Your worst nightmare...
That thing has been sitting on ebay for a decade. This one will not sell at their premium price of 60K +, no one in their right mind would pay that much for that car. It could have renntech jetpacks and still too much. LOL! They think just because its renntech stage 5 it gives the option of raising price an extra 20-25K...

if it went in the 30's I would pounce on it. Still the color is to die for. They should strip the car from its mods, sell the mods and sell the car stock.

Rims are ok...I'd refinish gunmetal, though. Renntech and Brabus are known for sticking a heavy premium for their work...you can't argue it's good work, though.

It just depends on your perspective on value for your money or if your wallet/common sense can live with the premium.

I would pick up a white one for 35-37K with all options like this one and slap on the renntech ctage 5 set up for 8-10k and be around the hood of under 45-46K....that's what i would do. But not every one wants the hassle of shopping and installing parts...

someone will step up to that car eventually. Someone who doesnt frequent these forums, and who is not in touch with the market. All it will take is them to get someone financed, and that car is sold...

I agree BTW. Its WAY overpriced...

I have an Alabaster White 05' 55 with ONLY 25k miles and full warranty.. If I could get $38k for it... ITS SOLD!!!!!!

takers?

60k Plus is a huge price tag!!! I would even consider selling my car with much more mods on it for that price, not that anyone would ever offer me that but still....crazy!
