Cool Full Designo 2000 E55 AMG, 59k mi - VA (UPDATED)

Hello everyone,

My wife has left her job to take care of our newborn son full-time and we've got to cut back on our costs a little. This is an amazing car and you will probably never find another W210 E55 like this one. It has pretty much every option, and even has the Designo wood, leather, and paint package. It's in absolutely perfect mechanical condition, and the suspension is solid. I absolutely love this car and I have had no problems with it at all since I bought it last year.

Here are the specs:

-Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG Designo edition, 59k miles
-5-speed automatic transmission
-Designo brown interior leather with almost no wear (I believe this is called Cappucino)
-Designo 'Espresso' paint (looks black in the shade, dark brown in direct sunlight)
-Designo wood steering wheel and designo wood interior pieces, floormats
-19" chrome zenetti wheels w/ decent condition Dunlop tires
-Xenon HID headlights
-BOSE sound system w/ AM/FM/CD changer and auxiliary input jack
-Integrated phone/emergency contact system (I don't have the phone, but this can be upgraded to support bluetooth)
-Voice command
-In-dash navigation system (I don't have the CDs for this)
-Multi-contour driver and passenger seats (fully adjustable upper and lower back, kidney, and leg support)
-Power up/down rear sunshade
-Large power moonroof
-Set of all weather floor mats
-Of course the standard stuff: power locks, windows, keyless, alarm, SOS, power folding rear headrests, heated/cooled center console, dual climate control w/ activated-charcoal filter

This really is an amazing and rare car and it is completely trouble free. If you want any more information just message me. Whoever buys this WILL NOT be disappointed! I would not be selling if I didn't have to! Thanks for looking.

I am looking for $20k OBO (I realize the market for these cars is diminishing).


I WILL UPLOAD PICS TOMORROW!!

I did too before I bought my 01 and the closest I got was my 2-tone interior. Someone needs to jump on this!

I believe I know who the previous owner of that car was. I was and still am in love with that car, but he sold it before I was in the market and now I've got the C43. Good luck with the sale. I'm pushing everyone I know to buy it so I can keep it close for a later day

Cool hehe, I didn't get the meet the previous owner because I bought it through a dealer, but it definitely seems to have been taken care of.

I really wish I didn't have to sell this so soon after getting it..it has been the best car I've ever owned . I'm just not ready for it financially at the moment.

Alright, I finally got a chance to clean it up and take pics. It's still in need of polish/wax but I hope to take care of that tomorrow.


Tons of pictures here

For some reason I can't edit my original post...but I've decided to lower the price to $18k. Get it while it lasts!

that is a great looking car for $18K, do you have it posted on autotrader? Good luck with the sale. I would buy it but I already have one

Nope its only on forums and craigslist right now. If I don't have any luck this week I'll probably post it on autotrader. Thanks for the feedback

Regrets

This E55 reminds me of CiLKY’s (Jeremy’s) E55 out of Ashville, NC. ECTurboGSX . . . I see you’re from NC. Are you thinking the same thing? I believe CiLKY’s was a 2001 and no nav, but had the identical designo options and, just like this one, is an amazing looking vehicle. I still regret not pulling the trigger when CiLKY listed his. I can’t imagine letting it pass through my hands again.

roybotnik . . do you have the original wheels? Heated/Vented seats?

No, only thing I'm missing is original wheels. It's got heated seats, I don't know about vented? How can I check that?

No, your car doesn't have vented seats and parktronic (see pics below)... not sure about phone (is there any phone cradle inside center console? It's useless anyway ).

Uh, I didn't say anything about having parktronic, and yes it has the phone cradle. I really don't care about what you think is useful/useless, I'm trying to sell my car not compare my car to other E55s. It seems that all of my threads on every Mercedes forum have turned into a place for people to **** about some E55 they saw once or some E55 someone used to own. I really don't care if your car had one or two more features than mine, and please do not post pics in my sale threads. Thanks.

Whoaahhhh.... take it easy buddy. I apologize if I said something wrong... but just trying to answer your own question: "It's got heated seats, I don't know about vented? How can I check that?"

The pic (which somehow can't be linked) is actually one of your pics (not my car, not anyone else's car) showing your center buttons. Just do right click and click "properties" if you don't believe me

I mentioned about parktronic just in case someone is asking... and the phone as well. And just to be clear, I said "useless" because it's likely still a startac cradle... so no use for recent phones.

In summary, your car has all available options except parktronic and vent seats.

Ok no worries thanks for the clarification. I thought the links were to something else because they weren't showing up in my browser .
