My first AMG and could not be happier - got a great deal and plan to refinish both bumpers and the mono blocks. Looking forward to daily driving the car and absolutely blown away by the car so far. Has every option available and car phone still makes calls. My father has a w208 C63 & a GTS, and this car keeps up quite well for the price.
Do they stil sell OEM floor mats? Also, ay mechanic recommendations in Seattle. Thanks!
The only thing you are missing are the folding mirrors.
You can retrofit but it's a little fiddly.
Not many E55 had park sensors fitted from factory.
Your car with sensors makes it more exclusive over lesser optioned cars.
Has every option available and car phone still makes calls.
Nice rare find. This had an analog Motorola flip phone option. How you making calls in the digital era? Doe it have the Bluetooth retrofit in the center console?
Congrats... Beautiful car! You'll have to hunt to fins OEM floor mats with the red. Looks to have an aftermarket shift knob and surround on it that I would swap out, but otherwise pretty clean and a uniquely optioned E55. I'm jealous of the Comand Nav and park sensor options. Do you mind mentioning the mileage and what you paid? I understand if you do, just curious what the market is doing as I'm expecting the prices to start climbing on these.
Thank you! I asked the previous owner ( who was very knowledgeable and through going through the car with me) if those both were original and to my surprise he said the trim was factory. I had a hunch they are not and I think they’re just a cover I now want to try to take off.
The mileage at purchase was 176k. Well documented and a small list of maitnabce needed and quoted by mercedes of lynnwood. The car has an incredible amount of door dings and the front bumper is flaking, luckily I work at the family body shop so I will take care of it in some time. Mechanically it is nearly flawless as I can tell besides an inoperable parking brake. PO removed the cats I believe, but besides that stock with pretty new Michelin sport tires.
Plans are to refinish both bumpers and refinish the paint and chrome on the wheels. Also possibly lower the front just a touch.
Purchase price, and in my option a great deal, of $4,200. I immediately took it on a road trip to Oregon and had no problems at all. I had a w202 c230 that I sold for $2,000. Just happy to have an AMG. I don’t drive far to work each day so it’s been my daily driver since and really enjoying the car

It sounds like you got a great deal on a rare color combo and nicely optioned E55. I wish mine had the Comand Nav and parking sensors.

Congrats.
I've been searching endlessly for a tectite grey.
