Personal preference I guess. For me to be a serious buyer I'm looking at under 35k miles. Not that a 40 or 50k miles car is bad it's just a personal issue.

yes, but to get a 5-6 year old car with that low of miles - what kind of life did it have? tires probably rotted before roasted

Agree! I just wish I knew what was done. It looks like it has a HE.

What is the LED bar across the top of the dash above the speaker.....distronic? I haven't seen that before.

I like the look of the rear tail lights....smoked, but not "Darth Vader" dark.

Calipers appear to have been hastily, or carelessly painted and I see quite a bit of rash on the wheels. Otherwise it looks decent.

Mine has that, it is the parktronic. Looks clean, need a little TLC, wheels, tail pipes need cleaned, rear tires look shot and the are crappy Sumitomos, claipers are chipping. For $26000 I would buy it. No more then that though. He did mods, but yet he still has the crappy yellow city lights and fogs. Not a fant of tinted tails.

No kidding...........the Autocheck already says it has been to the auction twice. I would stay away from that car.

In the coming year I'm going to have to warm up the Search button and figure out the best products to for replacing those bulbs on mine too. It seems like an obvious oversight by MB to have a pure white headlight paired with yellowish running lamps. Kind of like an incandescent bulb compared to a halogen one.

AZNoptics here in the board. I did my city lights, fogs and corners. They match the headlights perfect! The stock bulbs suck a$$. Its the first thing I do to all my cars.

Nothing wrong with an auction car. Pull the car fax and get a VMI.

It was in the Quad Cities before Indy at an Audi dealership when it had 62k on the clock.

Looks like a nice car at a good price. Carfax would be interesting... at that price it must have some blemishes.
