E55 Amg is just plain stupid awesome for what it is. The M113k has no business being as easy to upgrade as it is, and you can confirm this by looking at what the all time fastest 0-60 mph Mercedes is on Dragy (Eurocharged E55, FYI). I picked up my 03’ E55 with 94k miles and 600whp for only 13k, and that was amidst this whole market craze. Yes, you’ll deal with the typical old Mercedes nonsense, but parts are plentiful and not-to-expensive, and if you can get past the stupid bug eye benz jokes you have a sleek sleeper sedan that eats snack packs all day long.

I was stationed in Germany for 3 years and they were the best years of my life. While there I married a German woman and got myself an E39 M5 for 5k euro. I so regret selling the car, since it was German specs and would have been expensive to convert to American specs. Anyway because of your videos I started looking around and researching and I got myself into a 2013 Audi RS5 with great mileage for $32k and I love this damn thing.
