Should I buy a E55 AMG with 99,000 miles or is that to much?

W109 W211 6.2L

If it has a clean VMI and no accidents 1 owner and all maintance is done and documented, It might be a decent buy.

But remember when it comes time to fix it its still a $100K Mercedes.

Dont skimp out, find one with lower miles.. If a low miles one is out of your price range, then wait..

I actually disagree, 03-05 are bad years for Mercedes Benz. (Especially 2000 to 2002 W220)

That being said, a car that has been used with some miles probably has all the issues worked out of it. Maybe a little less miles would be nice 70kish but cars with 30k miles and an 03 are a flag for me especially if it has more than 1 owner. Also from all the research I have done from S600 to E55 to CL65 they all run strong over 100k and into 150k as long as they are maintained. I think the 100k preception stems from the performance droping in American cars at around 100k but these cars run strong well past 100k

Also miles isnt a reflection of age or quality of a car but only motor use. The Suspension, Bushings, Rotors, Struts, Frame, Fuel Injectors and Filters are all 8 years old

I've got an 04 with 103k miles and it drives like it did the day i bought it (3.5 yrs and 60k miles ago).
