E55 Wagon

Was picking up my daughter today and one of the parents was driving an E55 Wagon. We talked briefly, I did not know this model was available stateside. He said just cam out, still had the dealer logo instead of the plates.

I can not find this model on the MB website. Does this car really exist, and how can I find out more and how much?

Yep, they are at the dealers. There is one in Scottsdale at Schumacher.

Yes, it exists. Special order, sort of, although it's available to pretty much any dealer who wants one and certainly most in the major markets such as yours. However, I found many dealer sales personnel that didn't even know the E55 was available as a wagon. It is rare, exclusive, and fast.

Pricing is around $85K base (includes destination and gas guzzler tax) and then you can add pretty much all the same options that are available on an E55 sedan.

Helluva car. I just took delivery of mine: Designo Espresso package (Mocha Black paint and sand leather), Premium package (active/ventilated seats, navigation, 6-disc CD changer, rear windown sun shades), lighting package (active cornering bi-xenon headlamps), third row seat, power tailgate, keyless go, and tire pressure monitor.

You can find a few used ones already, too.

Good luck!

I got lost. What can I tell you about the car other than it's fantastic and I love it!

I will second or third that. We love ours! Rolling up on 10K miles and I still smirk every time I drive it!

What do you want to know?

You wonder sometimes, what is their job anyway?

Down in Australia we've always had AMG wagons (E and C), however I don't think we ever got an E39 M5 wagon, and we definately aren't getting the E60 M5 wagon...
Not much market for them here, so the AMGs are rare
