Claims it's fully loaded but no pano roof? That doesn't seem all that great for a car with 100k miles IMO. Here's one with 85k miles for $4,000 less.

Yeah, lots of people say their car is fully loaded, but I've never actually seen one. I'd say it'd have to be designo to start and there are very few of those.

No mention of power trunk closer, side blinds, folding rear seats, if it had those in addition to the pano roof, then maybe you'd consider it fully loaded.

This place is a joke.
From the ad:

"It has a Hand-Build 6.3L V8 Engine M156 - (They are known to be very reliable)"


LMAO!

Well it does say the engine was rebuilt which was probably the head bolt issue. I'm sure it'll be very reliable now that it's been rebuilt...

Sounds like a car that was abused and beat to hell. Cars with all new drivetrain don't interest me. And new tank and fuel pumps. Sounds like it went under water or was a victim.JMO

You don't invest what the car is worth and then sell it even. Should have parted it out with bad engine and tranny

See here,

Fwiw a coworker (mb tech) is selling his 07 E63, black/black for the same money.

Certain items like the fuel tank and keyless go handles are pretty common failure items. Plus he said it was under warranty.

Oh and if it was loaded, it'd also have distronic, very rare to see that item.

As for the that black E63, hard to see what it has, he has the wrong VIN on there. Comes up as a 97 C36.

Lol. He must have his vin numbers mixed up. He also has a C36. I'll see if I can get the correct vin.

Correct E63 vin WDBUF77X67B034274

No pano, distronic or trunk closer, but at least he has the folding rear seats on the black E63. I think there was a thread a while ago about someone who was able to put in distronic, wasn't as expensive as I thought it would be. Also it's not clear what he means by aux cable. Either he has the ipod cable or has the aux input. As a MB tech I'm surprised he just doesn't put in the ipod cable, they're under $100 on ebay but dealer charges like $500 for it to take apart the comand and put it in.
