E55 or S55?
i just got done reading all of the posts in this thread.
one thing i noticed is that the originator of the thread
has yet to post again.
i owned an 02 S55 after my 00 E430.
for me at the time..single mid 30's the
S just became too big...wrong fit.
my mother purchased an 03 E500 and
it is a beautiful car...kind of a mini S but
the back sit has no leg room at all. even
the width of the vehicle disappoints me also.
with two people in the front sit i feel
like my space is being invaded. so it
depends what your looking for and how
you would use each vehicle. if you carry
people more frequently and like more
shoulder room get the S. if these on not
issues get the E.
as for the "accord" comments. the only
similar aspects between the E and the accord
is the interior space. both have pretty much
the same cubic feet with the E having only
slightly more.
Played out?.......damn where you live it must be bink bink.....
When I come to your city I will flag down for your E55 class taxi......... :p Look like I get to sit in a one and only E55 taxi in your city...... 

....When I head down to STL I will flag down for your AMG taxi.......I don't want a ride back in a Viper cause I afraid I won't make the flight on time.... :p ..Use to own that piece of crap and that crap broke down on me 787miles...
.....I got all my money back and went out and buy a horse with the yellow background..... :p ..Again you are very funny.......old and played out? Before you say anything go and study your MB history.....
....MB built about 9,000 to 12,000 SL per year......MB built about 100,000+ E class per year..........now which one is played out...
..old? yeah my car is old........As the years past by the SL become "CLASSICS" I hate to say this as for the E class it will never become classics.......it will become a piece of junk as year past by.........If you ever look at MB history.......No E class become "classics".Don't get me wrong here.......E class is a fine car....

From the looks of the pathetic sig you are a brabus owner for sure. "so everyone can see me" --- not sure about you but I own cars to drive not be seen in. That about sums you up... attention *****. Brabus = looks... not speed.
S55, E55 both are more rare than a V8 R129... who cares if Brabus put a 40k motor in your car... its still slower than an amg motor with the same displacement. Oh well....
And a few more smilies… I don’t think im talking to a 12 year old quite yet. Remember we are here to use words not animated happy faces.
.....I got all my money back and went out and buy a horse with the yellow backgroundI think most people would agree that a classic Mercedes would be along the lines of the 300 SL (W 198) Gullwing/Roadster, not an everyday R129. And if you think your R129 looks better then my W211 E55, I'm afraid you're in the minority.

His signature says "LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME, I invested a stupid amount of money into my old R129 Classic POS." I vote this guy to have lamest signature in MBWorld history!

goddamn it, i didn't want to say it but i am forced now: why get S-class? Lincoln Towncar has plenty of room!!!
forgive me s-class owners. i had to say it.
The Best of Mercedes & AMG

P.S. Mr. MBAMGPWR you post::lol:, A horse with yellow background? What is that? Is it "bink bink" or "bring bring"? I'm interested to see some pics of your yellow car, but I'm sure you'll think up some excuse.
Again Mr. MBAMGPWR you make me laugh.......You know what instead of showing you the pictures of the car......known you will say it somebody else car or I lie......I have you call Ferrari of Beverly Hills....ask for James Del Pozzo (310) 275-4400.....tell him you want to know if SL Brabus bought a red F575M from him.......You want to know what a horse with a yellow background is.........

