Thats alot of miles from a buyers perspective.Also the modifications add little to the value of the car unless the buyer is actually looking for them in particular even though I personally know your car is very fast
There's a '05 Black E55 CPO w 15,000mi at my dealer mint condition&they're asking $53k for it and it's been sitting for a month....
Private buyer,I'd say $40-45,000
Trade in mid to hi $30s

Do you have extended warranty? Just skimming through the ads, I think the price w/ vs. w/o warranty is quite big ($2-3K+).
I agree w/ parting out....
TB = $1000?
Cooling Kit = $500?
LSD = $1500?
Eisenmann = $1000?
C20 + tires = $3500?
CF Lip = $200?
Klee pulley = $600?
Header (I think stage 2 includes header, right?) = $1500?
==> TOTAL parts = ~$10K? minus labor ($1K?) = $9K
If you sell the car for $45K, you've got $54K already... or the other way around, if you want to get $50K, you just need to sell the car for $41K, which is VERY doable (a bit too low, IMO).

Joon, your E55 is a masterpiece. Now that Jody and Frank left, you have to hold down the fort
What would you get to replace that car?
Good luck with whatever happens bro!

That car is beautfitul. Dont sell it. At least 2 days a week I think to myself "why did I sell my E55". For what I got for it, I would have been better off keeping it.

Do u really regret your decision?
i guess more power/performance is not always good~
But, i see what you mean tho...
P-car is no good for everyday driving~
E55, you could drive the heck out of it 24/7 plus it's more comfortable and
easy to drive fast
Just make sure you call me as soon as the project is done and take me out for
craziest spin in SleeperX style~

if you love it why sell? specially since "upgrading" or "switching cars" will cost more due to the higher depreciation that occured on the e55
is it really worth it?
