2011 E550 Coupe
Going to look at 2011 E550 Coupe - advice on things to look for?
Hi all. First post on MBW, hopefully not the last. Have always wanted a Merc and I'm going to go look at a 2011 E550 Coupe with about 60k miles on it. Is there anything in particular I should be looking for with this year and with this mileage? Anything to feel for while driving? I'm usually pretty sensitive to things that don't feel or sound right, but anything specific that might indicate a problem? It's pretty nice, black on black with AMG wheels. Hope it's good. Thx all !

The transmission and engine are bullet proof, but make sure the fluids were changed on time, especially the transmission oil. Idk if the coupe had air suspension, but if it does make sure to get the records of any failures in the past.

Does it have service records? Has it had its 60K service?
Pretty much a well build bullet-proof car if........ it’s been properly maintained.
I got mine as a lease return with 17K miles. After 6 years, it has 34K Miles without issues with annual oil/filter changes and biannual brake bleeds.
