Too many to list but include pre merger amg cars plus several Porsche’s
Hello everyone .

Mercedes nut here in Vancouver bc . I have two pre merger amg cars that I think are quite rare . I have struggled over the years to find true production numbers for them as all the info I find are USA e55’s . Both are 1997 cars . My driver is a E50 sedan in brilliant silver , my prized possession is a E60 wagon also silver . I have some rare 560sec’s . They all are the hard to find ece822 option cars . 5 in total . Also a low grill 250se and a few others . I hope to be able to learn and possibly share some info I have learned .

so happy to be here

Thanks for the welcoming

Wondering if there’s anyone out there that can help with world wide amg production numbers for 1997-1998 amg models .

from what I have heard lol unknown if true or not is they made 2870 E50’s . 200 e50’s got ungraded to e60’s . 73 of the e60 upgrades wer wagons ....... also that all models were built in 1997 then sold as 97-98 models . Got some light to shine on any of this info ?

thoughts?

thanks in advance
Kris

Doing a double take on your nice E60T, if my memory still serves me well - this must be the same one that was FS a few years back, down in NWestminster, 2013, I believe?

some other info in my bookmarks - https://mbworld.org/forums/mercedes-...6-amg-e60.html


EDIT:
Your E60T, the 0-300 cluster too. nice.

Thanks so much for ur reply . Yes this is the same car although I have sorted the correct Parts as have been pointed out on this car before .... 18” staggered monobloks replaced the r129 wheels and factory amg exhaust replaced the Japanese aftermarket titanium exhaust . Rebadged the car properly and got an original M119 amg engine cover . Should be considered fault free to the perfectionists out there . I’m a bit of a purist at heart . Have 3 1997 amg models as of right now Although still looking for a clean E60 sedan and a E55 sedan /wagon to round out the collection . Although honestly running out of space lmao . I’m in Vancouver and happy to meet cars and coffee type thing with anyone of them

1997C36
1997 E50
1997 E60T
