real close but it had 19k on the odo last year. I do not see the 2 piece rims on her? My car was this color and it was always a head turner, I am not "gay" LOL. But I do live very close to West Hollywood? Maybe I am gay. Weird I have been married for 13 years, I have an affection for *****? Weird, you guys got me thinking? I LOVE THIS COLOR , oh man . BTW my car was in excellent condition and sold for around 70k here in LA(Sherman Oaks) last year. It sure is possible if you guys are real curious I will go look up the vin.
