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

Hallo max! Ik rijd privé een Audi S6 Limo uit 2004. Ik ben geïnteresseerd in de radio in uw Mercedes. Kun je me vertellen welk model dat is? Erg bedankt.
There's a reason for that. Those high powered estates are the typical company cars for sales representatives who basically live on the autobahn. If you're driving up to 1000km a day, it does matter if you're driving 130kph or 200kph.
@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.
I have one of these in a saloon variant and its amazing. I have had an M140, F80 M3, C63 and can honestly say that the E55 is my all time favourite, such a great all round car. A true AMG masterpiece.
@@sm51259 impossible. he came from a roll, lower speed, and would need far more road, also RS six looked like he was over 200+, so no chance. and RS SIX IS quicker, as E55 is older and less power. E55 is wonderful for a 17/18 old car.
The “Oh it’s works!” feeling when the keyless start worked !! 😂😂😂 MAX I can relate! Lol it’s such a blessing when it does, makes you feel futuristic in such a classic car.
Back when AMG was quite exclusive and beginning to release monster power and torque engine. Far more reliable motor compared to the 6.2 that replaced it.
the reliability of the 6.2 is not given the credit it deserves. Despite a few things that really aren't dealbreakers, the 6.2 is actually very reliable.
Legend! I remember we drove 326km/h on the speedo in France with my dads E63 AMG 6.2. It was a saloon with also no top speed limiter. He lost his license after that and he was not allowed to drive in the France for several years XD
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*** 👍
Had mine on the track recently. After a 10 minute heat it was almost all N/A power after that. Boost kept coming and going. Realised pretty quickly it was heatsoak. Heard it can happen relatively easily even when stock (which mine is) But It happened faster than i would think. Also another guy at the same event with E55 came to me and asked if it was cutting power. Yup.. hahah
@@Raknasma The m113k has a magnet clutch on the superchargerpulley. The clutch engages if it's needed, but it doesn't engage when the intake temperature is too hot. The most simple thing is too add a different and smaller pulley without a clutch. Then the charger can spin faster and is always ready to boost your engine. Also better cooling is essential.
@@frz_64 cooling is expensive, also hard to mod. I'd rather get a race chip and increase rev limit on low boost to force the additional power even when the turbo cuts out
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.
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!
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
Insane, so quiet and stable @300kph.. what a beautiful car. And it can keep up even with very quick cars from today, really impressive how fast it is on „stock“ power.
the design for me is the best ever , i love the design from 2004 , i was a kid when i first saw it and now i have kids and i still love this design , i hope one day i can park an e55 or e63 in my garage its a goal
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
It's funny, always waited for you to test drive one. I saw a few w212 amgs and I saw a w211 6,2 amg but no E55. Then next thing I see. You bought one! And keeps pumping out videos of it. Love it

I've also done 273kmh (I'm American, so I'm converting to KMH) in a buddies Viper driving, it's definitely no comparison.
It's a Mercedes benz that kind of speed is what aeroplanes are flying in the air for the car to be stable at that speed is incredible honestly I love the Germany technology especially on the Mercedes ❤ 😎
I know I was still and quiet and concentrating when I hit 163 verified but you being able to talk and think about other stuff while doing that is mental. You are a fucking madman in the best way possible. It’s just so crazy what we can get used to.
Love the AMG 55 even in saloon or sedan form went in one it had alot of balls just wish they didn't replace the kompressor for turbo just love that linear power delivery there is a channel I follow it's called legit Street cars he has one the same he did a trans mod unit on it to give the automatic transmission better shift and response it's just plug and play that simple you should give it a try
I support you, Max, in every word. W113k is the legend in any body. This e55 is the right choice as your 599 and f12. Good luck, bro! Waiting for new video.
Wish I had one of these. I'd take the sedan tho. Nonetheless it's a super practical, comfy and big car but can be driven very fast and sporty. Love the all around character of it. 00s was a great Era for amg
This is for real the best looking Estate of all time!! Such a timeless Design. S211 one of the best Mercedes i think, after the W124. I have a Estate E350 with the AMG Packet. Also in Silver, loving it deeply. You feel like you sit in your living room so smooth it is. And 272hp from 3,5 liters without a turbo is crazy for me and drive like a charm. Buy one people you never regret it.
