@Jrad1600 9k is such a great deal for this condition and mileageI wouldn’t have parted with this for $9k either. During the winter months I notice a lot of RWD sedans aren’t as sought after since people are focused on more usable winter cars.$9,050 bid placed by @Rikenrunner

Absolutely love the w210 E55. this example looks amazing.@WDB748372 I'm not sure if you're thinking of the global market, but there were definitely 653 sold in the US in 2001. Here are the numbers for the W210 E55 (US Market): 1999: 1,104 2000: 1,203 2001: 653 2002: 997$8,000 bid placed by @Ranger902
@thembmarket The 653 production number for 2001 isn't accurate. Whoever started that number probably forgot to account for the 706 country/dealer code (part of the order number). There are 1,292 for 2001 MY with Brilliant Silver accounting for 712 of them. 198 in this exterior and interior combo for 2001 MY.$7,750 bid placed by @ekstarr
