2003 E55 87k price check

Hi,
I can get a 2003 E55 with 87k upgraded rims, new tires, Brabus lowering kit rear sunshade, active seats for 16,5k.
Other than the lowering kit the car is stock, is it a good deal?
Thanks!

Is a clean title with all records reported to carfax.
I looked and looks very clean inside out.

Just make sure the Valeo radiator issue. Check if still have the Valeo radiator, it can cause transmission fail for 03 and some 04 model.

It's not..

Exactly a steal or a bargain. There are a ton of these cars for sale, and lots of people ( not necessarily me) are pretty shy about 03's. If the body is reasonably straight and mostly unpainted, the interior is fresh, and it has some records, probably fair. But no, not a bargain for an 03 with roughly 90k.

You can't get any cheaper than $16500 with clean title. For 03 its in the average mileage so the price is more than fair. Too cheap to believe.

I agree. 16500 is about wholesale for an 03 with that kind of mileage.

Mmmm..

Courteously disagree. Lots of these cars for sale, not as many selling. Even though it has reasonable miles for a 9 year old car, it still is a 9 year old performance car, with little if any financing (yes it matters), old tech, and not cheap to keep up. If this is such a steal, why isn't it already snapped up? There are also two or three nice inexpensive e55's on this board that have been for sale for weeks, with no results--and we gotta figure they are nicer than the majority of the "rode hard" put up wet ones.
Don't get me wrong--great, fun cars and I'll prolly own another one. I'll say it again, it's just harder to sell an older performance car than it looks.
