Apparently, that = 33K in mods LOL.

Will either of those have 15,500 miles?

This car must be a super early '05 based on the center console.

Doorjamb info tag shows a build of 07/04 so that's one of the very first 05's. What month does Mercedes start the next model year production? July seems early.

Looks like a late 04. The center console is different from the 05's My 05 was 11/04. My 05 has the roll up center console not the split.

They meant 33K pesos. So $44k sale price but no parktronic or pano? Hope no one got suckered into this one.

It comes as a Carlsson kit and it sells for 25k so it probably was 33k with install.
