E500 Anybody bother with engine mods on these things?
 
That about says it. I'm used to driving an AMG, just a few more beans would be much appreciated in this thing.

With MB it is very easy.
1. sell E500
2. buy E55
3. ENJOY

Ha Ha, that would certainly do the trick. This was my practical choice for a winter car. AWD, easy on the wallet, cheap to maintain (comparatively) and it's loaded with all the same features... except one, it's a little light on go. It isn't really slow, but another 50hp would really help.

I was wondering the same. Has anyone here played around with their E500?

Some people do it

At $15k I rather just sell the E500 and get an E55.

Wow, I was thinking more like throttle body and a tune.

Just don't do it, for a naturally aspirated engine there's not much you can do. I bought a eurocharged tune for my 550 for $400 a long time back, can't even tell the difference anymore. The only mods for our cars are really only cosmetic upgrades.
