E55 Wagon

I am looking at a 05 E55 wagon with 65K on it. What do you think pricing should be? Any other thought son what I should look for. What a rocket.

Middle $30s, but it varies depending on history, condition, warranty, needed repairs, location, add-ons (expensive wheels, performance modifications), and options content. To fetch 35 or 36 it needs to be in showroom condition and have at least a year of warranty (factory or good 3rd party). If it has been in an accident, needs reconditioning or repair, and lacks a warranty - then maybe $33K.

Update: 3etoiles had an inspection done and drove the car, but then purchased another. See his notes on page 5 of the mega-wagon thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/mercedes-...ng-shot-5.html

Also check FASN8N's wagon for-sale registry, conveniently noted in his signature below.

Also, check the carfax and autocheck reports. I had notes about possible odometer issue?

At that price, I'd buy a dozen. Sure not going to sell mine. Best value in smiles per mile.
