Hello,

This may be a long shot, but I would like to see if anyone here is looking for a nice 4-door sedan to replace their 993 C2S or C4S . I have a 2005 Mercedes Benz E55 AMG, 2nd owner, flint gray exterior with black interior. Loaded minus distronic laser cruise and dual sunroof. 55K miles. Excellent condition. Clean/clear title.

Value $33K -kbb.com/private party/excellent condition. (Plus or minus cash from me. Title in hand on my car.)


Please PM or email me: red96m3atyahoodotcom .
Thanks in advance.

No offense, but you would have to give me 3 of them for me to even consider.

Something about four door cars ....just not appealing.

Actually... I think I saw a for-sale ad on Pelican where a 993 owner was looking to trade for a 4-door sedan due to a newly arrived baby. Think it was a narrow-body, though.

Not likely for a widebody S, but good luck!

I sold my 02 E55 to get my C2. But I had a hard time selling the AMG - I learn the blackbook pricing is useless on these cars. Good luck!

It's always worth a shot! Good luck in your search. Look forward to seeing you on RL with a 993.
Cheers,

Some member usually don't read the entire post before replying to them, you might be one of them. This transaction may be be a straight across trade. I had a 1996 C4S before, it was getting close to 100K miles and I wanted something nicer. A C2S or C4S prices can range from high 20s to 60s or more.

No offense, this car can give your C2S a "3" car lengths on a 1/4 mile run and win!

True. But your car is an older model E55, I think ~366HP, like the C55? My model is a V8 supercharged, 469HP 0-60MPH is 4.2 seconds. The newer E63 is 505HP but not as quick or fast like the W211 E55.

Like I said, it a long shot of finding the right owner of a C2S/C4S and the right situation.

Thanks.

u might be better off selling it outright, in fact there's a 993 owner looking for an 05 E55...his handle is...eesh...killsbugfast me thinks ...

I think you'll be having to add cash on your end. E55 are sweet, but I see a lot of '05 or '06 models on ebay for BIN in the high 20's. Quite a deal when you consider how much they were new and how much car you get for your money!

After 33 years of marriage I have learned..... it doesn't hurt to ask. You have great taste in cars. Good luck.

Thanks. The build sheet on my E55 was $93K! We got a minivan, so I would let that be my people carrier vehicle, and use the Porsche for a fun, get out once in a while car.

Thanks Chuck. From the beginning with Honda Civic, 300ZX TT, Supra, S2000, NSX, MR2, BMW M3, M5, MB E55 and now Porsches. Hopefully, one of these days, I can afford to get a Ferrari F430 or 599.

Hopefully, I won't be Porsche-less too long.
