Passenger headlight looks out of alignment, bit of a gap. Any accidents?

no accidents the passenger headlight is newer, was replaced under warranty when the active motor failed - maybe just a shadow or something in the pic...?
I have a carfax as well

I think he actually meant the drivers side and it’s the small circle light (city light) not the entire headlamp. It’s sagging just a little. Might just need to be tightened or adjusted. The gap is around the top where it meets the hood. Beautiful car though and the price is amazing! I can’t believe how good a deal you can get on one of these now! GLWS

I'm interested, but have few questions:

1) Ho loud is the car after exhaust mods including deleted resonator etc? Can you drive it for a an hour or two hours or it's more likely a short distance car now? I'm asking, because I'm getting tired of driving a car with loud exhaust for more than an hour.
2) Please could you post few links to your recent car videos if you have it? Like walkarounds etc. I just checked http://e55-amg.blogspot.com, but there is nothing recent there.
3) Please could you do some additional pics of interior? I'd like to see wear of seats and overall condition of front panels, buttons etc.
4) When was ABC serviced/repaired/etc last time?
5) Anything that needs to be replaced soon?
6) Would you mind to do PPI at a local MB dealer?
7) Can you post your zip? I'd like to estimate how far it is from a nearest airport.

Thanks in advance.

The E55 doesn’t offer ABC, it’s a much less complex airmatic suspension.

Beautiful car and price. Headlight is actually not that hard to adjust, common with most mercedes from these years.

the car is a bit more grumbly... but ZERO drone - not loud at all IMHO, noticeable but my aging ears couldn't take loud either We take it on 4-6 hour trips - no issues...

4) When was ABC serviced/repaired/etc last time? no ABC
5) Anything that needs to be replaced soon? the keyless shifter knob if it bugs you - all maintenance is good as per MBZ recommendations, oil has 9,500 to go
6) Would you mind to do PPI at a local MB dealer? no problem
7) Can you post your zip? I'd like to estimate how far it is from a nearest airport. SMF

Thanks in advance.

Its still running stock airmatic? If yes, have you had any issues and have you replaced any suspension parts? Any oil or fluid leaks.
Any complaints in regard to the AC system?

Two weeks are two weeks. Again, I may fly by around the end of next week. Just can't do it earlier due to work.
Also I'll need to arrange PPI and I learned it before that MB dealers are usually pretty booked..

^ I guess it's because this is late 2014 model which why it's called MY2015.

Alright, if you have an agreement I'll pass on it.

i would not think something built in July of 2004 was a late build date making it an 05 - maybe i can find a my07 E55,, nice car either way though - enjoy
