Start any sentence with "Arguably" and you instantly sound rediculous.

It could have also said "The most common combination...." But that wouldn't be arguable...

Just today I was stopped in my garage by an older gentleman in an ML430. He couldn't believe I had a real E55 Wagon, he didn't think they even made those. Kept asking me why I needed so much power. I told him drive one and you'll know instantly

De Laveaga Motors is proud to present this ultra rare 2005 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG Wagon as our newest piece of inventory! Limited to just 193 units, the E55 AMG Wagon offers a list of criteria that is not matched by any other car on the market. Some of those specifications include the same 0-to-60 mph acceleration as a Porsche Carrera S, the quarter mile time of a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, the 0-to-150 mph time of a Chevrolet Corvette Z51, and not to mention the seating for 7 passengers; making these numbers in 2005 very impressive! This E55 AMG Wagon has been driven just 132,881 miles by its single California owner. It is finished in the desirable Flint Gray over Charcoal Leather w/ Burl Walnut trim. Powered by AMG's legendary 5.5L V8 Kompressor engine, the E55 AMG Wagon delivers a stunning 469 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. It comes hard loaded with numerous options including Premium Package (Heated/Cooled Drive Dynamic Front Seats, COMAND Navigation, 6-Disc CD Changer) $3,390, Lighting Package (Bi-Xenon Active Lights, Headlamp Washing System) $1,200, Third Row Seating $995, Keyless-Go $1,060, Burl Walnut $270, for a total MSRP of $92,913. Not only is this E55 Wagon cosmetically flawless, it just underwent a major service here at our state of the art service center including a set of four brand new Michelin tires! This is a rare opportunity to own a thrilling driver and a vehicle that is already a collectible! Feel free to give us a call today with any questions you may have or to schedule a time to view this E55 Wagon. We look forward to hearing from you!

2006 E55 AMG wagon!
I (we) got our new (to us) wagon home! I can honestly say I haven't been this excited about a car in a long time! So far the import experience hasn't been too bad either. (We are in Vancouver) We bought that White 2006 E55 AMG wagon from the MB dealer in Seattle. The experience was overall very good. We are happy with the price we agreed to and more importantly the list of repairs that we requested be done were taken care of in a timely manner. Thanks goes to Derek Bondo, the salesman who contacted me abut the car. The only problem we have now is that we only got 1!

Actually, last night the bidding remained quite active well above $42,500 before the buyer took advantage of the "Buy it Now" option. And, though I hear ya on the zero feedback, the buyer seems legit.

i find the discussions around "price" a bit rude and usually ignore them...in some places talk about money, politics and religion is less liberal than in the US and probably serves them well.

Hey Mark, glad to hear that you and Jennifer got it home safe and sound--so happy to see the wagon go to a true enthusiast home (although who would buy one of these wagons if they didn't love horsepower and tire smoke?). You guys were a pleasure to work with and I wish you many many happy miles! Cheers!

Spotted this 2005 E55 in LA: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv...597077886.html

Black on black, 43k miles, $35k. I'm looking for something newer, unfortunately.
