This 2000 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG has just under 29,700 miles since new and is 1 of 1,203 units offered for the model year in the U.S. market. Finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic over two-tone Black and Grey leather upholstery, power is provided by a 5.4-liter V8 mated to a five-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes xenon headlights, a glass sunroof, heated and multi-contour front seats, memory settings, cruise control, automatic climate control, a rear sunshade, and a Bose cassette stereo. The car was first registered in January 2000 in Roanoke, Virginia by the original owner who immediately relocated to California in April 2000 where it remained with them until 2020. The car spent a brief time in Illinois with a dealer before being acquired by another enthusiast. The seller acquired the car from them on The MB Market in September 2025. Since that time, preventative services performed on the car includes a transmission service, brake fluid flush, coolant flush, engine oil & filter change, and new OEM #2 spring pads. The car is now offered with manufacturer's literature, the original tool roll, one key, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.
The exterior is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744U) and features factory AMG body work including sculpted front and rear bumpers, side skirts, factory rolled fenders, and twin chrome exhaust outlets. Additional details include factory blue tinted glass, xenon headlights, headlight washers, power-adjustable mirrors, rain-sensing wipers, and a glass sunroof. All rubber seals are in excellent condition and there is no sign of rust or corrosion anywhere on the body. The seller notes two very minor touch up spots which are detailed in the gallery.
Original 18″ AMG Aero II Monoblock wheels are wrapped in 245/40 front and 275/35 rear Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires which were mounted in November 2020 and show 2020 date codes. The wheels were previously refinished under prior ownership and the seller notes some minor imperfections around the faces. New OEM #2 spring pads were recently installed along with a brake flluid flush.
The interior features seats upholstered in two-tone Black and Grey AMG Exclusive leather (528) with matching door panels and head rests. Birdseye maple wood trim accents the dashboard, center console, and door panels with no signs of fading or cracking. Additional features include heated and multi-contour front seats with memory settings, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, a power rear-window sunshade, and a Bose cassette stereo with a trunk-mounted six-disc CD changer. The headliner is fully intact with no sagging and the original E55 AMG floor mats are included.
The multifunction steering wheel is covered in two-tone leather and frames an AMG-branded 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer, along with gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates just under 29,700 miles and shows all functioning pixels in the digital ambient temperature gauge and clock.
This E55 is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.4-liter M113 V8 rated at 349 horsepower and 391 lb-ft. of torque when new. Regular dealer services are seen on the Carfax until 2012. The mass air-flow sensor and fuel filter were replaced in 2020 along with the rear brake pads. Service in August 2025 included an oil & filter change and an A/C service which consisted of a new pressure switch and full evacuate and recharge of the system. The most recent preventative service earlier this year consisted of a coolant flush, brake fluid flush, and an oil & filter change.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission. A transmission service with fresh fluid and a new filter has been recently performed. Additional underbody photos are viewable in the gallery below.
Decoding the data plate yields the following information:
The Carfax report lists linear mileage updates since new, along with no accidents or other damage. The car is located in Sherman Oaks, California with the seller and will provide the original tool roll, manufacturer's literature, one key, and a clean California title with the car.

With limited production numbers, the W210 E55 AMG has become a rare commodity. Enthusiasts today are searching for the perfect car that still maintains a more connected, analog feel while providing speed, style, reliability, and modern day creature comforts. If that isn’t the W210 AMG, then we don’t know what is. Many of the surviving examples on the market are well beyond 200k miles and, in some cases, are burdened with corrosion issues. This particular E55 has managed to accrue less than 30k miles, mostly all in California, since rolling off the showroom floor and has been cared for as a proper enthusiast example should. The naturally aspirated M113 will forever be hailed as one of AMG's most robust and reliable engines. Back in its day, the E55 was able to compete from a performance standpoint with the likes of the Porsche 911 and Chevrolet Corvette. The only difference was seating for 5 and a comfy, luxurious cabin fit for long trips or the daily commute. The W210 AMG is no longer a secret; it’s officially a sought after collectible and, with limited production numbers, finding a clean, low mileage example is getting more rare by the day.
When compared to the later generations of E-class, even of the most recent years, we would choose this E55 each and every day. From a reliability and cost-to-own standpoint, there's nothing better. No air suspension to quarrel with, brake jobs don't cost thousands, no interior screens to fail, no supercharger or turbo to worry about...just raw, unapologetic analog wizardry from the powerhouse of AMG. The current caretaker of this E55 is no stranger to collectible Benzes and has strong credibility. For the sake of being thorough, the car received all fresh fluids recently and is turn-key ready. We love the attention to detail from the seller with new, smaller spring pads to get a proper OEM ride height. There aren't many left out there this nice so don't miss your opportunity.

Congrats Fefred! Odd this car has such low miles and what I assume are original wheels, but has the non-factory lug bolts. The original factory E55 bolts will be flush with the wheel face. Not that anyone will notice, lol... :)Congrats! My quest continues:(If you live near Seattle I would love to see the car live.Damn you Fred!$41,000 bid placed by @Fefred

Stunning example! Love seeing them this clean!I was fortunate enough to spend a lot of quality time with this car and can attest to how incredibly nice it is. It's truly one of the nicest examples left out there. I think the values of these are going to continue to rise as they become more rare by the day. There's a reason I personally own 6 W210's (4 E55's and 2 E60's). They're simply the best. Good luck to all bidding today, this one is a gem!$32,000 bid placed by @Fefred

@mbz2000 I saw the mention that it was listed last year but this is the 4th time listed? I'm newish to MB Market, does this happen regularly on cars or is this an outlier?$17,500 bid placed by @mhphockey
Additional photos have been added to the gallery showing the B-pillar trim.Hello everyone, and welcome to my auction. This E55AMG is a fantastic car — always maintained properly and always garaged. Everything works as it should, and the condition speaks for itself. I’m happy to answer any questions. At this time, I just need the garage space for something else I have coming and I don't have the heart to park this beauty outside. It's an amazing driving car and it'll be sad to see it go. I'm in Sherman Oaks California if anyone wants to come by and see it in person. Thanks for checking it out and good luck to all bidders!$15,000 bid placed by @1976w123
