E55 (for sale if the right offer comes along)...too many others to list
Last I heard the car had mechanical problems, I hope those were fixed. I also heard a few of the parts belong to someone else. Proceed with caution members. Not trying to cause problems for you Vinny as it seems like you have some personal issues, I would just hate to see anyone get taken.

This is a divorce situation. The car has approx.83,000 miles on it, but is in great condition. Vinny was fanatical about keeping it clean and working well. I am willing to get the car checked out by a shop for anyone seriuosly interested. I just want the car off my hands. Please give me a heads up about what you think it may be worth.

Too little info, not enough pictures, too short answers.

Give us car info:

Year, mileage, is this 1 owner car, what mods come with it, where is the car, does he have the original parts as well, things like that.

Also get it detailed and take some pics. Outside angles, interior showing seats and dash, etc...

This will help you "get the car off your hands."

This car has been professionally inspected by our local ford SVT certified dealer to ensure its mechanical health.This report is available at the buyers request. This car has never been in a accident and has no paint work. I have the title in hand free and clear of liens. No liens mean no waiting. This car does have some after-market-performance parts installed and the car has been professionally dyno tuned and makes 458.45HP and 484.39 Torque. All stock parts are included with the car (except) the stock H-pipe.

After market parts include.

2)FLOMASTER CAT BACK
3)2.6 BLOWER PULLY
4)Extra idler for smaller pulley.
5)intake upgrade.
6)Mgw short throw shifter.
7)Custom tune by pro dyno.

Have a dealer take it auction, and be done with it...These days everyone tries to lowball and use auction figures to negotiate.. So the margin between private sale and auction value is very slim (MAYBE $1-2grand).. And no offense, but there are a LOT of timewasters out there right now. Who WILL waste your time..

My vote, Pay a Dealer a coupe bucks and take it to the sale, and be done with it. You'll never sell it private without good pics and a description. AND a darn near hosale price,
