E55 AMG
2004 E55

I've decided to sell my E55. This car was too easy of a project for me, I've achieved my goals with little effort. I need something to keep me busy and this car does not. It's just a rock solid fast car, get in and go. It's time for me to move on.

The car has 64,100 miles on it. The paint has a few small chips on the front bumper, nothing out of the ordinary though. Interior is perfect. This car has only standard options. There's no trunk closer, multi disc cd, dynamic/vented seats, pano, window shades, navigation or any other non essential equipment. I'm guessing its a base model E55?
The only issue I've had with the car was the front driver's side strut blowing out. Replaced with a remanufactured one from Arnott.

I've done the following modifications:

180mm ASP crank pulley
PLM Heatexchanger
Eurocharged Long Tube headers
3" Stainless mandrel bent exhaust
Dyno tuned by Jerry from Eurocharged 525 rwhp 560 ft lbs. of torque on a very safe tune.

The car ran a best of 11.34 @ 121 with a 1.59 60'.


The car has brand new Gunmetal Forgestar F14's with new 275/35 Falken 452 tires on the rear. Front tires have about 75% tread left.

Asking $29k for the car including the stock wheels (not in very good condition, curb rash and chipped) and all the stock parts.
PM me or email fast231v6@yahoo.com
The car is located in southern Louisiana near New Orleans. I can take as many pics as you like, just ask.

I understand that. I'm not dying to get rid of it. I am flexible on the price though.

Seems like nobody here wants an E55 with proven power?
Before it goes on eBay, make me an offer. You may be surprised what I'll take for it.

Didn't sell on ebay. New price.......just make an offer.

I really can't believe nobody wants a super clean fast E55. Yet they'll buy a pos higher milage car then modify it. This one is done and proven! Oh well looks like it may just rot in the garage.

Hate to see such a nice vehicle go, looks like a real nice setup you've got. Going to an E63? That's the only thing that could get me out of my 55.

If I sell it I'll be replacing it with a C6 Z06.

The wheels go with the car. Sorry guys, not taking them off.
