This is a black on black (factory painted) S600 with 104k original miles and a brand new (not rebuilt) transmission installed at approximately 85k miles. This car was previously owned by none other than Eddie Murphy (documented proof) and I am the 2nd owner and have owned it since 55k miles. Every scheduled maintenance has been done at the dealership and the car still runs great. The trouble is the car is worth about $8k if I sell it all as one piece and the transmission alone was almost $5k so I am vetting the opportunity of parting it out to maximize the return. I know there are a lot of W140 owners on here looking for parts in good condition and this car is every bit one of the nicest you will see at this point. It has the "original" 20" Lorsiner rims and every possible upgrade so if you are interested in any part on the car, send me a note and let;s eee if we can make it work.

What a shame. Why don't you just ask for what you think you should get for it? Just because you think no one is willing to pay what you ask, does not mean that person does not exist. Just sell it for the total price of all the individual parts you think you get... maybe someone will surprise you and give you what you are asking for. It's not going to cost you a lot in effort to do so and it definitely will save you time in parting it out...and best of all, it will keep a working W140 on the road.
I agree with lcmlee..
Or you could e-bay as an "ex-celebrity vehicle" and set the bidding start at $50 000.. You might be surprised, there are MANY rich oil barons in the middle east that are HUGE fans of Eddie Murphy.. You could even get up to $100 000, money is like water to them.. Try that buddy, before viciously ripping this beautiful example of an S600 apart.. It won't cost you anything to give it a try at least comrade..

:bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::bowdown: THANK YOU thank you thank you comrade!!!!
Alyehi, where you at comrade??? Get this one also for your personal collection!!!
I will be glad to see this car find a home in one piece :thumbsup:
If he's really interested I'll get him an autographed photo with the car and if he's really in the market for the ultimate Benz's, we'll see if he's interested in a McLaren SLR (although he probably already has one).
Lol, he is just one person that would be able to purchase that vehicle for its true value.. Though I dont know how much of an Eddie Murphy fan he is lol.. :surrender:
As soon as you have it up on e-bay, drop us a link so we can watch the bidding, or pass it to someone who might just bid the right amount
You are a wise man MafiaDONI agree with lcmlee..
