Dang, he put a lot of work into that car. I hope he sold it because he wanted to.

Sad but true...sold last week. It was a whirlwind sale...brought it in on a Monday and sold on a Wednesday.

Ive never had buyer's remorse but sellers remorse is another thing. It was my first build and most difficult. I just hope the new owner appreciates it and takes care of it...

I thought I would never sell it but I got to the point I was never driving it and it was sitting in my storage unit since my garage only fits 3 cars (Suburban, SL65, and GTR) and the E55 was odd man out.

I'll be back though since I'm eyeing the new TTV8......and the new house I'm planning will have a 6 car garage and lift.

PS. I was eventually going to start a thread on it but I think I was still in some sort of pseudo mourning.

I remember seeing this car at the Eurotecks BBQ a few years back and was floored how great the car. Sorry to see it leave your hands. It was a inspiration to me when i had my C32. Your car is the reason i got my E55.

Damn Jon! I guess being a hit man for the familia is paying off.

Let me know if you need someone to watch your back.

It is sad to see your beast go. It was a very unique 55, the quality of work you put into it makes it an amazing car.

Hi guys, I'm the lucky one who purchased the car.

I've been looking for a while now and actually wanted to buy Sandoval's car last summer but I was too slow. I'm in Tampa and was shocked to see this one up for sale. The car is awesome and I'll do my best to keep it up to snuff.

This place turns into low ball heaven when someone posts up a car for sale.

Duhhhh, would you take 15 for it?

Talk about hitting the used car lottery!! I had pics of your car as my desktop background for quite awhile!

Congrats...she has been very good to me..the guys/gals on here are a great source of information. PM me if you need any info.

PS...There is a trickle charger attachment near the rear camera I had put in so you can plug in a battery tender while it sits. I have the charger we modified...I can ship it to you or drop it off.

As most MB owners on here will tell you that for whatever reason there has always been some battery drain if you don't drive it enough (whether it is stock or OE doesn't matter).

I'm thinking of selling. What do you guys think I could get for it? About 57k miles now.
