I love my Mercedes AMG Wagon but have to sell it

My 2005 black low mileage AMG E55 Wagon is beautiful to the eye and fun to drive. It is a nimble touring car and a great daily drive car-- with three seat rows or substantial "trunk" space. This Wagon is in excellent condition because I have treated it as a part of my family: all service requirements have been observed and then some. (Service records are available at Mercedes Benz.) The car has retro fit Bluetooth compatibility and internal radar detection. It is also fitted for LoJack. Not many of this model Mercedes were made and even fewer continue to exist. With less than 53,000 actual miles on the odometer, it has many mile to go. I hate to sell it, but just purchased a new Mercedes!

This is my first Mercedes, having been a BMW driver all my life. After the styling misdirection with BMW I looked for an alternative. What a find! I love this car! It is comfortable for every day driving and when you want it.....it flies! It's hard to describe unless you actually have the opportunity to put your foot into it. I realize it is expensive but the thrill and the beauty of the car is worth the price of admission. The difference between this car and a BMW 545 sport in lease payment was less than $250 per month. It is the best $250 per month I have ever spent. The steering feel is not quite up to BMW standards but EVERYTHING else is head and shoulders above it.

This car is exciting on so many different levels. There is nothing like it on the road even though Audi and Cadillac try very hard. There's still nothing that feels, smells, or drives like a Benz. Faster than some Ferraris and Porsche's but practical enough to strap my daughter into her car seat and go go go!

I went from an Audi S4 to my E55 and have to say I am really disappointed with the MB. It is a great car, fast as can be but doesn't compare with the Audi. The handling and build quality of the MB aren't up to the Audi standards which was a let down.

We bought this magnificent auto, and I love it. Great pick up, yet very stylish and comfortable.
