I have 03 s55 amg, bought it like 4 years ago spend about 2,500 in part repair I do it myself, really it not hard working in the car especially went u have KZread on hands!!! Some guy have experience not expecting the power of my car and get smoked , super happy felling!!!😊😎
Nice ride, I have a 2003 S55 AMG (Silver) and I love it!
You should put this S55 AMG cruising on the freeway not parking in your drive way. This S55 needs four new tires, new rotors and new brake pads. Have you even change the engine and cabin air filters? Don’t forget oil change with new filter, flush power steering and brake fluids. You also need to flush the transmission fluid for smooth ride. Have you even replaced the car battery inside the trunk. If you have done all of those replacements, this car will cruise smoothly on freeways.
I took a study break and watched this video, thanks for sharing what your AMG S55 is like, Jeff! I like German cars myself as well (own an ‘05 3-series 325i BMW) but also like me a good Mercedes-AMG! Now can you show us a video of you doing a 0-60 mph and 0-100 mph test with this car on the Highway? 👀 🏎 💨
Great video, and really great car I really miss those days when cars weren't produced like space ships with bunch of screens inside.
wow can't believe u have one my favorite professor just became alot cooler
Beautiful car my friend. I’m looking at a 2004 with about 124k on the odometer. The owner pretty much kept it stock but did lots of preventative maintenance on it. I have a 1997 w140 S600 which I have own for about 2 years now and it only has 130,000 miles on it. I Love the v12 but I want something more modern with power. Great video and looking forward to more future videos. Take care my friend.
i have a regular w220 and i would never change it i can imagine driving the s55 i call it an airplane......
Not an AMG but I have an S500 4-Matic I owned for about 2 years now and did the AMG package mod to it which was a rare combo with 4-Matic, next im debating on if i should do the 55 mufflers, loved the video, glad to see people still admiring this gen S Classes!
Why didn't you pop the hood?
Would you recommend it for highway travel? I am trying to look for a car in the Houston area, cheap and that lasts for long..

Best highway car ever. It will pass everything on the road.
I’ve never seen a stock S55 do 11.8 in the quarter mile, but ok. Most are in the mid to high 12’s.

Yeah, no way in hell this is an 11 sec car. The E55 wasn’t. This is a 12.5-13.0 sec car
How is the ABC suspension and the locking system? Also, are you the original owner or the second or third?
how much did it cost to have your wheels redone? I have an '03 S55, and would like to get rid of the chromed out wheels.

Is the maintenance expensive? I want one, BAD

if you can do basic maintenance yourself like oil changes, fluids , tie rods , bushings etc it's not expensive to maintain they have a bulletproof engine and transmission the biggest issue could be the ABC system and many people when that goes bad chose to replace with coilovers not as versatile and comfortable but definitely cheaper , electronic gremlins also are a pain in the ass but usually not expensive top repair or even ignore lol
you still have it?

No way! You are way off the mark!
Camera system??? No 0-60 less than 5 sec? Ahhh No 4 inches leg room with seat all the way back??? Guess my screen is dirty looked like half inch Other points No rear entertainment dvd? No recline rear seat? No adjustment lumbar in rear seat Out dated audio??? The Bose system in that car sounds better then my BMW or Maseriti You did get something right. The car is extremely expensive to maintain in perfect order
