Used 2001 Mercedes Benz E55 AMG for sale in VA

2001 Mercedes E55 AMG For Sale.

Drives good, recently just took a trip to Florida and back for the holidays and the car gave me zero issues. One of the last true AMG cars from Mercedes. I bought this in 2020 as I always admired these cars, starting working to bring it back into the condition I wanted it to be. Honestly a very solid car and I would say it's an original survivor, it will need some work to finish it. But all body pieces are in tact with no serious defects. The next step for me however was to deal with the wheel well rust and probably let someone do a paint correction, I'd say the paint is the worst part about this car, it just shows it's age. Mechanically it's very strong and the only thing I would be doing next is the valve cover gaskets. It's driven occasionally but I got other vehicles and projects so it's probably time for someone else to finish it.
