According to our Russian friends VIN WDB2208751A000003 checks out as an S500.

The only AMG about is are the badges so it seems...

That's funny, I e-mailed him about ten minutes before this thread began and told the seller if he needed a little MB education, to let me know.

2003 S55 AMG
What I find the worst is that you can pick up a used 2003 S55 AMG with a 493 horse Kompressor engine for about $65K-$70K. Take it to a custom limo shop and have it chopped and stretched for $50K-$75K. Grand total of about $115-$145K.

Drop about $100K off the price and maybe you can actually sell the car.
