Most of our vehicles are still under factory warranty and have been meticulously maintained and garage kept since new. They are also Carfax certified and undergo a comprehensive mechanical inspection to ensure all our vehicles are of the highest quality and in immaculate condition.
Purchasing a pre-owned car via the Internet can be a challenging experience. Our attention to detail and extensive knowledge of the used car industry allows you to disregard any fears you may have had about purchasing a pre-owned car over the Internet. After all, whether you bought your vehicle as a daily driver or a weekend toy, your vehicle is one of your most expensive investments. Please choose the right person to assist you when making your investment. When selecting a car to add to our inventory, we use the same critical eye and attention to detail that we would use in purchasing a car to add to our own personal collection; we only carry vehicles that we would own ourselves.

Featured is a RARE 1-of-500 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG Kompressor Supercharged Coupe in EXCELLENT condition with UNDER 103,850 MILES. The exterior of the car is finished in gorgeous Tectite Grey Metallic complimented by a pristine Charcoal Leather AMG leather interior with elegant Wood trim - an absolutely gorgeous combination. VIN: [WDBPJ74J93A038833]
The CL55 AMG is based on the CL500 Coupe but with the addition of an intercooled screw-type supercharger and a slightly longer stroke results in 5.5 liters, 493 horsepower, and 516 lb-ft of torque. Compare those numbers to your ultimate American or German production sports car. This is serious pavement-buckling, addictive-sound-like-you've-never-heard-before kind of performance - all from a bank-vault-solid premium luxury coupe.
All this brawn is reined in by sophisticated technology. The handbuilt eight-cylinder engine features a Bosch engine-management system that monitors engine load and speed and calculates when to activate an electromagnetic clutch for the supercharger's drive belt. Under light loads, the engine operates as a naturally aspirated unit. Under acceleration, and full-time above 2700 rpm, the supercharger seamlessly engages to deliver a maximum 11.6 psi of boost.
A stainless-steel, 2.75-inch four-cat dual-exhaust system efficiently scavenges all that air and lends the car its signature voice. Behind this potent mill is the Mercedes electronically controlled five-speed automatic, upgraded to AMG status. The SpeedShift programming delivers 35-percent-quicker shifts, with gear changes manually controllable from two steering-wheel-mounted buttons. Mercedes' ABC active suspension and ESP stability-control systems also are programmed with a more spirited AMG calibration. Bigger 18-inch Z-rated tires and larger, cross-drilled brake discs with eight-piston front calipers complete the ground-hugging hardware.
Driving one of only 500 U.S. '03 CL55s will not only proclaim your penchant for performance, it'll also generate your very own (automotive) celebrity sightings.
This 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG has the factory split 5-spoke AMG 18" wheels. The 18" wheels are in above average condition with only minor scratches and imperfections. The front wheels are wrapped in 245/45ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sport tires and the rear wheels are wrapped in 275/35ZR18 Sumitomo HTR ZIII tires in the rear. The front tires have about 80% treadlife remaining and the rear tires have about 20% treadlife remaining. Even with the huge amount of power from this nearly-500hp Supercharged engine, this car has tons of traction and grip; it REALLY PULLS HARD! This car has a factory installed alarm system, which features a fantastic anti-theft and keyless entry system. We have 2 Key/Alarm remote for this car with all the ORIGINAL MANUALS and service records.
This car is in excellent shape and its condition is consistent to a car with less than half the mileage both inside and out! The body is clean and free of any major blemishes, scratches, or dents. Like any used car there are various minor imperfections around the car from everyday driving. There are some very minor rock chips and scratches that are hardly noticeable. Most of these imperfections have been touched up with authentic Mercedes-Benz touch-up paint and are very difficult to see. There is a small crack in the front bumper below the driver side foglight that has been professionally repaired and a a very light scratch on the front passenger fender near the headlight. The interior is in excellent shape and was obviously well-maintained by a non-smoker. There is a airbag light on from a code for the passenger side seat lock. The A/C blows strong and ice cold. Like all of our inventory cars, we had it inspected and serviced and it passed with a clean bill of health.
