Sold my lease to a local dealer who sold the car within a day of me selling the car to them.

Msrp: 73,725
Payoff $44,655
$650/mo x 36 months + 2k das = $25k
Sold for $53,000
Positive equity: $8,xxx

True Cost to lease per month $25k -$8k = $17k/36 = $472/mo

No longer a taxi cab driver 😭 @Jimmy N.

On the hunt for a new hellcat, picked up another e55 for dirt cheap, will probably flip within the next month or so.

Since some people's leases are coming due this would be a good thread to talk about potential options.

Congratulations, 2pac!
I hope that by "new hellcat" you mean the real thing, not a sedan with a good engine in it.

How much did you put in? I had about 2-3k in mods not including the radials in the back, pulley n tune, mid Muffler delete, etc etc

Will sell the radials + wheels to a friend just to recover some cash.

Well Pac man...do you feel naked:oops:
I do and I don't, this e55 is modded, just needs long tube headers + gutted mufflers and resonator delete to sound like a hellcat again... maybe a new intake as well.

2006 e55 almost 60k miles, heavily modded and producing about 700 to the wheels (690ish), and about 500 lbs lighter than a hellcat.

However these old German cars have me skittish, so much maintenance, so little reliability.

On the plus side I got massaging seats + adaptive cruise control back πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

Might end up keeping this one and garaging it.

Hoping something good pops up for the new charger widebody wouldn't mind Flipping this for 4-5k profit.

I searched e55 and it looks like a 4 door to me. Is it just trying to be like a Charger but the rear door don't open:LOL:

Said 2006 E55 that is what I find. There is an even better station wagon version though:LOL: maybe we should call it Super Taxi:ROFLMAO:

I'd prefer the 'wagon version. Then the four doors make a bit more snse.
Although 2-door wagons are obviously nicer yet.

No worries. Mountain Taxi's two extra doors are ALWAYS open to you 2pac. Glad you were ahead on the $$$. Very cool. Excited to see what you get next.
