E55 VS. E63 AMG W211 | Which one to buy? (4K)

In this video I cover the pros/cons of each of the Mercedes-Benz W211 AMG eclass cars and will help guide you when choosing between the two cars on the used market. The E55 vs. E63 question is one of the most popular questions I get in the comments. The E55 AMG ran from 2003-2006 and the E63 went from 2007-2009.

the white instrument cluster on e55 is too cool, classy

Nice, real, and fair evaluation for both of the cars . I owned an E 55T and now an E 63T . What I would add: The E63 has a much firmer and saver suspension . May be not that important for the US, but here in Germany, where you legally can go 186 mph on the street ( both cars are able to) the E 63 will prevent you from sweat in the hands. The E 55 will need an experienced driver
to handle it savely above 160 mph.

E63 is the car to choose, if you want to listen to that amazing naturally aspirated V8 while limping it into the shop all the time.

You can buy both. There is no mistake here. Both cars are amazing!

Great video and on point . My old 2007 e63 had 162k and really never had any issues with her .. no deadbolt..nothing aside from cracked radiator, ballpoints and brakes .she was a mean beast

Nice comparison video. I would choose the E63 because I really like the facelift and the technical upgrades over the E55. I know that it suffers from the head bolt issue and I think the fuel injectors as well but the E63 suits me fine with 507 naturally aspirated horse power.

E55 for me!!! but change the front end to the E63.... Mainly bc I like the vents on the bumper 😀

This is my video request fellas I asked him for this video.

Thanks AMG you the real MVP. I hope some one really big in the car community or someone big with Mercedes sponsors your channel you deserve it.

The E55 is the better car. not much debate there.

I have an E55, the car is a MEAN F***in Machine!!

That is one clean E55 engine bay! Great comparison. Love my 06 E55, they aren't easy to find anymore. I'm over 160, 000 miles and plan on getting 300, 000 out of it

I'll take the CF-101 Voodoo!  As a boy, I used to watch them open the Abbotsford Air Show out in the Fraser Valley of BC.  A division of Voodoos crossing show center in full AB was awesome.  And the CF-104 was a rocket ship.  Thank you for the AMG comparison -- and for re-kindling wonderful memories.  Fly Navy!

great video as always, man. i will always choose the e55 as it's much cheaper to modify as far as power mods go. the NA power is insignificant and combined with the engine problems like the head bolts I always hear about is a big minus. i think an e55 with e63 bumpers and lights would be my ultimate w211.

[mtnman]

Great video. I'm still on the fence about a final year E55 or a W212 6.3 E63. I'm a sucker for a big N/A V8 and I would never modify it. I would have no problem keeping up with the maintenance and taking it apart for the head work.

Awesome videos as usual. You by far have the cleanest E55 I've seen.

[borisdzhanamov]

Truth has been spoken thumbs up man! E63 is certainly more refined and rev happy but the E55 is just a classic big old strong brute that pulls like a train and for me personally one of the best german muscle cars.

[wrathgar]

E55 always. Mine is a sleeper and second favourite only to my G-wagen. Have driven an E63 and is great, but seriously the E55 has more torque and feels so much better off the line. Sounds better too. I'll never sell mine.

[karpetcm]

Just bought my E55. Absolutely love the car. Drove a couple of E63’s just decided the E55 fits my needs or wants better.

It's all about the heart, in this case the engine. M113K has long been proven to be bulletproof. As opposed to M156 with head bolt issues and cam wear issues. Not to mention the performance upgrades available for the 55k platform. Lastly I'm starting to notice that they're asking more money for a clean E55 than a clean E63 with about the same miles.
