looked at a 05

its was close to my area so i looked at drove it pretty clean car but i would just say it was average. the wheels were all chewed up and the tire had a slice from mounting it. 32$ they can keep it.

$32k is way too high for an 05 in beat up condition.

you should write books. I bet you could make a decent living at it. I was on the edge of my seat the entire 3 sentences.

Guess even an E55 with less than 30K miles can be a POS

LOL!


32K seems quite high! I paid 31k drive out with extended warrenty on my 05 E55 that had 51k miles. It was in very good shape. Though the wheels were in pretty good shape, I did get the wheels repainted at $130/each. Just an FYI

Concur on the price, way to high! I bought mine in SoCal for 30k with only 35k miles in perfect shape with clean carfax.
