E55 Buying Help

Hello,

Previous E63 owner looking at E55’s and have a couple of questions. Do extensive mods bring up, or lower the value of an E55? What is the best way to determine the value of a stock, or modded E55 considering the KBB values seem super low. I was looking at a 2006 E55 Black exterior/interior with 53k miles. Keyless go, Dynamic seats, front and rear parking sensors, heated and cooled seats. Mods are Kleeman 168mm CP, 77mm Supercharger Pulley, 80mm TB, Under hood ice tank, Full intake, Kleeman mid length headers, C63 mufflers, RaceIQ tune. Does anyone have thoughts on what the estimated value would be for that car and thoughts on the value of the same car if it were stock. Exterior looks to be 9/10 and interior looks to be 10/10. Any input would be appreciated!

This place is a joke.
$15-18k. Mileage is the main factor. If that car had over 90k miles I'd say $11-14k. This is assuming it's not riced-out with tinted lights and goofy tires stretched over ghetto rims.

Mods don’t really add value, these cars struggle to sell no matter what. Buying modded does save you lots of money and effort you can use on better things.

Buying ANY E55 after this much time is a crap shoot! So aim low and find the absolutely cheapest one out there!
