Sounds like it from the ad. I know people like that. Great people but they have the biggest head issues and tell tall tails. Like that movie Big Fish

Also if one was strongly emphasizing 700+BHP in a E55 would they not want to post a pic of the engine and or the Dyno sheet. Seems like there is more talk about what the car eats for breakfast, lunch and dinner and not enough on that particular car itself. I almost forgot I was reading a used car listing. Either way $25,000 for that car seems like one very nice deal to me.

I have to give the guy credit for winging for the fences. I hope to have an extremely fast E55 by next summer, but will buy another car for my quest to reach 900 to 1000HP.

Thats a sleeper rear bumper unless the exhaust is blacked out, hard to tell in the vid. Bet that car surprises a few people.

I was not aware of the huge depreciation that the E class is having. 7 years = around 75% depreciation (just using base MSRP without options). That hurts .
Comparing this with my C, I just sold mine and in 4 years = 30% (comparing to base MSRP without options).

Now he is changing the ad.

"This E55 is officially faster than....
1) A military rocket sled which clocked mach 8.5 on rails.



2) The New Horizons module en route to Pluto at 36,000mph


3) tachyons
Although we debate this with the homeys at CERN , I have PERSONALLY seen these travel 60 nanoseconds faster than light and the 55 just walked them from a dig in the particle accelerator. Einstein would have tripped hard over this angry angry machine.
