Help me find my next E55

I enjoy all the help that members provide when others are searching for cars and ask that you keep me in mind too. I frequent this site, ebay and occasionally browse a couple of others but I'm sure I miss a bunch.
My budget is under 30k so an E63 is probably out, which leaves me looking for an E55.

=Very fussy about condition, must be in excellent shape.
=Prefer 2005 or 2006
=I'm not fussy about color.
=Prefer low option cars.
=Mileage under 70k
=Headers, pulley, throttle body, tune, wheels would be fun.

If there are members here that would consider selling, send me a PM for confidentiality, otherwise you can post in this thread.
A little about me. This is the 5th Benz for me. I am ready to buy now. I won't be financing and I don't need to sell anything to buy.
Thanks in advance,
Warren

So youve been making fun of others for not owning an E55 and you dont even own one

I just searched all my recent posts and did not make fun of anyone for not owning an E55. I did point out that Toad has made hundreds of posts without owning one. I have owned 4 and have a little over 400 posts to put it in perspective.
Please keep this thread on topic and if you see or hear of a good one, please let me know.

Sorry, but you won't find this. I'm looking for the samething, and you will have to lower your standards as I have...biggest thing is the year you are looking for. Nothing like that in and 05-06...maybe 03....better then nothing though

Should buy Derricks. It is a few thousand more then you want, but your expectations on a clean car with mods for your money may be a off a bit IMO.

Why didn't you keep your 04 and add $5K of mod yourself ? At least you will get new header, pulley, TB........ And when you buy other one, you still have to pay tax. Anyways, Good luck !
