mrhobbz Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 I am wondering with the eclectic group of folks we have here if anyone has experience with these cars? I am going to look st an 05 C55 AMG this weekend and have absolutely no knowledge on anything Mercedes. Is there anything specifically I should be on the lookout for?

ImUrOBGYN Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Been watching Fifth Gear? They talked a bit about this car (I think it was this one) in episode 6 of this season. They brought up 3 'affordable' AMG's. Season 23, Episode 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moe7 Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I looked into them briefly.. Motor mounts seemed to wear out quickly, but otherwise pretty solid My main concern would be maintenance costs for that engine, can't imagine them being easy to work on in that platform.
