Thanks for the insight.
I have been thinking that while I also wanted to pick up something new for the wife, I may just have her drive the E55 and keep it for another year.
My logic is that it has to be getting close to the bottom in the low $20K range so it may be a better equation to get another year of fun out of it for another $8K or so.
However, an SLK55 would be much more to her liking and they are falling like flies too.
It is a buyers market and I'm just waiting for an SLR at $150K!

What is that bottom corner number under Dec 2009 where it says $2,950 and $3,675? Surely those are not car values for the end of this next year!!

I would say part out for fast sale or try to find the right buyer might take some time...

I don't really see any mods on the car other than some bolt on appearance mods. Hopefully he won't loose too much on those. Mid 20's seems about right. I would be scared to see what it would go for without the warranty.

Oops, I didn't see that his car has only 23k miles on it. 27k isn't a bad price to expect to sell it for. good luck!

If suppose if you have to ask how much it will depreciate, you can't afford an AMG! I think I might have to try and knock another $10K off the SL65 to help compensate.
