A high-performance variant of the W210 E-Class luxury sedan, the Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG came equipped with a hand-built 5.4-liter V8 along with AMG Monoblock wheels, Exclusive AMG leather upholstery, and an AMG-specific body kit. This pre-facelift 1998 example is a European-market car finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic over a Black and Emerald leather interior. It was imported to the U.S. from Japan in March 2023 and is now being offered for auction once again on PCARMARKET out of New York with approximately 57k kilometers (35k miles) on the odometer.
This E55 is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) and features an AMG-specific body kit with unique bumpers covers and side skirts. Other equipment includes xenon headlights with washers, front fog lights, a glass sunroof, dual exhaust pipes, and 18” five-spoke AMG Monoblock light alloy wheels. The seller notes all four wheels were professionally refinished and dressed in new tires under their ownership. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
Inside, this W210 is appointed with Black and Emerald (586) Exclusive AMG leather upholstery complemented by Black Birdseye Maple wood trim. Accessories include heated and power-adjustable front sport seats, driver memory settings, a heated rear bench seat, dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, a rear sunshade, auto-dimming mirrors, a rain sensor, the Parktronic system, and a sound system. An aftermarket OE-style Continental Bluetooth head unit was installed under the seller's ownership. The seller adds that the two rear window regulators have been disconnected due to a possible fault in the module.
This E55 AMG is equipped with a naturally aspirated 5.4-liter M113 V8 engine producing 349 HP and 391 lb.-ft of torque. The rear wheels are driven through a 5-speed automatic transmission. Service performed under the seller’s care in 2023 included replacements of the fuel sending unit, evaporator hose, engine oil/filter, air filters, cabin filter, differential fluid, power steering fluid, coolant, and a brake system flush.
This sale will include a clean title: "I have been in love with this car since the first time I saw one in 1999! In the US, we only had 1 year of this car before it got a refresh and I find these early cars to be more desirable, especially from a build quality standpoint. To keep this short, this is a stunning example, and the blue seat inserts are to die for. No disappointments with this car, come see it. Happy Bidding!"

I know the seller and the car - you can have complete confidence in both.
Whoever ends up owning this today will be very happy with it.
@dspoljaric hello that is not what I had said. I said now that the content is there, it would be nice to see a bid.
A new video has been added to the listing page.
@EUROsellinc: I wasn't aware that receiving a response from a Seller requires a bid first. If I bid I will bid to win, but I first need to feel a level of trust that is built up for buying a car sight unseen from Seattle.

@dspoljaric will work on it. Please understand we are putting in writing that the hvac is functioning correctly so this is unnecessary however will accommodate. Once it’s there we hope to actually see a bid from you!
@EUROsellinc: I know you have commented that the HVAC system works, but all the videos show that both sides are turned OFF. Please post a video of the HVAC system working to confirm both sides are working as intended and as separate channels. Thank you
from @MBM_Ben
Good morning @Eurosellinc Are you able to take some photos of the undersides of the doors and the underside of the small cover over the license plate lights on the decklid?
Neither of these requests required taking the car outside.
@dspoljaric what exactly are you looking for? I have responded with an answer that states the AC and heat are working as the factory intended. Please bear in mind that this car is in a climate controlled building, and there is snow, slush and sleet all over the roads as well as salt, which is prohibiting us from taking the car out and doing any additional content.
@EUROsellinc: with the clock winding down, will you be providing the additional pics/video requested? Or is silence the answer?

@luis.seneriz no concerns that I see. Obviously with any piece of machinery something can go wrong and we always advise shipping. As of this moment, the car starts runs and drives flawlessly. Everything that we can see is in beyond reasonable working order. This is a very high caliber example.
@EUROsellinc thanks. Any concerns driving this car from NY to Texas? Im a fly and drive guy.

@luis.seneriz the air conditioning and heat operate flawlessly. Bid with confidence.
@Blubyeyou hi and I appreciate the question. The card did not sell on the last auction. If you look, it shows bid to xxx
@1900market yes. It was very hard to source this tank, we had to grab one in Denmark. It has been installed. The car is now turn-key
@luis.seneriz hello and thank you for the question. We did not spare any expense with this car, the technician clean the area and the leak did not resurface. It was more sweat than anything, not really a leak. This car is superb and is going to make someone very happy.
Bid in the amount of $6,000
Bid in the amount of $5,500
Can you show us videos of the ac system and the heat working on the car? The evaporator on this car is by the dash, if it’s leaking it’s a super expensive job to fix it, the whole dash has to come apart.
Bid in the amount of $5,000
What happened with the last auction? Did the winner not follow through with the purchase?
Invoice also says fuel tank found rusty and replacement recommended. Has this been done?
Check the back lights seems like you have some bad two way light bulbs, also the reverse lights never came on, so I’m not sure if the car was put in reverse . I’m really interested in your car and therefore I’ll be asking a lot of questions, you can check my profile, I have bought two cars on this site. Luis in Texas

Nice car, they are not built like this today. On the invoice it states that there is a small leak on the driver side valve cover gasket has this been addressed? Thank you and good luck with the Auction.
