2005 Mercedes Benz Modified W211 E55 AMG
Hi all,
I’m looking for a new home for my 2005 E55 AMG, Black/Black, 79K miles. I love the car very much but own too many cars and have no space to put them. I’m the 3rd owner and have owned the car for the last 9 months, having put only 4K miles on it. The car is not being driven currently so mileage will stay the same.
Overall, the car is in very good condition with absolutely no mechanical issues. As you probably know, maintenance on these cars is not cheap so in an effort to find the most problem-free car possible, I looked at several W211 E55s before buying and researched the platform thoroughly. It helps that this car is not an 03-04 but all the potential problem /recall areas (fuel pump and sending units, air suspension, SBC pump, IC pump, etc.) on this example have been dealt with.
It has roughly 550HP /600 ft/lbs (crank) and is a hoot to drive when you can find the space to open it up (which, living in a pretty urban area, I unfortunately can’t very often). The car is fairly striking and attracts a good amount of attention which could be a good thing or bad thing depending on personal preference.
Car was just detailed today and is ready to go. Considering the condition, mods, and how well sorted this car is, I’m pretty firm on the price of $26,000 + shipping (buyer sets up shipping) for now. Not looking for trades or to part out- will move the car quickly if the right opportunity comes along.
Options / Vitals:
· $26,000 ($89K sticker price without mods) + shipping (buyer sets up shipping)

· Pano roof (working)
· Dynamic, heated, and cooled front seats (still working!)

· Exterior is in very good condition with no dings or dents.
· Interior is in excellent condition with wear only showing on driver’s seat and steering wheel.
