Looking at a 2005 E55

Hi guys, planning on taking a look at this e55 tomorrow down in SD. Wanted to see if you guys know of this car, owner, or have seen it around the forums before. Wanting to do some homework on the car. Person who we spoke to is the the owner, but a friend who is the one handling the the sale. So, we are kind of hesitant, since he is not the owner and the OG owner is not going to be there. He says he has the pink slip with him from the owner.

Just wanted to see if you know of this car. Thanks in advance.

looks like it's in really good condition for a very good price. Love the color too.

I say pick it up if anything doesnt seem out of place

I'd say it is priced appropriately. Good car, nice color, good options, keyless, parktronic. Run a carfax, ask to take it to an inspection if you are worried.

I'd say go for it. I live about 10 mins away from Rancho penasquitoes. If you need something hit me up.

It looks really clean for that mileage. Just ask for records and get a PPI.

Clean for the miles and priced about right. I would definitely spring for an inspection as it provides peace of mind and is well worth the cost. If they aren't Ok having it checked out, I would pass for sure.

Nice! If it was me, and the inspection went well and everything checks out, i would buy it. It is priced very well IMO.

I'm in SD as well.. Call ACG and have a PPI done on the car Before you purchase.. Ask for James or Sean you can't go wrong, they will give you the truth on the car.. Good luck..
