I love the E55 AMG. I’ve also been looking. The prices on the 2002 models are getting WAY down there also, around $17K even with lower mileage. Right now is a great time to buy a used high end luxury car. Crazy deals all over eBay right now.

I do agree that the 2003+ is a much better looking/performing car, the 2000-2002 is still a great car and half the price. That pic is not an AMG. Here is a pic of the AMG.

2002 is straight up ghetto at this point even as an AMG.

XJR.

Does the E55 have electronic brakes? The E-Class I drove did and it was an awful experience.

You know, for the longest time I did, until I got the M6 that is.

After after almost 2 years in that, I will probably never buy another benz over a bimmer.

Yeah ok the tourqe was nice, but as far as the bang for your buck supercar type feel, BMW all the way.
