Does anyone know how many 2005 e55 designo espresso editions were built?

Thanks for the help.

I don't think so.

LOL, there weren't that many '05s made much less designo ones much less coffee flavoured ones... The cars are rare, but the parts can be had. They are expensive and as always you need a vin to find them. Steve should have no issue swapping you out IF you really want to pay.

Bird's Eye Maple FTW!!!!!

Jangy, so how much would you be willing to pay extra for designo?

I've so far never seen one except mine + a member's here (sold ever since) + 1 @ autotrader + 2 at ebay (and one of them was wagon!!!! I tempted to get it... LOL... same car, same color, only one is wagon and one is sedan... wouldn't it be cool? LOL)

BTW, I think the designo espresso is not bird's eye maple... I think it's light poplar.

jangy

It is. i was saying that I prefer the standard bird's eye. I wouldn't pay a thing for designo. I guess they have more down here than other places, because I have seen many. Avoiding them was one of the hard things when I was shopping. I especially do not like the light colored ones..
