Full Tour & Review - 2002 E55 AMG

Hey everyone,

Almost 2 years ago I was seriously looking at picking up a late model W210 E55 but went a different route. This past weekend a local enthusiast asked if we wanted to check out his 2002 E55 for our show 'TestDrive'. Obviously we said yes.

We went out to find out why this car is called the Rocket, and I think we covered it pretty accurately. Hope this video helps anyone who's interested in picking up a W210. I'm really thinking about finding one again after having some time to drive this beast.

Nice vid! You should definitely post this in the specific W210 AMG section as well: https://mbworld.org/forums/w210-amg-82/

For the money, the w210 55 is the best all around car out there imo. That's why I picke done up. It's quick, comfortable, fun....with 4 doors and the look is timeless. I don't necessary agree with the seats being the most comfortable but its pretty good.

Darn, I thought I had posted it in the AMG forum! I'll get on that, thanks.

I loved driving this car, even if I only had a few hours with it. I think if I can grow the channel to produce some more subscribers/views I can afford to pick up a little project, I'm looking at either an E55 or a CL55. We'll see!
