Question Is Euro delivery available on the E55 AMG (W211)??

If so, wouldn't that solve the 'waiting list' and markup problems on the 2004 W211 E55 AMG?

US dealers will tell that there is no Euro delivery program for US spec. AMG cars...but I know of at least one person that was able to do it by insisting that it could be done.

I tried arranging Euro delivery for an SL55 and was told this was not possible.

I was told it was possible provided the car was within the allocation for that particular dealer...

From a very reliable source...It CAN be done. It just depends if the dealer wants to "play ball" with you.

Is it a hassle to buy a European version from a European dealer and have it imported to the U.S.?

Import of Euro purchased, Euro-spec vehicles can be done but is costly once you take care of import costs/tariffs, changeover to US emissions standards etc. Certainly doesn't save any money, but it can be a way to obtain a vehicle you couldn't otherwise get (conveniently) in the US.
