E55 owner here (saloon). Try it again when the temperature is around 10degrees Celsius outside. These engines really run better when its cold outside due to the supercharger. Mine is still limited to 255kph but im glad to see it can go that fast even stock! These are awesome cars and as you mentioned, you have a bit of fun, then go home in total confort

What a beautiful car 😍I'm looking for about 4 months now to buy a good E55AMG Kombi, but until now I haven't found a good one, but I definitely will buy a car like yours in the near future. But I do have a few questions: - Which model of radio/Aftermarket Command did you install? - Are the brakes at the front the standard E55 brakes, or the ones from the E63? - Do you plan to upgrade the power? Thx in advance and kind regards from Germany 🇩🇪, Philipp

@AutoTopNL, I strongly recommend changing the intake air temp sensor on your car. I have a near identical car, right down to the interior and exterior colors though mine is a 2006, and it gets to 285 much quicker than yours did in the video. Never had the room to go past that, but speeds were still climbing pretty quick when I hit 285. Changing the Intake Air Temp (IAT) sensor was a huge performance boost on my car. They degrade over time and start reading higher temps than actual, which causes the car to pull a little timing out of the engine and reduce power. It's a cheap part, and a 15 minute DIY with nothing more complicated than a screwdriver.

Amazing how quiet and calm it was at that speed

Hi Max, please check top speed of E63 AMG (W211). And if possible 100-200. I think it can do 312+ easily.

It seems to me that everyone who has commented was born after 2000 and has read little about cars, because this car has always been a beast since its creation and the trajectory of most European sports cars is its stability, maintenance and reliability over time, this speed does not surprise me and more than that the car is in very good shape

I miss mine !! I remember putting my foot down at 100mph, slight rain and the traction control came on! ... epic engine, had no problems what so ever from 70-100,000 miles.

I think the E55 AMG makes a lot more sense than the 599 GTB for blasting down the Autobahn.

I have a 2004 as well, ill NEVER sell this car... I have 120k miles on mine, my rear air suspension just went recently. Not a cheap fix unless you put coils on. I still have that same smile on my face every time i drive this car. Absolutely love it. I definitely recommend picking up a E55, they are tourqe monsters! Funnest car ive ever owned... They have that timeless look too **Lets also not forget... This was the FASTEST SEDAN IN THE WORLD for a couple years*** 👍

Absolutely brilliant! I love the W211 Mercedes design and the E55 AMG Estate is just the best of the best! Thank you for posting this awesome video. I really enjoyed it!

Hope you go for the E55 its a simpler more reliable engine. No variable timing no double overhead no nothing. Just a good old V8 which they used in W210 amg as well. They Just put some beefier internals, lowered the compression and slapped a fucking blower on it! Can be tuned to around 700hp/1100nm on stock internals and blower if you go that route. And the 5 speed is rated to 1083nm if I recall correctly. Whereas the E63 W211 has a 7 speed which is rated to 750nm

A monster. An absolute beast of a car. Dressed in suit and tie. A Mercedes driver myself (2015 C400 estate) I’m in awe here. I want one!!! 😀

amazing real sound of the proper V8
