This was a fun day for me, Zack was a super nice and appreciate he's input and taking my car out for a spin. I sold the E55 to buy a E63 which I now have.

Transporting it because he is worried about it making an 8hr drive is hilarious. It's in your head dude, I drive mine freaking everywhere it's dead nuts reliable.

Wonderful vid. M113 - best engine ever made. Mine has 292k and still running like hell 👍🏻 ✌🏻

[GHOSTJERKER]

I own a 2003 E55. 133, 000 miles and still running strong💪

I keep coming back to watch this video! I found a well maintained 2 owner E55 with under 100k miles about 2 years ago and have been slowly replacing the suspension bushings, flex discs, mounts etc. and did an i/c pump upgrade and a VRP clutched 77mm blower pulley w/RaceIQ tune. I’m looking for some long tubes headers and going to do 550lph injectors, a looped fuel rail and 80mm t/b and ported blower inlet while I’m in there. Since COVID I have only put 9000 miles on it and I get all of my maintenance parts from FCP Euro and just did an oil change, conductor plate and fluid service so I hope to keep it forever and have already turned down random people offering to buy it!

Ugh, I love these. Definitely one of my favorite AMG cars.

[thelabgeek]

This thing came out during my sophmore year in HS. Quite literally my favorite AMG car. Sounds so darn good.

"Sounds like a couple of mustangs arguing in a tunnel"

[peterhert]

This Car, when you can drive it properly, gives a lot of goosebumps and smiles. But It can scare you sometimes also. I will never sell our E55K. (Germany).

[ShaiyanHossain]

the best E class AMG imo, even better as a wagon

[ahemgee]

I've got a 04 E55K 7 seater Estate. Absolutely love it. Sounds amazing, immense torque but super comfy seats and air ride. New ones are too stiff cheaper interior and rock hard seats .

[razerone]

If there’s been one odd obsession I’ve had with a car I never owned it’s this bad boy. Ultimate daily with an attitude. Glorious exhaust note out of that v8, pretty quick, super comfy and roomy for yourself and passengers. And best of all, extremely affordable right now. I add a lot of power to my cars so I always stuck with Audi for its AWD traction but was always tempted by this baby. Great review👍

[R_Tower]

In person, this car whine’d like a pulley’d Eaton 03-04 Cobra.

Sounded pretty good.

[Mercedes-AMG_Motorentechnik]

Back again on that great Channel. The W211 model is the best E-Class ever made by Mercedes Benz. I own one of the first models built in 2002 with now 300K Kilometers. M113 is a real beast-machine. This car will never getting old. It's timeless...

[truth]

I own an E500 and every single day someone approaches me and says wow.. nice car man! It is a timeless design.

[iantownsend]

I’ve been looking at these for a while on eBay also loved the CLS 55 amg

[karpetcm]

im shocked it got alot of views, best car I've ever owned. Miss it, thanks Zack for taking the time to review it 🙏. I would love to buy a white one one day again.

[dunes]

im starting to really enjoy Zack doing those one takes. I also love the fact that he really take time for the Guess.. thanks Zack

[tipsofme]

I own an 05 C55 and have had zero issues with it. Only 81k miles. Same motor but no super charger. I’d love to own an E55 for a weekend car. C55 is a great daily and sounds exactly the same minus the whine.

[tipsofme]

The E55 is a 200mph sedan for $12/$14k lol
