I had a 97 E420 Sport. I just traded it in and picked up a new E55. Two totally different cars. I am speechless.

what are the specs of an E420?

how much hp and torque?

and congrats on the trade! i wish i could trade mine too...........

and any pics?

 

I think the 97 E420 had 275 hp and 291 lbs of torque. No pics yet, will take some this weekend.

 

BenH,

Don't be too speechless you will have to tell us about it. Welcome to the E55 club.

Here is your first E55 horsepower upgrade. Open your owners manual to page 316 in the Technical Section. You have just gained 6HP - from 349 to 355. And that is a SAE rating and not the Euro DIN rating of 354 which equals 349 SAE.

Congrats! Can you post some pics? Color combo? Options? Buy or Lease?

Thanks!

 

JamE55,

I will post pics this weekend. I got brillant silver/charcol, just the cd changer ,and I bought it.

 

i am happy with my 320, but i always wonder how happier i would be with the beast itself. but until that day, i guess i can only wonder and envious.

congrats
