Mileage record? Interesting sale...

Didn't know if any of you had seen this, but thought you'd appreciate...

278K. Looks like it's held up pretty well. Not sure what the snakeskin leather is all about. Bet someone mechanically versed could low ball them and have a nice 400K E55 on their hands...

True testament to the last of the best AMG hand-built engines, that is it!

AMG engines past this are not the same.

As long as the car hasn't been beatin on. There no reason an NA amg engine cant out mile a 320 or 430. Think about how many others have a 100k more on the same engine.

Mine has gone from 100K to 150K miles in 3 years without any work under the hood except for CPS . But I am sure that is due to PO getting all maintanence done before I purchased it .
Im amazed that car has all those miles and no rust anywhere whatsoever
