Rarely does Mercedes-Benz AMG get mentioned when you're talking about having the most fun with a car priced at $25,000 or less. But in this Car & Driver video, the 1999 E55 makes the cut. Here's an excerpt of what they say on the video, which can be viewed below:
One hundred and eighty-three thousand. That’s how many miles have been rolled up on the odometer of the 1999 E55 AMG currently owned by Bryan English. English has driven the hell out of the big Benz, accruing all but 16,000 of those miles since purchasing the car in 2003. His E55 feels extremely tight and is in exceptional condition despite the high mileage, a testament to how well English takes care of his ride as well as to the Germans who built it. Squeaks and rattles are nonexistent, and the Mercedes dealers and independent specialists we’ve spoken with characterize the W210 E55 as bulletproof.
The AMG Mercedes-Benz E55 is the fifth car in the video:

The 2008 Mercedes-AMG C63 AMG will be arriving at dealerships across Canada in May. The 2008 C63 AMG makes its debut with the signature AMG 6.2 litre V8 engine that produces 451-hp and 443 lb-ft. of torque. Top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h, while its 0-100 km/h time is 4.5 seconds. Introduced on the C63 AMG, the AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7-Speed Automatic Transmission includes a new double de-clutching feature on downshifts to maintain vehicle balance during cornering, while delivering shift times up to 50 percent faster than previously. The exterior of the C63 AMG differs significantly from other C-Class models with a unique hood (with power domes), widened front fenders and a special front fascia and numerous other components not shared with any C-Class model.
New Model Priced At $63,500
The C63 AMG is the ultimate expression of the AMG philosophy, providing benchmark engine performance along with outstanding handling characteristics. The C63 AMG will contribute to the continued success of the all-new C-Class line-up and has all the attributes to dominate in terms of performance, handling, luxury, value and price. Available in Canadian Mercedes-Benz dealerships in early May, the new C63 AMG will be priced at $63,500.
AMG V8 Power for the C-Class
One of the most powerful naturally aspirated production V8s ever, the 6.2-litre AMG engine boasts a wealth of exciting features derived from AMG’s highly successful racing efforts.
