2004 E55
2004 E55 w/ warranty until 2015

2004 Mercedes Benz E55 AMG (w211)

Specs and Details:

Mileage -- 105,000 miles
Warranty -- Chrysler Service Contract (Max Care Warranty) good until 150,000 miles or January 2015. For those who don’t know, this is widely considered the best bumper-to-bumper exclusionary policy for an AMG and Chrysler is no longer selling new policies.
Color -- Brilliant Silver Exterior/Charcoal Interior
Options -- Has factory navigation and I added the OEM bi-xenon headlights. Otherwise, it does not have any other options.
Location -- Irvine, CA on weekdays; Manhattan Beach, CA on weekends
Price -- $23,499

History:

I bought the car in November 2007 from Fletcher Jones Newport Beach, CA, as a CPO (the car had 50,000 miles on it when I purchased it). All service and warranty work was done at Fletcher Jones since production and I have all records since my date of purchase. The car has always been under warranty since production. All services are up to date (including 100k mile service with new spark plugs; rotors/pads replaced a few months ago) and Service C and Transmission Service were just done last week. Tires have 70% tread remaining (front and back). It has never been performance modified (the engine is and always has been bone stock), never tracked, never raced, etc. Since knowing who you’re buying from is critical to knowing what you’re buying, I’m happy to provide any potential buyer with personal details about myself as well as the prior owner. No accidents. I meticulously maintain my cars and this car is extremely clean inside and out. I can count on my hands the number of times anyone has sat in the backseat (it looks new) and I don't often have passengers (I used the car as my daily commuter for work). I can email more pics and a very recent Carfax on request and I welcome serious buyers to come see it in person to appreciate the condition it's in.

Added Upgrades and Notable Warranty Work:

• OEM bi-xenon headlights
• OEM pedal set
• OEM CLS AMG 18 inch wheels (the E63 style but more concave)
• OEM Euro Convex side-view mirrors
• OEM E63 LED Taillights
• OEM E63 Trunk Finisher
• OEM E63 Trunk Lip Spoiler
• OEM all-weather rubber mats
• MP Design Leather/Wood Steering Wheel with retro-fitted E63 paddle shifters
• Euro bumper strips
• STAR lowered – moderately (only ¾ of an inch front and ½ of an inch rear)
• Supercharger clutch pack was updated under warranty approx. 1 year ago
• IC pump was replaced under warranty approx. 1 year ago
• LED license plates lights and other small things I’m sure I’m forgetting

I've updated the "History" section to state that the car hasn't been in any accidents and that I have a very recent Carfax that I can send to serious buyers on request.

Thanks for the support and feedback fellas. I've responded to all inquiries. As of now I have just one appointment to check it out, so again, if you're in the market for this car and you're local, I assure you it's worth your time to come see and drive this car. From the way it looks and drives you'll know just how babied this car has been.

Here are a few interior pics I had handy. I will have to take pics of the seats, dash and steering wheel later today. Other than driver's seat bolster wear (which will be included in the pics I upload later today), the interior is pristine. It has the dark wood (with matching wood in the steering wheel). There are no scratches, tears or anything of the sort. Also, I don't have a shot of the car from the side on flat ground, specifically, but I can take one with my phone later today and send it to you. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks for the interest.

I understand. I'll send you the pics tonight. The stance is perfect IMHO. In doing the STAR lowering I was looking to acheive just the right stance/rake while (i) preserving as much of the ride comfort as possible and (ii) minimizing any additional negative camber because I didn't want to deal with excessive tire wear. It's a very subtle difference but to me aesthetically it's a huge improvement.

Here are the additional pics I took with my phone to show the stance/rake of the car on level ground.

And here are the additional interior pics I took with my phone.

Please note the driver's side lower seat bolster wear. This is practically the only sign of real wear in the interior of the car...I am **** about getting in and out of my cars and I think it's really helped preserve the driver's seat.

Please also note that the passenger seat shows very little wear and the rear seat could pass for being brand new.

Car comes with like new OEM weather-proof mats (6mths old) and like new OEM AMG charcoal carpet mats (used them for approx. 4 mths before replacing them with the weather-proof mats).

Please let me know if anyone would like to see additional pics.

Thanks. I'll be sure to drive it to work on Friday in case you want to stop by and check it out. I looked seriously at the S55 when I bought my E. I absolutely love the S but the E fit my needs better at the time. Can't go wrong either way.