We can't stress how hard it is to find a Tectite Grey Metallic CL55 AMG Coupe, let alone one in this condition! This is a well-cared-for South Florida vehicle previously owned by a non-smoker. This truly is a one of a kind Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG Coupe that turns heads everywhere it goes. Here is your chance to get a VERY deep discount on a BREATHTAKING 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG Kompressor Coupe that originally cost OVER $120K BRAND NEW!!

Deposit
If you are the winning bidder, you must contact us within 24 hours of winning the auction to set up payment arrangements. It is the buyer's responsibility to contact the dealership; it is not the responsibility of Exclusive Auto Imports to contact the winning bidder. The successful high bidder will submit a $500 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of the close of the auction to secure the vehicle. We require a $500.00 non-refundable deposit within twenty-four (24) hours of winning the auction. This deposit can be made through PayPal with any major credit card to the email address: "Sales@ExclusiveAutoImports.com". In the alternative, the buyer can make a deposit via secure wire transfer. If the deposit is not received within the required timeframe and alternative arrangements are not made, Exclusive Auto Imports reserves the right to make the vehicle available for sale to another buyer.
Payment of Balance Due
The buyer agrees to pay the remaining balance due (plus applicable fees and taxes) within 5 days of the close of the auction. The buyer must email/fax Exclusive Auto Imports a legible copy of his/her state issued driver's license and a current/valid insurance card after the deposit is made. As final payment for the vehicle, we will accept a certified bank check/cashier's check, bank loan check, wire transfer, or cash. We will not release the vehicle and/or title until funds clear. All financial transactions must be completed and funds received by Exclusive Auto Imports before delivery of the vehicle can be scheduled. If you pay cash, you can pickup the vehicle immediately once the currency is verified - there may be a small fee applied for excessive cash handling situations. If you pay by wire transfer the vehicle will be available for pickup once funds are available in our account. If you pay by bank check, you will have to wait nine (9) business days or possibly longer until the funds clear. If payment is made using a check we will hold all vehicles and titles for nine (9) days or until the funds clear.
Additional Fees and Taxes
The exact amount you can expect to pay for state-required tax, title, and tags will vary depending upon (1) the state in which you live, (2) the county where you will register your vehicle, (3) the weight of your vehicle, (4) whether you will have a trade-in vehicle, and (5) the type of license plate you select. All car dealerships have a mandatory dealer fee that they HAVE to charge ALL customers by state law. Some dealerships have been known to charge more than $1000.00, but we keep our fee as low as possible. Our dealer processing fee is $375.00 and covers the preparation of the vehicle, a professional detailing, the preparation of documents, filing tax, title and registration forms, and the expenses of maintaining inventory. Vehicles titles may be held by banks or lenders as collateral for loans. In many cases there may be a delay in receiving the original documents up to 21 days from the time we pay a vehicle off. While we usually have all titles in our possession at closing, there are rare occasions where we may be waiting for them to arrive. All titles will be overnighted at our expense if that is the case. Out of state buyers are responsible for all state, county, city taxes and fees, as well as title/registration fees in the state that the vehicle will be registered.
Shipping
The buyer is responsible for shipping and/or pickup of the vehicle. All shipping charges are the buyer's responsibility. We will assist the buyer with finding a shipping company and usually save our customers hundreds of dollars when shipments are booked through our broker - call us at 954-972-2277 for more information. We deal with both "open" and "enclosed" transport trucks. If the vehicle is going to be shipped, full payment must be received before the vehicle is delivered to the shipping company. We will not be responsible in any way for claims arising from shipping damage. Shipping companies have insurance policies that protect buyers against damage. If you choose to pickup the vehicle yourself, we can meet you at our local airport. This service is free of charge; however, we do require advance notice. Also, certain additional state fees, such as Florida state sales tax, may/will apply if the vehicle is delivered within the state of Florida regardless of the residence of the buyer. It is very common for shipping to be a more cost-effective option when weighed against all the actual costs for picking up the vehicle in person.
Financing
If you are planning to finance this vehicle through a lending institution, you must secure the loan prior to bidding. Secure all finances and be able to follow through with the payment before you bid. Please call us if you require assistance in obtaining financing.
