Wtb: E55

Hello guys,

First post here. I am doing some research for my next possible car and this forum looks like a lot of help. As of now, Ive got a C6, RL and an IS300. I got a few questions to start with.

1. How much should I realisticly expect to pay for a reasonably optioned 03 or 04 E55 with approx 30-40k miles and good condition? I will be trading in my 06 Vette for this btw.

2. Is there any difference between the 03 and onward model years?

3. What kind of problems are common in these cars, since Ive never had a mercedes b4.

Thanx for the help in advance and I look forward to contribute something back to this forum.

Happy Friday

The late '04s had the electrical gremlins in the Comand worked out. New steering rack, shocks, suspension in '05 (late production). New IC pump in '06.

Good luck. Either way, you'll love the ride.

safe bet is going with an 04+...preferably an 05...but it all depends on what your budget is

My apologies for not mentioning the budget. I might have to keep looking for this but I dont wanna spend over 50g for this. I would really love something less then 50 though. My vette's trade in is 42+ as of now and I am sure I can get a lil more if I sell privately.

Find an '05 for $55.
