E55 2006 / CLS55 / S450 / Jag XKR2011
I was going to do the same....... $13k ...... my wife was gona kill me......
plus, my 2004 E500 can still sell about $15k -$18k in autotrader.
And i found a E55 2006 at $29k. So $29K- $15K = $14K
The $$$ is about the same but from 2004 to 2006 (2 years newer)
Plus, stock E55 is more powerfull and more reliable than the Kleemann SC
All that not to mention the E55 comes with better leather seat and break system, rims, most of them with Dynamic seat....., Quad exhaust.....

Go for the E55 !!!

There is no comparison, go for the E55 or another 55 AMG car such as the CL,SL or S, you open up tons of modding potential and a better overall platform to work with.

I've heard of some. In Europe or Russia though. Something about a MKB'd out CLS55 4Matic destroying everything off the line-- Evos and Scooby-roos included.

Never actually seen it though.

Just searched it and found it on the MKB website. Must be great to have that power putting down on all four tires. Don't understand a word besides CLS 55K 4Matic tho. Here's the page for someone who can read it.

Well now it's cheaper to buy an e55 than a supercharger kit plus labor....

I would suggest you start a new thread specific to your question.

If you supercharge your E500, especially such a low-mileage car, you're shooting yourself in the foot when it comes time to sell it. It'll depreciate like a stone. Enjoy it for what it is, and watch it appreciate instead.
