Every once in a while you have an opportunity to own something great. I recently was given one of these opportunities when I came across this pristine, gorgeous and intoxicating 2004 Mercedes Benz E55 AMG finished in Brilliant silver metallic over charcoal/charcoal premium leather trimmed interior with burl walnut wood accents. This stunning example of one of the most sought after German muscle-saloons ever created AND the fastest E-Class that MB has ever built, truly is an amazing vehicle. PA State Inspected and Emissions Safety Certified throughout 01/18 and guaranteed to come with a clean Title History and accident-freeCarfax Report.With only 72,000 original miles, this car is literally still at “break-in mileage”. The 5.4L Kompressor V-8 is a work of art all on its own, was hand-built by one man at the Mercedes factory 14 years ago…and it is still the centerpiece to this magnificent vehicle. Originally rated at ONLY 469hp and 516lb-ft of torque, these cars were rolling off the factory assembly line with 490 horse (which was never a well-kept secret…Merc would have been hard-pressed to sell this car for $80,000 and have it rated at the same power as their $110,000 S55). With 35% quicker shifts, SPEEDSHIFT delivers maximum acceleration and efficiency. It’s also linked to Mercedes’ TOUCHSHIFT, which allows manual gear change through buttons on the back of the steering wheel. And allows this E55 AMG to vault to 60 MPH in…are you ready for this?...4.4 seconds!! The 1/4 mile rips by in only 12.7 seconds at 114 miles-per-hour. That’s just a hair slower than a Porsche 911 Turbo, and real pin-you-to-the-seat acceleration. But it’s also smooth as silk, with a turbine-like drive from idle to redline. A testament to the remarkable skills of AMG. Good thing all the brakes and rotors were replaced less than 2,000 miles ago!
All that power can easily unhook the rear tires, so Mercedes has equipped the E55 with its sophisticated ASR traction and ESP stability systems. They combine engine control and braking to automatically adjust cornering if your ambition outruns your driving skill. Both systems can be turned off, and allows you to hang the rear end out and really test the semi-active multi-link air suspension system, and sticky ZR-rated Continental Extreme Contact tires (245/35 in the front and 275/30 in the rear) which all have less than 1,000 miles on them and are mounted on a flawless set of 19" Mercedes-Benz alloy's which were taken from a 2010 E63 AMG…and they sure do give this car an attitude. And don’t forget to have fun playing with the height adjustable Airmatic suspension system, which operates flawlessly (difference shown in the last 2 photos), to adjust the handling and ride feel.
When it comes to the condition of this car it truly is second to none. You would have to search high and low before you would ever find a car to compare to this one. No dents, dings, scratches or imperfections to talk about. Anything that we could see, we’ve photographed for you. No rips or tears, and the electronics are all in properorder. Navigation, dual power / memory / heated seats, power rear sunshade / moonroof, Harman Kardon Premium Sound, and so much more! This Benz may be 13 years old now, but she’s just as pretty as the day she rolled off the showroom floor!
There is not much more that I can say about this E55 AMG. It’s been on my list of cars I wanted to own for quite some time, and I have to say, it does not disappoint. I have quickly fallen in love and hate to see it go! My wife and I will enjoy looking at it in the garage and driving it once or twice a week until the perfect next owner comes along. Call or email with ANY questions. Come and see this beauty for yourself if you can…you will NOT be disappointed. Please no tire-kickers or hecklers. This truly a one-of-a-kind car whichis highly desirable and I know the PERFECT owner will find it.
