Your garage is in a league of its own. Its disappointing that a heavily modified E55 doesn't fit the bill. You must be doing some crazy daily driving that this E55 is substandard. Its been great seeing pics of your stable and your garage and I hope you remain a contributing member.

Are you willing to part out by any chance?

f430 high 11's

The only car that is close would be the Ford GT and If the e55 is pushing 625 HP I don't see any of these blowing it away?
My GT is twin-turbo 1000rwh
Lambo is twin-turbo 1550 rwh
M5 Dinan 5.7 stroked 640 hp
The E55 is faster than my F430
I do have some faster Vettes too..

I have spent about $6500 on it, not including shipping to me after buying it from Mike..

No, selling as is. One thing I forgot to mention, I do have the stock wheels also that will go with it. I want $52500 for it. I sold the other '06 I had with 24k for $39900, so I think this is deal for someone.

I am really surprised to see you selling the e55 so quickly. I really am. But best of luck with the sale, and as always, it was a pleasure seeing pictures of your stable.

SW, Good to see you here. Been a long time since you helped me with my C5 back in Austin. Moved on to a C6 (2) and now my DD is 996TT. The E55 is the family car (wagon).

To any that don't know SW, count on the car being flawless and beautiful.

Went by and saw the E55 today. I have been a friend and customer of SW's for many years, and like everything he owns and sells, this beast is awesome. It will make some new owner very happy.

It's a shame that car doesn't get driven more. Someone needs to buy it and enjoy it like AMG intended.

I think 52K for an 06 no matter how it is modded probably has something to do with it
