Outstanding! Bravo to an owner or owners who actually drove the car. Confirmation that these are great cars, that are really quite reliable.

That's my philosophy, nice its an AMG & very rare for my area but it's a car in the end at 138K miles for me.

400K miles & $13.5K for an 03? Seems high
If someone thinks that is a deal... I'll sell mine for $15K tomorrow

Im thinking that the price listed can mean different things to different people.
Its more of a collectors car at this point. If I was a rich car collector I would probably buy it just because my love for amg's and having probably the highest mileage e55 out there that is still in immaculate condition. Imagine if Mercedes bought this car from that dealer and they parked it in they're showroom, just for show not for sale, I'm pretty sure people would love to buy something like that

Ive seen that car in person a few months, owner said he was using it as his daily. I bought my s65 from them 2 years ago. They only keep clean showroom quality cars. He has a ton of AMGs and Ms and other performance cars. Price is high though, I wonder what the service history on that car is like

Carfax report looks good about the service record but nobody go dealer for tranny or engine rebuilt.

I would put ACV (Actual Cash Value) of what the dealer paid for that car somewhere between $1,200 and $1,500. They will be lucky to get $5,000 out of it.

I'd buy it for $3,000 no questions asked. That's a good candidate for a nice rebuild and track duty
