It has 120k, that price seems correct to me for those kind of miles. put another 3k on top and get one with 80k IMO.

Is there anyone here that ever tried to swap a E55 AMG block in a C55? That would be a fun project.. I really like the E55, might be the next one!

Why are AMG compared to the BMW M series so under appreciated? BMW M series from these years go for way higher prices, while the Mercedes are more durable. Guess we ll keep that a well kept secret..

I want to say I've read about somebody swapping in the V8 from the S class so it may be possible to swap the one from the e class, but i'm sure its not a fun thing to take on.

I would of bought a E55 if I had a few more grand to spend. maybe in a year or 2.

I can't remember if he actually swapped the block, but I know hooleyboy had the full AMG supercharger unit on his car. I believe his car still holds the fastest C55 record.

eclectic assortment of cars
Sobering. $15k for a whole E55K, or a complete Weistec supercharger kit for a 63 car....

That e55 has been up there for at least 6 months, if not more. I'm sure there's something wrong with it.
