actually he already replaced all the components that regularly fail on these cars, and he did it him self. The drivetrain itself is indestructible, only issues that may come up would be some random sensors, and there not too hard to source for cheaper than direct through mercedes.

I have a C55 same motor just N/A and a few different internals higher compression and no supercharger and plan to pull my m113 and drop in a m1113k (E55) Motor. I was quoted $8k full complete swap and they are providing the motor and anything else needed still being able to pass emissions. C55 is more reliable ( less E class crap that can break) C55 is 600lbs lighter but really will come out to 500lbs with added S/C E55 is 4000-42000lbs Each car will make 700HP and torque with simple mods as explained in this video. The transmission is exactly the same in both cars and is bulletproof. You could make 800+ (In a 4 door Mercedes with this motor for around 15k - stock HP 500 + $2500ish mods you're 700+ HP RELIABLE horsepower. Compare that to a C63 that weighs 4000lbs and has just over 500hp N/A motor, so no mods. C63's range from $25k-70 (and you pay tons of money if you get one with gremlins, that only the Dealer can fix for thousands. C55s range from ragged out 5-7k and nice well taken care of 9k to 11k. E55s range 15k-20k. HP per $1 spent either way, the C55 with it being 500lbs lighter , same power (w/ the swap) and has the same transmission, also better suspension. I can say cause I have driven a C32, 2 C55s one of which I currently own, and a family members E55 with some light mods. and screw the $10k kleemann supercharger and $3k headers, RIP OFFF for the C55 with 13k I could make 800+ with a modded and turned m113k swap probably less even. AND THE M113 PISTONS COMPRESSION IS NOT FOR BOOST, SO BYE BYE TO YOUR MERCEDES AND 10S OF THOUSANDS IN MODS. I was not overly impressed when I drove the E55 or overwhelmed like people make it out to be, stcok these two run a 13.1 and 12.8 1/4 mile jUST WANTED TO ADD SOME INPUT, The E55 in maintained condition even with 200k miles will drive like new and provide you with insane 500 hp. I can't understand why they are so cheap?

Hnnnnnggg. I've recently fallen in love with the E55 and you pretty much have the exact spec I'd want. Strong color like black or white, lip spoiler, fancy seats and the sunroofs are a must. Also those wheels are pure porn. I personally would go for a louder exhaust, maybe a butterfly valve will fix that.

My Dad owned a 2004, S55 AMG. It was the only car that would put a huge foolish smile on my face, and even on the faces of the passengers, every time I would floor it. I called it a point-and-shoot car, because it did exactly that when being driven on the highway. You'd find a gap in traffic, 'squeeze' the accelerator, and it would fill that gap almost instantly. I even had highway patrol officers wanting to run with me on the highway, just so that they could hear the exhaust note coming out the back (they were all good about it. Thumbs up after a short run too!). It's an iconic sedan. Period. Nothing comes close to it of its time. It was a family sedan with performance out of a nightmare horror movie! Even 911's would get out of the way when they'd see me pull up behind them on the highway in the fast lane. The Kleeman compressor was the icing on the cake for that car; a bolt-on supercharger that would push it up to 600bhp. A great car if you're a DIY mechanic. Otherwise, forget owning that car. The repair costs are through the ROOF (including parts)! But if you shop around, you can find great aftermarket parts that keep them running in tip top shape. If you run that car hard, it will require regular inspection and maintenance. It's a sedan that keeps on giving! Great buy! Lucky you! (I'm now a new subscriber)

Similar to you I also have a fondness towards the WS6, and have been searching for a clean red 2002. Keep up the great work.
