What Would You Pay for a 400,000-Mile 2003 E55 AMG?



This 2003 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG may be priced a bit optimistically.

Read the rest on the MBWorld homepage. >>

E63 AMG 2007
I wouldn't pay more than salvage value while assuming a blown engine, then hope it kept running so I could enjoy it. Can you imagine trying to sell this? Also there are still some nice lower mile examples that are reasonably priced. So maybe $5K. Tops.

There was an earlier thread on this- I can vouch for this dealership, its where I got my s65 from. All their cars ( a lot of AMGs) are clean and in showroom condition, can't say much about this car though as Ive never seen it etc, and i also believe that they are asking a lot for it. My friend actually sent me a vid of this, someone did a review on it

quite interesting.

They're on crack asking that much money. Miles are miles, no matter where they're driven. Personally I'd pass on this one, but if I did buy it, I'd buy it at a price that I could flip it at, or at the very least, not lose money. $2000, take it or leave it. If the motor or tranny pops, I can afford to find one with less than 100,000 miles and get it put in.

Mercy should buy this car to share as an example of how long their cars last. It's externally in superlative shape for having earned so many miles!

If you spend $5K on it you cant go wrong even if it fails in a year or two..Still looks really nice and would make a hell of a commuter car!