I had an ‘03 CL55 with the same motor. Sold it due to the headaches of the ABC hydrolic suspension. It was an absolute missile on the highway, though. Miss that motor. Bulletproof.
Love the M113k engine I've got a CL55 and a SL55, same engine but totally different cars to drive but the engine just powers you along the road with so much ease Taken my CL to 165mph and the SL to 193 that was enough for me
I wish I could drive there, the speed limit is 110km where I am. I just bought a 2004 E55 with bigger 63mm injectors, LSD, Interchiller & tank, catch can, long tube headers with an intake kit and I must say it gets along okay for a 20 year old car. It goes like a rocket. I very much recommend the mods.
Well get a bigger exhaust and a separate water tank for the intercooler, and better swap that with a bigger ic. A bigger throttle body from the SL600 wouldn't hurt and only after all these, a smaller pulley on the blower
Much respect to the size of your balls. I had a modified CLS55, if I’m honest I sold it because the torque to horsepower ratio was constantly working against traction to get the car going from a start. I switched to a C5 RS6, although not as reliable as the Merc, it puts all of the power down all day long.
I too have an E55 AMG wagon. So far I've done bushings, all 4 air struts, I replaced the HID lenses, and I had to solder the upper interior temperature thermistor for heat to work properly (common). Not too bad for an older vehicle. My massaging seats and air bladders to appear non functioning at this point, something I'd like to tackle next.
@@BlackTrinity90 I guess you're right but to be able to drive according to traffic circumstances and only have to focus on important things is a pleasure.

It's a Mercedes benz that kind of speed is what aeroplanes are flying in the air for the car to be stable at that speed is incredible honestly I love the Germany technology especially on the Mercedes ❤ 😎
10:06 safety first! 😂😂😂 at 302km/h! However you have steel balls! 💪🏼
Deze auto loopt nog mooier dan een RS6. En eindelijk eens geen pop en bangs aan je hoofd en een brullende uitlaat, maar gewoon rust en stabiliteit.😎
E55 AMG Is a never ending legend 🙌
Es impresionante tu trabajo muchas gracias por compartir con nosotros tu contenido! Cuídate
I know I was still and quiet and concentrating when I hit 163 verified but you being able to talk and think about other stuff while doing that is mental. You are a fucking madman in the best way possible. It’s just so crazy what we can get used to.
I love how easy and effortlessly it gets to these speeds .. and for almost 18 years old vehicle the quality is amazing ….
Does age matter? My 3sgte with 600hp is also from 1992, and thats 30 years old.
Now that’s a nice ride I miss my wagon everyday mine was the w210 e320 with 12 spark plugs it would Cruz at 100mph and still kick down
Love the AMG 55 even in saloon or sedan form went in one it had alot of balls just wish they didn't replace the kompressor for turbo just love that linear power delivery there is a channel I follow it's called legit Street cars he has one the same he did a trans mod unit on it to give the automatic transmission better shift and response it's just plug and play that simple you should give it a try
I support you, Max, in every word. W113k is the legend in any body. This e55 is the right choice as your 599 and f12. Good luck, bro! Waiting for new video.
Wish I had one of these. I'd take the sedan tho. Nonetheless it's a super practical, comfy and big car but can be driven very fast and sporty. Love the all around character of it. 00s was a great Era for amg
This is for real the best looking Estate of all time!! Such a timeless Design. S211 one of the best Mercedes i think, after the W124. I have a Estate E350 with the AMG Packet. Also in Silver, loving it deeply. You feel like you sit in your living room so smooth it is. And 272hp from 3,5 liters without a turbo is crazy for me and drive like a charm. Buy one people you never regret it.
Thank for video. Incredible car. The incredible how much svalutation are. Wonderful design... Power every single second drive. ❤❤❤❤❤
How i love this car, perfect!
I had an ‘03 CL55 with the same motor. Sold it due to the headaches of the ABC hydrolic suspension. It was an absolute missile on the highway, though. Miss that motor. Bulletproof.
What an amazing car. I have the 5 cylinder diesel. 2003. Only 177bhp but it eats up long journeys in comfort.
