Letting her go...
Just found a E55, can't pass it up. So the 43' has to go now! Asking $6900 on CL but willing to let her go to members here a little cheaper. If interested let me know. Thanks

I hope not, I have been driving the E55 since I picked it up! The 43' feels much tighter in the corners. BUT this things pulls like a bull!!! I love it so far but everytime I look at the 43' I remember how I felt when I bought her. I think im over her, but I will drive her until shes gone.

Yes, you're right, they do haul a**. I drove my E55 into work this morning and it does haul. However when it's me alone (99% of the time), I much rather drive the C. I like the small cockpit, the tossability, easy to park, rear seats that fold down for the occasiona HD run, and it reminds me of my pcar. It's my go-to-car. Driven when it's wet, driven when it's dry, and driven when it snows. Not 2 sure bout that last one yet..

Those wheels look great. If it wasn't an 8 hour drive each way, I'd make you a trade + cash offer on the wheels. Good luck with the sale, I hope you enjoy the E55.

Hope you enjoy your new car. I'd love to have a 2003 or newer E55 myself.

However I need more room so I'm parting with the C43 altogether. Its a tough break up, but family wins in this situation. At least you get to replace it with an E55.

I'm keeping my P car so i've still got something fun in the garage.
