Just saw this so I thought I would post it up in case anyone is interested...
95k non navi but for $4900 doesn't seem bad.

 

I guess a link would help huh?

seems like a good price. The front bumper looks like it is hanging off in that 1 pic. Also would need tb service etc. He didnt give much info on the car.

 

DAMN, HELL OF A PRICE!!
That car would be 9-10k here in bradenton, fl..
There is a guy around town that has an auto 02 tl-s and is asking 12k, and is only lowered on rays wheels and thats it.. and people are actually thinking it is worth it...lol

 

Yea I'd buy it just for the trans. Too far away though.

 

It has to be rebuilt or salvage

never trust anyones knowledge of cars that spells brakes........"breaks"

 

Most Americans are bad spellers. It does not mean that they don't know about cars or didn't graduate college. Look how many people mix up the words lose and loose etc.

 

How much does it cost to ship a car across US? I'm looking to buy a CLS6 to gut for my TL.

 

It looks salvaged. Rear quarter panel, rear bumper, front bumper, all look like they were repainted.

 

I had my CLS shipped from central FL to Colorado Springs and IIRC it was between $800 and $900. That was with the dealer taking it to them (I think the drop off for them was near by) and having it delivered to my house.


Also IIRC the gas prices were about the same then as they are now. So it should still be close. Although Phoenix is a little further, and it is cheaper if you pick it up at the dock. The dock station for the semi to drop off the car was in Denver so I pain the extra to have it brought down to the Springs on a flat bed.


Try DAS http://www.dasautoshippers.com/ That's who I used.

 

Oh damn! That's a LOT cheaper than I thought. I was expecting ~5k. Thanks for the info.

 

yeah, its crazy how cheap it is, but its true.
my uncle had a truck shipped from michigan to florida for $500, but that was a couple years ago...

 

Yea my friend bought a 240sx from co part. Payed $800 for the car and $800 for shipping from Cali to Chicago.

 

I just spoke with him on the phone. he pretty much said that it is mechanically sound and a clean title, but has cosmetic issues, and that he'll email me pictures. He said a cigarette burn on the seat, nicks in the pillar, cracked windshield, and a missing console piece?

Depending on how the pictures look, I still may give it a shot. My family is from Norfolk, so the drive isn't really a problem for me.

 

Cool beans, hope it works out...

 

He says it's silver, but the pics tell me Anthracite...

 

I'm not gonna go for it..

 

All of that looks like it can be fixed pretty easily, but I understand why your staying away from it. Who knows what else could be wrong with it that's hidden or not mentioned....

 

ouch! might wanna step away from this one. could be fixed up if you have the time to spend in the junkyard.

 

Anyone whos lets their car go like that, lets the engine and trans go the same way.

I would not touch that car.

 

damn that is the most trashed/crappily maintained 2nd gen cl i have ever seen. How do you even wear down the steering wheel like that, wear sandpaper gloves.

 

Damn, you get what you pay for huh? Oh well...

 

Exactly. It's not to much the damage in the pictures, but what they imply.

If I never gave a shit about my car for 10 years, I don't think it would ever get that bad. That's just.... awful.

 

Dear lord, that is bad. How do you even do that kind of damage in 8 or less years?

 

jack daniels

 

horrible...never gonna sell that POS..
But it was entertaining to make fun of it

 

Goddamn, thats horrible.

That made me chuckle. That POS makes me cringe. But it also makes me appreciate my 8 year old anthracite CL a bit more.

 

5 Speed?

The funny part is that after the guy sent me those pictures, I just decided to make no more communication. Then about a day or two later he sent me more pics. Then a bit after that, a text asking if I got the pictures.
Someone's desperate!

03_Type_S.. those wheels kill it! There is a 99-01 TL in town that has similar wheels, and it looks :ghey:
The dealer has probably been test driving it only going into 5th gear. Or maybe they just have "manual" written on their papers and it got entered into the computer as "5 speed".

 

That's just disgusting. That poor Anthracite CL... On a less nauseating note, there's a decent white CLS6 on WashingtonDC.CraigsList going for $7500 with 100k and two owners.

 

The first lincoln post from Craigslist is actually my car. Here I got a few more pictures on a different listing.
