2006 E55 AMG
New E55 AMG owner
Hello guys,

I'm new to this forum and wanted to say hello. Just purchased a 2006 E55 AMG with 21k miles on it.

First thing I'd like to do is to put in a back up camera and an auxiliary port.

Wow sounds like a great pick up with 21K miles. I've had mine for a while now and love this car. I just wish I had more time to drive and enjoy it.

Are you talking about an Aux port for the radio? Mine has one in the glove box, top left corner I believe. I use an adapter to plug in my phone and listen to music. What I would love to do is the bluetooth adapter mod some day.

Congrats on the car!

Welcome.

Is this the black one that was for sale in VA? If so, appeared to be an exceptional car for the price.

on a separate note, if anyone needs a set of near mint condition 18" MSW OZ wheels with Dunlop Sport WINTER tires (in near new condition) mounted and balanced, send me a PM. Will work out a good price especially if you are in Virginia. (Im in Richmond). They are direct fits for the E55/E63

Not all of these cars had the Aux in, to my understanding they would have to have the option installed. It should be where others have stated.

I am unaware of a factory rear camera option, Seniors please correct this if there is one...?

I would recommend updating the Head Unit with an Android knock off, but sigh with that mileage I am shy on saying that bc that gem has to be mint!!!

Congrats

Yep, definitely sounds like a fair price. More than he would have gotten at Carmax or trading in, and you paid less than what a dealership would have been charging for it. What options? Dynamic seats? Pano Roof? Parking sensors? Distronic? Details! :-)
