That's insane for such a great car. I drove the new c63 amg recently and it felt about the same as the 210 e55 performance-wise. For 5x less cost, that e55 is a steal!

Kinda scares me how much my 2002 with only 26k on it is worth.

E36 AMG W210 M104 engine & C280 sport AMG extras W202
w210 amg cheap cars!

thats nothing! there going as low as £3500 here in the UK.

i would like to have an e55 w210 but my w210 amg e36 is a lot more rare and as got more power per cylinder than the 5.5 v8

i dont think you had the E36 there! its the baby 3.6 litre m104 engine. the car looks exactly the same as the e55 and was made in 1996 before the mercedes / amg take over!!

i paid an astonishing £1250 for it wit the head gasket gone! its all done now and is still a rather fast car even though a lot less power than the e55 i seen figures for 286bhp and im looking to put a bigger manifold on it to push it to 330bhp. any one knows where i can get a bigger exhaust manifold for this m104 stright six?

Well when I bought the car I did a major tune up, and have done the tranny fluid and filter, the diff, trans connection seal was leaking, valve cover gasket was leaking, pads and rotors all around x2, MAF x2 so far, the pedal sensor broke (500 from the dealer), suspension was replaced and front was redone ( struts, shocks, lower control arms, lower ball joints, tie rods and bushings), tires x2 sets, HID bulbs, guibos and some random hoses that were old and rotted. and service a once and service b once. and motor mounts and tranny mounts. and thats everything i think.

tell them to raise their price!

lol....if I decide not to buy, then I'll be sure to tell them to rais their price.

k..well so far with the last 10k miles, I had ball joints and the brake sensor replaced. Oh and service B, service A due in 900 miles. Both were done under warranty, so have no idea how much it would of cost.

and did rear pads with porterfield, front is due now.

here's one in No. California for $10,988

They don't state the mileage but it appears to be a California car in decent shape except for the yellowed headlights.
