P.S. ...and yes, because of how lightning fast your car is, the first time I would have drove it I would have crashed it, RIGHT THORUGH YOUR TRAILER HOME'S WINDOW...because... of course you, SCREECH, are the only one that knows how to drive it! You're the man! After that statement, you then proceed to knock someone for wanting a 63 instead of a 55? You must be a bored guy! I like them both and whatever comes my way...I will buy...if that's ok with you of course!?

P.S.S. You also mentioned storing it...where on earth do you store a car in a trailer park?
Why don't you go back and read what you asked about checking my car out knowing it was black on black and you asking me for my number.I don't need to sell my car as its been paid off for some time and I can assure you I don't live in a trailer park.how old are you? You can't even take a jab about an e63 when its well known that s simple pullied e55 will destroy it.

Good luck trying to find your car and please go back and re read what you asked me about checking out my car.

Yes my car is modded but done right.when you look at your next car just look at what tires are on it.if it has some cheap brand tires then you know the person has put nothing into maintaining that car.

I just dropped 1400 on rubber that could of been your car and I'd bet you 100 bucks the second you saw my car you would be all over it.

It has over 5k of carbon fiber just under the hood lol

I really do hope you get a nice white e63 and I do get a chance to run into you and pull 15 car lengths

Edit

Here is your post about looking at a black on black

I had to dig back at you on the statement that if I drove it I would probably crash it! C'mon now my friend...I have 7-8 cars right now and probably had over 100 of my own personal cars and many were pretty darn fast. In 1988 I was going 108mph in a boat...unheard of at that time. So anything without speed to me is boring.

So moving on...I was only looking at the blk/blk car bc it was a perf. package and they are hard to find and supposedly very desirable. Look...having 100 cars plus means that I will not keep it for more than a year or two and then probably get into the newer body style...waiting to see if the 2012 cars are holding up with the bi-turbo. That said...and no offense...I do not like all blacked out cars...I do not care for carbon fiber and the mods are too much for me. I am sure it is fast and many people love the blacked out look...just not me. It sounds like you take care of the car incredibly like most forum guys. Why do you think I have looked at 6 cars already? I want one that was taken care of as I will do the same, it just needs to be what I want. You and everyone else can blow past me by 15 lengths everytime...I do not care...10 years ago I would have cared! lol Enjoy your beast and good luck in your sale if you are selling it.

No my statement stands,you would crash my car. I drove it the other day and went sideways on the higheay at about 50 and almost lost it.You have no idea how much torque my car has and how easily it can break the tires loose.

We all know that you have to be careful in the cold weather, ground is cold, tires are cold= slippery. Especially when you have new off brand, cheap tires!

Ok John Force, I get it...have a great day!

$35k and you can have the "panty dropper squared." J/K, I don't think I could part ways with my White Pano with all the trimmings young lady.

this was with mikey Thompson drag radials and drive my car 90% of the year with drag radial on the back lol

There is no tire that will hold 620rwt at 2k this is me easily going sideways in 55-60 deg weather and you can clearly hear the tires screeming for grip and yeah my statement still stands that you would rock my car into a ditch not knowing how it reacts on boost.

Will all you ladies calm down. lol

Here's a quick video of my fireturd back when HPTuners still owned it. I assure you its only gotten faster since then and has carried the wheels to well past the 330 by accident. You wanna talk about a noob getting into a car they don't know and going into a ditch. This car has held several records in the F-Body world.

I'll try dig up more recent video.

I've run into cars from the NE and they always had beat up bumpers and rusted earlier then normal due to the road salt. Skratch is right though what tire is on the car usually is a good indicator of how the previous owner maintained a car.

I don't see how I can agree with that tire comment one bit. I have had cheap General Exclaim tires on mine at one point, and currently have Pilot Super Sports. As you see cheap and expensive, so does that mean I kinda maintain the car? I didn't maintain it but now I do?

Craig runs some cheap tires on his 20s (cheap being a relative term, but cheap for the size). There are also many reviews on said tires that they are pretty good tires, but just happen to be cheap. I don't think Craig neglects his car, but his tires tell you he does because they were $240/each and not $350 like mine?

And you think anyone cars about your useless comments? Nope.. Your statement above is just a blanket statement with no factual evidence.

Where were you at MIR by the way

were not talking about 240 dollar tires were talking about 120 dollar ones and yeah the tires are the most important part of the car,its the only thing keeping you from the ground and if you rather save 200 bucks on tires then god knows what you have put off fixing with the rest of the car.

Ill bet my car that the white e55 in this post had the ****tiest tires you could fit on the wheels.

Yeah but yours is garaged so you have a valid point. If your driving it in the winter and all that salt, I wouldn't buy it. You can tell if a car has been beat to **** or not and most of the cars in NE are with this crazy weather. Some people baby their cars but not all.

Coming from a guy who says I have more parts in my garage than actually inside my car.

I can careless about MIR or any other track event. Seems like you need the attention to go to meets so people can like you.

Just get Hankooks, middle of cheap and expensive. I think they are great tires for the money. I do hear good things about General though

Well...to all of you Northeast bigots...lol I have personally bought cars from here from fanatics and I have sold cars to guys who couldn't believe how nice they were. It is the person who owns the cars people not the area!!!

Believe it or not the next car that I actually put a deposit on this morning is a California car that ended up in Conneticut and trust me...it was never drivin in the snow or salty roads. It is an 08 e63 with most all options, all except perf. package. It was purchased new in Cali. in sept of 2008 and I did a service history on it and it was serviced regularly. My guy who checked it out said it was maintained excellently. Carfax shows one owner from Cali., Beverly Hills, that is! I think Jethro owned it. Hopefully it is on the money and I will bring it home Sat. morning so I can stop searching for a car and get back to work!

P.S. It has continentals on it for tires...a set is $1000 at tire rack.

So, Screech...is it a good car from the tires? Because the last car I looked at had pilot sports and it was JUNK!

Well Dr jabbi...you live in NJ, that's one of the worst States going for rot....so regardless where you purchase a car from it will be nicely rusted in no time. I live next store in PA...and my car came from PA and my E55 is beautiful underneath along w/ my 25 year old Buick that also came out of PA. And Nomad....Black on Black is the ultimate color combo! And Skratch, I can do that at 60MPH in the summer w/ a 6 cylinder spooled w/ slicks what you posted in your video ( all in fun...no pun intended)

That is what I mean...NJ/NY/MA/CT/PA...weather makes these cars look like garbage unless you have a few cars and the AMG stays in the garage and hibernates in winter.
