2001 Mercedes-benz E55 Amg Base Sedan 4-door 5.5l on 2040-cars
Ardmore, Pennsylvania, United States
This is my personal E55 up for
sale! I just bought another car and I
don’t have space for two, so I am very reluctantly selling it. For those that don’t know, the W210 E55
AMG is amongst the best value-for-money AMGs, period. In fact, few other cars offer the same blend
of outright performance, quality build, practicality, and reliability that come
as neatly wrapped as the W210 E55 package.
They’re fast and bullet-proof and don’t have the expensive and frequent
repair issues of the W211s (2003-2006) E55s, especially the $1,000/ corner Airmatic
DC shocks. Since fewer than 2,000 cars were
imported to the USA, there is only a small number of well-documented low
mileage examples left. In this case, I bought the car from the
original owning family in Miami. All
major service history is documented since new.
The prior owner pampered the car and it really shows. It’s highly unlikely that you will find
a car with so few miles, no accident history and a complete service
history. This E55 is truly a rare find. Exterior The car is finished in Obsidian Metallic
on black interior as opposed to the majority of cars which are silver or 040
Black. The paint is glossy wet and in excellent condition. The previous owner
was meticulous with the car. Fortunately, it shows! One of the reasons I picked
this car, is because it hides dirt and dust better than black, and it's in
pristine condition! I use Meguiars car wash, Zymol wax and Liquid Glass auto polish
that is used on airplanes. (clearly I have praaablems) The paint doesn't have
any swirls, scratches or dings, and the body is pretty straight! The car has also never been in any accidents
and has a clean CarFax. Interior The interior is finished in black nappa
leather. The seats are soft and supple with perforations. The seats don't have
any tears, rips, stains, blemishes, or show any signs of neglect. The carpet
inside is as fresh as it is when it was new. There aren't any stains, rips,
spills, or holes in the carpet. I also purchased genuine Mercedes-Benz all
weather floor mats to protect the interior if it was raining, and just to
protect the floor mats that are in the car. I also purchased a custom fitted
sun shade to help protect the car from heat and the rays from the sun. The wood
in the car is a Black Birds-Eye Maple. I like the color because it blends in
well with the black upholstery. The
seats were treated with Leatherique® by hand and no expense was spared for
mechanical maintenance. Mechanical What can I say? When I bought this car, I
had the prior owner furnish all of the service records, which I still
have. I’m happy to furnish a summary of
work done to date. I feel that with this calibre of a car, it's SO important to
know the history! Another reason I bought it from a private seller who was a
stickler for maintenance. So, since I've
had it, the only thing I've had done is the typical belt-tensioner and
serpentine belt ($700) and the trunk lock, which died ($800). The prior owner replaced a variety of
things, including the all-important A/C Evaporator for a whopping $3,000. This is the Achilles heel of the W210 chassis
and every car seems to need a new one at one point or another. The regularly gets 24mpg on the highway,
which is awesome for a 5.5L V8 engine!
To my knowledge, the car appears to need nothing more than a new home. And since it's safely parked in my
driveway, until the new owner comes to get it, it won’t need attention. I
always run Premium unleaded in this car, and I spare no expense to ensure its
upkeep. This is my 16th Mercedes I've owned. So, I'm not just an individual
with a "Benz" in the driveway. I'm the kind of individual that keeps
his cars squared away and clean. I believe in preventative maintenance rather
than repetitive maintenance. Should you need an inspection, I would be more
than happy to take it to a Mercedes-Benz dealer (at your expense) for a
"pre-purchase inspection" Tyres Tyres on this car are in great
condition. They are top-of-the line Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 ($1,100) and were
installed just before I bought the car. The Fine Print Okay, so here's the deal. If you've
gotten this far, it's obvious that you are serious about my car I have tried to describe everything to
the best of my knowledge, and I don't have anything to hide. If you have
questions, I would be glad to answer them for you. My name is Farra and my cell
number is 610-389-4329. If I don't answer, please leave me a message. I will
call you back. As far as price goes, I believe it is priced quietly fairly
given its pedigree. You can buy a cheaper one, sure. But you really do get what you pay for. This car is not just an AMG that has
been bought and sold by an independent dealer that doesn't have a solid paper
trail. If you want a car that has no books and records, you will pay for it...not
now, but in the long run in maintenance. If you haven't checked on what an
evaporator (common problem) on this car is, it's not a $500 deal...try $4,000.00!
