2004 E500 w/ AMG Sport Package
![Smile](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon7.gif)
After 8 months of waiting. yes 8 months. i finally picked up my E500 with AMG Sports package. My dealer says its the first one in Florida.
I went crazy with my order
it has
Active Ventilated Front Seats
Driving Dynamic Front Seats
Headlamp Washing System
Curve Sensing Bi-Xenon Headlamps
CD Changer & harmon kardon Sound Sys
AMG Sport Package
Ski Sack w/Trunk Pass Thru
Split Fold Down Rear Seat
COMAND System w/DVD Navi
Heated Steering Wheel
Panorama Sunroof
Power Rear-Window Sunshade
Solar Panel
Tire-Pressure Monitoring System
Wood/Leather Steering Wheel
a whopping 73,500 sticker price that was all worth it
i feel good....
i do have a few questions
Can i add the Electronic Trunk Closer post production? my dealership says no.
Is it me or do the drive dynamic seats have a mind of their own.
if i add the k40 radar will it affect my warranty?

Yes, please send some fotos NOW!!! Especially the rear, curious to see those AMG exhaust since the AMG sports package is not the same exact look as the AMG itself, i.e dual exhaust on both sides, as opposed to one on each side. Also show us the tires and wheels. Did the birds eye wood trim come with the AMG because I noticed you didn't order appearance package? Tulations!!!

That car has Massacusetts plates, not Florida.
Nice look on the quad exhaust, though!
With that much dough invested in the car, I would've just gone for the E55 at that point.

I ordered a similar one in November. It is on its way across the Atlantic now. Does your car have the dual exhaust tips on each side, or the single tips shown in the E brochure?

AMG+4Matic isn't available because staggered wheels and tires don't work well with center differentials... since the tires aren't exactly the same height.
Brybenz, did you remove the AMG badge from the trunk? All the non-AMG benzes with the AMG appearance package that I've seen have had the badge. Maybe it's not included in 2004 models.

pics?
I haven't seen the rules, but I have seen 640 x 480 pixel photos with file size of 28K. I am sure there are larger ones too, but this size should be suitable for the purpose.

2004 E500 AMG Sport and 2020 GLC300
My E500 gets to the Port of Jacksonville next Wednesday. From what I have seen on these forums, I will check it very closely for things like you found.
When I got my E320, I found a problem with it that the VPC and the dealer had not found (driver's side mirror position not retained in memory). It took them a couple of weeks to finally find and correct the problem (broken wire in console). Other than a few problems I have had after that, the car has been great and a real pleasure to drive. Hopefully the new one will be even better.
Thanks for the input. I was really wondering about the exhaust with the AMG package after the picture post, which clearly could not be the real AMG trim package since they only started building cars with this package on April 1. Hmm, wonder if that date has the same significance in Germany?
Keep trying on the picture post. I will post ones of my car when I get it.

Hi:
That looks sweet. Post more pics please especially from left/right side and front. I would love to see it. Join yahoo, you can host your pics there for free!
Yeah I agree that E55 with well equipped option can go up to $90k++. Too rich for my blood. I know that E55 is fast and it's the beast. But who's gonna ride that fast? How often? IMO E500 is enough for me 5.0L + V8 Engine.