Obviously, based on 04E55 AMG's last post....we have understood each other and made amends. AGAIN...THIS IS AN INFORMATIONAL FORUM! AND I had no intentions of offending him and others in the first place. Thank God people like wiz357 had enough decency to disregard the non-sense and just post his opinion of whether he/she liked the E55 or S55.
I would assume that people that can afford these types of vehicles are obviously well educated people! From reading this forum...I don't know anymore!
Some of you act like you came straight out of the ghetto!
What value did you people bring to this thread (MrAMG, adx, termigni) by continuing on with my "honda accord" scenario???
Especially MrAMG and adx, you people brought NO value to this thread at all, but trying to add more lighter fluid to the fire that has been long put out!!! READ 04E55 AMG's last comments! I thought it was very noble of him! AND THANK GOD HE'S EDUCATED ENOUGH TO READ BETWEEN THE LINES TO KNOW WHERE I WAS COMING FROM.
I WILL NOT APOLOGIZE FOR MY COMMENTS....I AM ENTITLED TO MY OPINIONS!
AH....THERE IS A THING CALLED FREEDOM OF SPEECH...DUH!
I was not comparing engine size, etc...etc....
As I was in the process of purchasing my 2nd S55 (previously owning an '02), my wife asked me to consider an E55....obviously because of size differences...she felt that it would be more managable to drive for her as oppose to a larger vehicle.
The first thing I did in my evaluation was to sit in the back of it because I feel (my opinion again people!) that a passenger vehicle should be just as comfortable and roomy as the front. Also....there are times when I sit in the back to do work while my wife shops or whatever.
The space was quite tight like a honda accord (in my opinion!)
I looked at the back of the vehicle...that's just what it reminded me of....PERIOD!
AGAIN LIKE IT OR NOT....THAT'S JUST WHAT IT REMINDED ME OF....AND THAT WAS THE HONEST TRUTH! PERIOD!!!!!!
IF YOU GUYS HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT....TOO BAD!!!!
THE S CLASS MAY REMIND YOU OF A YUGO!!! IF THAT'S YOUR HONEST OPINION....I CAN RESPECT THAT!!!
GIVE ME A FREAKIN BREAK PEOPLE!!!
BY the way....there's nothing wrong with a Honda Accord! They are nice vehicles too. Perhaps some of you have your noses so high up in the air....you guys probably never sat in one!
Is S55 like a honda accord too per termigni? SURE....WHY NOT!!!
I REALLY DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT PEOPLE THINK ....I HAVE THE CAPACITY TO DO AND BUY WHATEVER I WANT!
I EVEN COMPARED MY FERRARI F355 SPIDER TO CRAP!
NOW PEOPLE.....GET A LIFE.....FOCUS ON THE THREAD...NOT THE PEOPLE!
IF YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY....STOP POSTING CRAP! IF IT REALLY MAKES YOU FEEL SUPERIOR TO CONTINUE POSTING ATTACKING COMMENTS.......POSTING CHILDISH LOONY CHARACTERS....WHATEVER.....GO RIGHT AHEAD BROTHER! DO WHAT YOU DO BEST!
I'M SURE SOME OF US READ THESE THREADS FOR OPINIONS AND INFORMATION.....NOT CRAP!
BY THE WAY termigni...THANKS FOR THE COMPLIMENT! AT LEAST YOU DID SAY SOMETHING NICE!
04E55 AMG - WAY TO GO! MY ORDER IS FOR A SPIDER TOO...WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY....AND YES...MY WIFE SAYS THE SAME THING TO ME ABOUT SPENDING TOO MUCH MONEY ON CARS. THE FLIP SIDE IS....SHE DOESN'T HOLD ME BACK CAUSE SHE KNOWS I WORK HARD....AND THEREFORE....MUST PLAY HARD. TAKE CARE!
FOR THE REST OF YOU TROUBLE MAKERS.....HAVE A NICE LIFE!
You input that "E is like an accord is a valauble information?!?!"
Which is by the way a very stupid and offending comment!

..I raced a E 6.1L brabus car in my C32 (when I had one) and the C32 won. Go figure that the 400+ hp brabus car could not keep up with a stock C32. Oh well I think we all know who got shafted when they purchased their car.
But the best touch on the R129 was the plastic covers over the seats. I would rather sit on leather but again that is just me.
P.S. If you sig was not lame why did you change it?

Mr.BrabusS55AMG read all the posts before you say something……..most of the posts I always joking…….Again yeah nobody care what I have…and I don‘t care too because that not the only car I have….but if nobody care then why do you read what I have to say and care so much…….look who bragging saying he got SL65 in order…….I will not say until I got the car……..If I bragging I lists all the cars that I drive just like you…….which I don’t……..and what that chrome AMG dubs………I though you drive a Brabus car.......not a Chrome AMG dubs car......... :p
As for downgrading cars I have several cars from many different price ranges. I don't bother listing things all over the place because I think that's tacky. No one needs to know what I drive unless I feel like telling him or her.
I only attack you Brabus because your sig is pompous and you parade yourself around like a Mercedes Benz God. You constantly insult board members by telling them you have a brabus while they do not or by saying go buy a real car like a brabus. When I see people act like children I tend to tell them the reality of the situation. So the fact remains that while the Brabus 1991 R129 is a great car, any AMG made after 2003 is faster than your car and they are more rare. In addition AMG cars will hold their value longer and last longer than a Brabus car so in the end I would rather spend 120k for a S55k then 160k for a Brabus CLS500 6.1L.
On a side note I have a quick question for you Brabus. I was at the AMG meet last weekend and I am not sure if we met. I like having a face to go with people on MBworld.org so what were you wearing that day. Have any photos of yourself with your car that day or a photo of just yourself? Thanks!
