Buying E55 AMG With Mods - What To Look For
Hi,
This particular car of my interest has a few mods under the hood and I wanted to get the expert's advise on what to look for in this car. It's a 2005, with 49K miles and the following mods below. The car also has some left over warranty through the current Local Dealer.
Throttle body
Headers
Computer Software
Pully's
Hi-Flow Cats
Resonator removal
Also, with the said modifications, what would you estimate the HP/TQ numbers be on this car? The current owner does not have any Dyno Sheets.

I'm not an expert so don't take this as "advice" but rather as me "advising" you but if this is M3 Addict, note that I'm merely implying and I could be wrong now, maybe you should mix up the name a bit and...and well nevermind the names are not similar in nature at all.
Anyways depending on the dyno I'd say 500rwhp or a little more. I have 500 on a Dynodynamics and I just have a pulley, HEMs, Mid section/x pipe and one hell of an awesome but SAFE tune from Jeremy who will be working his magic again when I put my TB on.
What's the asking price for the car?

Just searched this M3-ADDICT Fellow's threads/posts , seems like he gave you guys lots of trouble. Now I understand the hint of his name in every thread I made haha. The asking price is $31,500 Including Mods + Old Parts + Some Warranty.

^^ I love your wheels, what are they? Btw, I think so as well. Given the mods I thought it was a fair price. I turned on the car and some blue smoke came out. He assured me that was because the car had not been driven for 3 months. I then revved the car a few times and could not duplicate any black or blue smoke.
