2004 E55 (sold) 2012 E350 4M
so i closed on it today.. It was 28,500 04 27k miles, added a 2 year 24k warranty for 3,100... the warranty will pro rate so if I used 1 year and 12k i would get essentially half back... 100 deductible

Hell ya my comment about emoving having a mangina is quickly being quoted left and right... My plan exactly :-) anyway, ya I actually did wake up and decide I wanted a e55 so good call on that! Also, its kind of funny how you d bags lay all the forum rules down when in reality your attitudes are exactly what forums hate, I don't mind I love clownin' on insecure tools like yourself, but I usually am the nice guy helping people out not starting these arguments like you did. Im sure nobody likes you anyway and you've probably rounded up all your buddies you can to try and hate on me but in the end you look like the fool. Sorry I didn't weed through 40,000 posts but I did try and search and came up with nothing so better then the 150 post rule just a better search engine on these forums would be the answer. Thank god moosejaw isn't a politician writing up silly laws such as the 150 post one lol. Hopping on a plane to Sun Valley to ski for the weekend so probably won't look at your posts for a few hours ;-) you will have plenty of time to try and troll up this forum. Thanks to the others for the real answers and help.

I agree, but at least this one bought a car, we have a resident geek that just trolls. I gotta give this guy a little credit he is not a poser, he stepped up to the plate. Oh and if I was single with no kids, I would be in Miami!

I was going to say the exact same thing..... You beat me too it! When the milage gets up there, these things definitely start to see low 20's or under, but with low miles they are tough to find for that cheap. On NADA my car got a 8,000 credit for the miles. Dont know if NADA is any good, but its what i generally use.
1st of all, a 27000 mile E55 wouldnt make it to the auction these days. If it did, there would be some underlying issue guaranteed! So if this car went to auction it would probally do 25 to 26 and then a dealer would list it for low 30s.
Low mileage 55s bring GOOD money these days! This was a good deal!
I am also proud of you for becoming a member and within a month and 7 posts actually getting a car unlike turdfuk.
Sorry for getting on you but turdfuk has given all noobies a bad rap.

I just picked up an 05 E55 with 12K miles last week for $28K, was some real estate dude's extra car that he only drove on sunny days (here in the NW there is not a ton of those 
Always stored in a heated garage. Mint condition, kept up on service, and confirmed today with a full dealer inspection. Shopping warranties right now and then on to some tasteful enhancements
I'm super happy with this find, and I love this car. I previously had an 05 E55 that I had bought at 50K miles and put 40K miles on in 3 yrs.
I simply love the E55!
(btw, I tried to make due with an 06 330i for a couple weeks after selling my previous E55 and was miserable. That car is for sale now....)

When I bought my '04 E55 2 years ago with 28,XXX on the clock it was tagged at $30k.
You got great deal. I would no joke spend that today on a clean one owner, no stories, stock 55k over and over again at the price/milage.
Enjoy the beast