So, if you want a damn good solid car, then here ya go! I have a free and clear title in hand. If
you buy the car, you will have to get a temporary plate through your DMV or PA
DMV if you plan on driving it out of state or anywhere at that matter. Shipping If you plan on coming to Philly, I would
be glad to coordinate a time to pick you up from either airport. If you have a
shipper and want to ship it, I would be glad to meet them if needed close to
the house so they can load it on the truck. I will do the inspection with the
driver before it goes on the truck so that everything is legit. I'm flexible
with whatever you want to do, just let me know. The car is being sold by me,
and I am not a dealer or a third party. The car is being sold AS/IS-WHERE/IS,
and no warranties are implied. If you need a shipper, I will be glad to help
you. I wish everyone the best of luck, and
you won't be sorry! |

Mercedes-AMG GT S aggressively priced at $129,900*
Sun, Jan 25 2015Just a few days ago we brought you leaked information regarding pricing for Mercedes' new flagship supercar. Now the German automaker has confirmed that the new Mercedes-AMG GT S will indeed retail for $129,900 (*plus a $925 destination charge). That may seem like a big chunk of change, and by most standards it is. But it starts to fall into reasonable territory when you put it into context. For one thing, it's not the most expensive Mercedes – not by a long shot. The previous SLS AMG fetched around $200k, and most anything else at the top of the AMG range – like the S63, SL63, G63 or GL63 – will set you back more than the new GT S, and don't even get us started on anything with the V12 and the number 65. The new Maybach S600 will set you back nearly $190k, and that bonkers G63 6x6 goes for over half a million. As for its rivals, the pricing places the AMG GT S right on pace with the Porsche 911 GT3 (whose 475 horsepower the Benz neatly trumps with 503 hp) and a good $20k less than the more powerful 911 Turbo. It also comes closer to the $115,900 that Audi charges for an R8 with a V8 than the $153,900 it gets for the ten-cylinder version, although the Benz edges closer to the latter in terms of output. The pricing does make it a fair bit more expensive than even the top end of the Jaguar F-Type range, which (short of the Project 7 speedster) maxes out at under $100k for the R model. Contrary to its predecessor and the SLR that came before, however, Benz is wisely staying out of Ferrari/Lamborghini/McLaren territory this time around. In short, Mercedes has clearly weighed its pricing strategy carefully. But if $130k is still too rich for your blood, the less potent base Mercedes-AMG GT will follow in the spring of 2016 with less power (quoted at 456 hp) and with a list price that's yet to be announced but promises to be a fair bit lower. In the meantime, deliveries of the GT S are scheduled to commence in April of this year. MERCEDES-BENZ ANNOUNCES PRICING ON ALL-NEW MY2016 MERCEDES-AMG GT S New Sports Car to Start at $129,900* January 23, 2015 - MONTVALE, NJ With the new Mercedes-AMG GT model range, the Mercedes-AMG sports car brand is moving into a new segment. As the second sports car developed entirely in-house by Mercedes-AMG, the GT has everything you would expect from an authentic Mercedes-AMG, from the characteristic styling, thoroughbred motorsport technology to the optimum weight distribution.
Mercedes CLA a sub-$30k car no more
Fri, Dec 12 2014To be honest, the sub-$30,000 Mercedes-Benz CLA was more a theoretical than a real thing. Squeaking in at $100 below that magical threshold, not counting a $925 destination charge, snagging a CLA anywhere near $30k meant exercising extreme self-control with the options catalog. Perhaps with that thinking in mind, Mercedes is set to effectively scrap the entire idea, with Cars Direct claiming the price on a new CLA is set to increase by about five percent, to $31,500. Adding 4Matic all-wheel drive brings the starting price to $33,500. Even the hot CLA45 AMG is getting a price bump, from $47,450 to $48,500. Frankly, it's impossible to miss where Mercedes is coming from with this move, if it actually happens. The CLA has been one of 2014's unmitigated success stories, selling so well that Mercedes has struggled to keep up with demand. Considering that, a modest price hike is to be expected.
Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet is the ultimate safari machine
Mon, Feb 13 2017Update: A Mercedes representative has informed us that the Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet will not be available in the United States. The text has been updated to reflect this. Vehicles such as the Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6x6 and G500 4x42 are all well and good, but they have one key issue: They simply aren't extravagant enough. Now we know that sounds insane because one of those vehicles has six driven wheels and the other is available in tennis-ball green. But they must not be decadent enough because Mercedes went a step further with the new Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet. While the most obvious change here is the soft-top, which will make this perfect for the wealthy to view wildlife on private safaris, we should start under the hood. The previous two monster G-Wagens made do with lowly V8s. This one features a twin-turbocharged V12 making 630 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque. Like its predecessors, this G650 uses a four-wheel-drive system with front, center, and rear differential locks, and sends power to solid portal axles front and rear. These axles move the differential and drive axles above the wheel centers for additional ground clearance. Inside, the rear passengers will be in the lap of luxury, even while the driver is navigating particularly harsh terrain. The soft top can be electrically raised or lowered, as can a glass partition to the driver's compartment. The two individual rear seats can be fully reclined, and leg rests deploy from below, taking full advantage of the truck's long wheelbase. This would likely make for an amazing vehicle for stargazing. The passengers also have access to folding tables, 10-inch LCD displays, and heated, cooled, and illuminated cup holders. Only 99 of these G650s will be built. Mercedes will show the SUV at this year's Geneva show, and it will hit the market this fall. Mercedes hasn't announced pricing, but expect it to be exorbitant. Not that matters for American buyers, since a Mercedes representative told us it won't be offered in the States. For buyers in countries where the G650 will be available, they will have the option of four interior color schemes, three soft-top colors, and four paint hues. Related Video:
