I've found 2 e55 I'm interested in. Both color of my choice and similar options and condition. One has 66k miles and the sl65 2 piece gunmetal wheels, other has 74k miles, standar wheels, but is $2k cheaper. Is that mileage a huge difference? And what about the rims?

Its not a big difference in mileage.
I rather get the one that has 66k miles with 2 piece SL65 wheels.

Agreed.. Id get the lower mileage one.. And if they are oem wheels, deff worth the the $2k and then some..

One thing I forgot to mention. The turnoff from the 66k mileage one was that the nav screen had some scratches. I didn't see the car myself since this one is 400 miles away but had family check it out. That seems like one thing I wouldn't be able to fix and would **** me off.

I'm assuming they are OEM but theres no real way for me to find out without seeing it in person which is unlikey until I buy the car. here is a pic though

If its something that would bug you alot, then go with the one that has 74K, save yourself 2g's and call it a day.

Get the lower mileage one. Pick up a euro command for 5-800$ and be able to watch DVDs My Cls had a beat up screen so I picked up a euro command from here.

CityOfAngels, buy the lower mileage E55, get yourself some Novus scratch remover (for the screen), and don't look back!!

You can do that or you can get the computer screen wipes that come in individual packets and use them to clean and remove scratches.

If neither has a warranty, then get the higher mileage one and use the $2k for maintenance/rainy day fund or get a nice set of rims.

i would go for the lower milage one with the 2 peice wheels, if that was the only differance, the wheels are pretty hard to get hold of in the first place also slightly lower milage, go for it.

Don't factor in the scratched COMAND screen at all.

My E63 showed up with horrible scratches on the screen, so I followed the instructions in the "DIY: Removing scratches from COMAND screen" thread and the screen looks absolutely brand new. It took me about an hour of work and it was definitely worth the time.

In reality there is no difference between 66k and 74k miles. Also depends who has been driving it. Test drive both if you can to see for yourself. If you like the sl65 rims, then go with the lower mileage one
