The loss on the sale will be horrendous, but of course we know that already.

totally sux. unfortunately you will make more on parting it out than selling as whole unless you find the right buyer. and correct me guys if i am wrong but you will only get back 1/3 of the price you paid on the mods. so is $55K what you are looking for?
can't wait to see pics as the car sounds amazing!

I'm the exact opposite. Drive mine to much and wife cannot wait to get her hands on it when I pick up a new ride soon. She appreciates everything the car/motor is all about.

I'm just curious.... you said your wife is making you sell one of your cars, so what is the other car that you are planning on keeping?
Good luck on the sale, you have one ultimate beast

Arnold sold off alot of state assets but California is still billions in debt. I think the words he uses now are "Pleeeez feds give us our stimulus money!!!"

Who pays the bills?!!!
My wife loves to say your always doing this or that(watching sports).
My reply is I know, I could be out cheating right now. I need to get my priorities straight

I'm def NOT supporting spousal abuse but...
The wife is making me get rid of one of my cars and unfortunately it's my
2006 Obsidean Black E55
The car has been barely driven and has every option except distronic with only 11,000 miles. Since I don't think i will be able to sell car as whole I am parting it out.
List of goodies all with less than a 1000 miles on them:
Kleeman headers
Kleeman pulley kit
Kleeman Top Mount intercoolers (1 of 2 in country) documented 60hp gain
Custom Kleeman exhaust
VRP port and polished heads
VRP intercooler kit
VRP throttle body
VRP cams
Spare BNIB VRP pulley
The Kleeman topmount intercoolers alone were 7 grand and are impossible to get as I got the last one. VRP mods installed at motorwerks of houston and then car sent to Brandon at Kleeman USA in CO for complete inspection and mod installs.
Will sell individually or as a smoking package deal
Car is currently at Motorwerks in MI awaiting a custom tune from Victor.
All the above is looking for a good home

I would explain to your wife the term "unrealized or paper loss". Then, agree upon how much that loss would be considering your extensive mods. Once you come up with a number, split the difference and take her shopping with an agreement that you get to keep the car.
If that doesn't work, PM me...I'd be interested in taking it off your hands with all the mods intact.
