$32k for an '05 w/132,000. Or "Why do people think they get money back on upgrades"?

I am so so confused about this ad on ebay. Not only are the parts (that would somewhat make the price make a bit more sense) not listed, but there seems to be nothing about the car that would justify this insane price.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-Mercede...9Y2c3G&vxp=mtr

For after it's expired:
- 2005 E55
- 132,000 Miles
- Pewter w/ black rims
- FULL Description:
This is a 4door luxury rocket. Car has numerous power upgrades. Long tube exhaust headers, Large intercooler, lower supercharger pulley, Cold free flow intake system, carbon fiber sir ducts, 19 in wheels with z rated tires. Recent inspection. Car is ready to go and be driven.Has massage heat and cool seats, panoramic sunroof, LOADED.
Beautiful condition. never wrecked, no dents, rust, or scratches. Car is sold cash only, PLEASE NO TRADES. IF you cant CALL and speak to me on this vehicle, then I'm not the seller for you.
BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR $1000.00 NONREFUNDABLE DEPOSIT UPON SALE. 832-877-XXXX

Any ideas?

That's a lot. Can't imagine that. Although I probably wouldn't sell our wagon for that

'03 Brabus E55 K8, '11 C300 4matic
Hell I wish it had sold at that price. These cars should be collector items. But on Planet Earth, this is pure crack pipe. I paid way less for Apple55's full-on brabus k8...

Interesting. It was posted for $12,500 2 weeks before.

Mileage shows to be much higher... 142,000

Secondly... (Says in a sarcastic manner) So... what you're saying is... I can't sell my car for $54,000?


LMAO

Is that the "Visit Garage" error message in the dash? Or an airmatic error?
