Selling My Beast- 04 Blue E55- tons of pics

Im really sad to do this but its one of those things that you have to do when you have to do whats best for your family. My wife and I are planning on starting a family and need an SUV. We both need our daily drivers so this has to be the one to go.

**** TONS OF PICS IN CLASSIFIED****

I am selling my BEAUTIFUL mint condition 2004 E55 AMG Kompressor. I brought this car from a dealer in Massachusetts. It was 100% stock when I brought it. It was near perfect. Before i did any modifications, I replaced everything known to give issues. I am a mechanic and did all the work myself at my shop. I am extremely meticulous about all my cars but especially this one since it my weekend car which only comes out during good weather. I never drive it into the city and only stay local in Long Island and sometimes Queens. If I know where I'm going has bad roads, I don't even consider taking out this car. I am selling it because I need a large SUV and don't have space for 4 cars. My wife and I each have our daily drivers and the new SUV would replace the AMG as our weekend vehicle. I have the MB Star Diagnostic computer at my shop and can do a full scan on the car in front of you to show you there is no issues. I have also "unlocked" certain features on the car through the computer like, audible lock and unlock confirmation, Tele-Aid message removed, "rest of world", -10 degree (fan kicks on 10 degrees sooner), etc. There are no malfunctions on the display. You will NOT find a more meticulously cared for and mechanically sound E55 out there. Every maintenance done on this vehicle was only done with original MERCEDES parts and fluids. I do have a folder with some receipts and such. I did an alignment yesterday on it (November 4, 2014). There are no SBC, Battery, Alternator, Airmatic etc. Issues. Car lowers when sitting for a day or two and rises right back up as soon as you unlock. I use it often to get in and out of my driveway. It's an awesome feature. Since I rarely drive this car, I change the oil every 2-3k miles. I only use Mobil 1 Full Synthetic 0W-40 and ONLY use Mobil/Exxon Super (93 octane) fuel since day one. This is not my first Benz as I am a serious enthusiast.

-Brand New NGK-LFR7AIX Colder Spark Plugs and Wires (16)
- -10 Degree Fan Mod (Fan Comes on 10 sooner than factory programing via STAR)

Im sure there is more things I'm forgetting. If you're looking for E55's, you're most likely, not planning on leaving it stock. Save yourself thousands on one that is done right with top quality parts by professionals. Although this car as 98xxx miles, it is below average for the year. Once again it is meticulously maintained. As is most cars of this age, it does have some rock chips on the hood but not on the bumper because it was painted and installed only 1 month ago. The front parking sensors work but when the bumper was painted, they didn't remove the original paint before putting fresh paint on. This caused too much paint on the sensors and make them think something is in front of the car when it isn't. The body shop agreed to remove the paint and put a light coat back on. I just never got the time to do it. Rears work fine. Asking $23000 for this beast. Make me an offer. You won't find another blue with two-tone blue and charcoal interior E55 like this. Come take a look. No test drives without cash in hand. CLEAN CARFAX AND TITLE. RUN THE VIN!

Car is being sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS. There is no warranty or guaranty. Buyer is responsible for shipping or pick-up. $1000 deposit is due at end of auction. If you have less than 100% feedback, contact me before you bid or your bid will be removed.

In all honesty, I have only seen one on google search images with the vossen CV5s....and now yours...you'd figure most E55 owners on on this forum and i guess we are one of the few. However, I'd love to get an exact # on how rare the blue is. I think it sets this car off.

I also think the fact that it has the two tone blue and charcoal interior makes it a bit more rare....got to love two tone interiors.

I believe that's a little different of a color. It's got more of a metallic look than this color

Let's be serious, how many E55. Out there that are lowered via star doesn't drop after a few days... The main thing is, it lifts right up no problem. Like I said, I will do a leak test on it via star if it makes you feel better.
