On to bigger and better things! I'm sure it was sad to see if go, but if you're dumping it to upgrade I'm sure you'll forget about it soon. What's the new ride going to be?

If I was to get rid of mine I would jump on a used E55 as well. Best bang for the buck out there in my opinion.

If performance is what you want the new Z06 is the best bang for your buck. If you want a new sedan then the E55 is best bang. However If you want to stay in the AMG line up I would go for a used SL55 or maybe a SLK55.