What a beast ! and thank u AutoTopNL for stay true to the content of the channel and not go for the crazy tik tok clickbaits from nowadays ♥
you have great taste in cars, the fast Mercs of this era are incredible
What an absolute epic car! Currently in the market to buy a W212 E63s for this exact reason, Effortless high speed cruising in comfort.
Love the M113k engine I've got a CL55 and a SL55, same engine but totally different cars to drive but the engine just powers you along the road with so much ease
Taken my CL to 165mph and the SL to 193 that was enough for me
Loved this video, I have the face lifted E63s AMG w212 station wagon and I love it to bits, so brutal 😎
One of my dream cars for many reasons
One of my favorite type of cars. Solid 300 km/h + there, and space for familly.
293 gps in a 17 yr old Stock car is insane. Great engineering
An amzing car, an amazing driver. Keep it up!
Insane! This cars will be more reare in next time! Hold it in good hands! 👍
The way you said "already past the limiter" was like Doc Brown describing how something works
I wish I could drive there, the speed limit is 110km where I am.
I just bought a 2004 E55 with bigger 63mm injectors, LSD, Interchiller & tank, catch can, long tube headers with an intake kit and I must say it gets along okay for a 20 year old car. It goes like a rocket.
I very much recommend the mods.
Love the Mercedes man, I'm a fan of it :))
AMG POWER!!!🔥🔥💪💪💪🔥🔥
So thoughtful of Mercedes to make it so that when you crash you are already in a hearse to the graveyard.
What a car you have, Max, congrats 😍😍👍❤️
Awesome! Now please please do the same with a derestricted stock E60 M5 V10!
Well get a bigger exhaust and a separate water tank for the intercooler, and better swap that with a bigger ic. A bigger throttle body from the SL600 wouldn't hurt and only after all these, a smaller pulley on the blower
Amazing. Just might have to buy one of these for myself. Thanks for the review.
It’s amazing how small is the loss between speedometer and gps. Even in my w211 which has 976k in 200kmh speedometer the gps is 195.
Much respect to the size of your balls. I had a modified CLS55, if I’m honest I sold it because the torque to horsepower ratio was constantly working against traction to get the car going from a start.
I switched to a C5 RS6, although not as reliable as the Merc, it puts all of the power down all day long.
Can you imagine how crazy this would have been new, absolutely stunning, incredible car, thank you for the content
That GA-2100SKE-7AER looks awesome
I too have an E55 AMG wagon. So far I've done bushings, all 4 air struts, I replaced the HID lenses, and I had to solder the upper interior temperature thermistor for heat to work properly (common). Not too bad for an older vehicle. My massaging seats and air bladders to appear non functioning at this point, something I'd like to tackle next.
Go on Autobahn and get instantly overtaken by an RS6 with 300km/h. Welcome to Daily Business in Germany haha
Yes, wonderland if you ask me!
@@SViip Great to live here. But its mostly too much Traffic, so u cant go on top Speed safely.
@@BlackTrinity90 I guess you're right but to be able to drive according to traffic circumstances and only have to focus on important things is a pleasure. Drove through Germany in 2020, really enjoyed that. Got a speeding ticket outside Hamburg on A1 (didn´t spot the speed trap but got a letter a couple of weeks later, don´t know what to expect when returning to Germany), do the Germans ever let it go?
In Sweden for an example you have to watch out for speed traps all the time. Or obey the law which is not an option when it comes to speeding :)
@@SViip i got 2 Tickets in the last 3 weeks haha. And always in Situations wheres not necessary to made a Speed Limit.. anyway.. the First i even didnt noticed, suprised 2 weeks later by the letter. Well, If u dont payed ur Ticket till yet, the Police will take it from u If they stop u, and it will be more expensive. Idk how long it will be last in their systems, but definitely a few years 😅
@@BlackTrinity90 Does your speeding tickets add points on your license which can end in a ban?
Well, I guess I have to be prepared to pay next time I visit Germany. Do you know if it's the figure in the last letter I have to pay or will there be additional cost when the polizei have to grab the money from your hand so to speak?
What a car Max! 🔥👍🇳🇱
Grew up in Germany in the eighties and on many trips in our Ascona 2.0s remember big 7 series and Benzes going past and 16V Golf's doing 220 with everyone else trundling along about 100.Great Lane discipline,you can't go fast for very long in an electric for sure.
