Just got my 2nd AMG - ML55!

da_guitarist · 04-12-2012, 09:55 PM

Always wanted one of these. Had a 320 a while back. Just added the beautiful ML55 below to the garage.

2000 w/ 75k miles, clean as can be. Was very impressed when I went to see it. Look forward to reading about your finds!

Hoping to find a simple DVD option. Probably a full replacement would be best. Just put a double din in my w208 clk55.

Great, the ML55 is really nice, I also have an 01 CLK55 and I'm (also) thinking on a ML55... I'm hesitating at the moment

When I see you, this makes me feel better thinking that I'm not the only one but you did it

and I bet that now you are happy about it !

Super happy...can't wait for it to arrive. I was in Chicago for work and they gave me a good deal on the vehicle.

My 208 has been awesome and I had a ML320 that was great years back. I'm expecting the 208 and 163 AMG to be a dynamic duo

The ML55 compliments the CLK55 very nicely

Before BMW X5M or Cayenne TT, there was the ML AMG so Mercedes is always two steps ahead of the competition.

About to look at similar ML55 with slightly higher mileage. Do you mind sharing which bid price won your AMG?

da_guitarist · 06-12-2012, 10:53 AM

$11.5k, now i have to figure out how to change the fuel filter. DIY posts, here i come...

remember that your gas mileage will be between 12 and 16 mpg before you purchase...my w208 with the same motor gets 22mpg, so I was expecting closer to 18.

Other than that, great car. Love to drive it. might update the in dash for DVD. No need for navigation built in these days. The radio ROCKS.

Wow 12mpg? I average 16-17, and I break 20 if I'm on the highway alot. I thinks you are to happy with the loud pedal.
