Hello all @ W221. Just say good bye my 2004 S430 serving me 149K mikes traded in for this 2010 S550 4Matic with 39k miles. Pics are comming later.
It's one owner and dealer servicing all it's life and it's looking good and no rust spot anywhere.
Any advices for the M273? TIA

You scored a great deal and car , many owners would dream to pick up a low mileage car like that
Congrats , happy driving
M273 is a non turbo engine, for some crowd it's a better choice over M278 due to less complexity but tuning is limited over M278 if you like

Happy cruising!!!

E38 740iL has been dead with engine problem and my brother's using it for parts and keeping it on our driveway.
I used to own an E38 2000 750iL... But my brother has it now. I loved that V12 and very low mile 115K when my brother took over couple years ago.

Nice ride ! I love the Bruno Sacco-penned lines of the W221 body and you cannot go wrong with the M273. It's a gem of a motor.

e38 haters are way off base. THIS was the top dog in Luxury rides back in the day if you cared about driving dynamics. I miss mine very much to this day, although it was not exactly a paradigm of reliability.
