'05 E55 Estate
FS: '05 E55 AMG wagon, rare, tasteful mods, Vossen OH KY

Not sure why my old thread was closed, but here it is again......'er still......just in time for Christmas! It's been maybe 200 miles in the last several months, so everything is literally the same, I kinda just parked it when I put it up for sale and the wife got a new car.

Guys, up for sale is my 2005 E55 Wagon. I purchased it approx 2 years ago, and in that time I've only put 15,000mi on her. I purchased it from another member here who promptly replaced it with an E63 wagon. It has had extensive maintenance done prior to the mods and has been very reliable for me, needing nothing other than routine maintenance. If you are reading this ad, you know the specs, but it's so unique it bears repeating.....only 193 E55 wagons in the U.S. (129 in 2005) It has an E63 front end, and currently a stock grill on it, (I have the black grill as well that you may see if you google the vossen photoshoot)

Full disclosure: The front end and hood have some rock chips, the car has a lot of highway miles (good for the drivetrain, bad for the paint) But overall it looks great and the paint shines well, no dents, no rust. It truly does get a lot of compliments.

The check engine light comes on from time to time, it's always an Idle air code. This is common with the larger throttle body, it can be eliminated if you speed up the idle (then the ECU sees the throttle open the proper amount that it's looking for) but I prefer the stock idle. I clear the code with my smart phone and an OBDII wifi dongle (my wife even does it if she is driving)

The rear air springs will sag after several days of sitting (the car is not daily driven) They always pump right up and there are no airmatic codes. (another common problem, and not worth replacing if they pump up normally and have no codes, just a leaky check valve)

Email me for hi-res pics.

Northern Kentucky (Cincinnati) Area,
The car was originally from CA, and then FL, I have not driven it snow in the 2 years I've had it in this area.
