FS SOCAL: 2004 E55 AMG - Silver, Well Kept, All Original, 95k miles INSPECTED PPI


5/25: Sold!

5/17 UPDATE: PPI Inspection was completed today @ Mercedes Service Center - Glendale, CA.
I have the Service Adviser contact information for serious buyers and he will confirm condition and that
it is in excellent condition.

Asking $18,500

New financial plans and for the sake of being sensible I am forced to sell my E55. I spent close to a year
looking for a well kept, unmodified E55 with ALL records from when it was new. My E55 was purchased from
the original owner (doctor) who took excellent care of the car, and kept all records up to date including any
recalls / warranty work. Will post more details soon including sticker,etc.

Private Party sale
Miles: 95,655
Year: 2004 E55 AMG
Completely Original
0 Modifications - Amazing car as is.


Something to note when comparing mileage to price / condition and shopping for E55's


The following was completed under warranty within the last 10K miles:


- Brand New OEM SBC (Brake system) replaced ($4,000 worth of warranty Service @ MBZ)
- New OEM motor mounts
- New OEM Tie rods (no squeaking at all!)
- New OEM Valve cover gaskets replaced at regular interval

Also new Ventus V12 Tires were installed less then 4K miles ago.

$18,500

Phone: (323) 455-4060
Location: Los Angeles, CA 90039
Available anytime to view!

Iphone shots today 5/20



Suspension on LOW



Suspension on HIGH



REAR:






Thanks [180] for your post:

""I looked at this car last night, I drove 100+ miles to go look at it - went through it inside and out, the car is clean, everything is stock as it came from the factory, and the PPI from Calstar Mercedes shows nothing unusual (there were a few minor things you'd expect for an 8 year old car but nothing major). Even all the electrics work - navi, memory seats, rear sunshade, rear vents, everything. Carfax shows it as a 2 owner California car.""

5/17 UPDATE: PPI Inspection was completed today @ Mercedes Service Center - Glendale, CA.

Tempting. Have any records of the Fuel Pumps & Sender being replaced? Also, can you be more specific as to what parts of the suspension were maintained? Would also be curious to see if the transmission was ever serviced. All of this would probably help with the sale!

Fuel Pump / Sending Unit was changed per recall before purchased it and the dealer provided the MBZ service record for it. I will scan (hiding original owner info) and post them to help - everything is in storage right now but I should have by tomorrow.

I looked at this car last night, I drove 100+ miles to go look at it - went through it inside and out, the car is clean, everything is stock as it came from the factory, and the PPI from Calstar Mercedes shows nothing unusual (there were a few minor things you'd expect for an 8 year old car but nothing major). Even all the electrics work - navi, memory seats, rear sunshade, rear vents, everything. Carfax shows it as a 2 owner California car.

From my research the big ticket items on the E55 are the SBC (already replaced on this car) and airmatic (working fine on this car but if you need replacement shocks are $500/ea from Arnott, can be DIY replaced and theres quite a bit of info in the E55 forums). Also I'd do a transmission fluid change soon as preventative maintenance but that's also an easy DIY job.


I already made an offer to the seller but he needs it sold today and I'd have to wait for my bank to process a loan which can't be done that quickly.

I'm really hoping someone from MBWorld who appreciates these cars has the cash to pick it up and keeps it in original condition, this is really as good as advertised and it's rare to find an E55 that's in this good of a condition and at this price.

So you drove an hour to look at a car that was perfect and what you wanted but didnt buy it because you dont have the funds!

To the OP-
Are those pics you took or are they pics from the dealer when you bought it a while back?

Yes those are dealer pics - but in Today we are taking high res photos. The
Car has not improved.

I have more time to show the car now.

The buyer who saw it really liked the car - it was as described. His offer was still less then asking and that had an effect on things.

Well IMO he wasted your time and his time. For the price, he should have jumped on it. Maybe he should be looking for a C class. Good luck!
