One of the two rare Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG 2004 in Vietnam, which has been with its previous owner for nearly 20 years, has just been sold to a collector in Ho Chi Minh City. What is special is that this car has only run over 100,000 km and is still in almost perfect condition.
In 2004, Mercedes-Benz Vietnam imported a total of 78 cars to serve the ASEM 5 Conference. Of these, there were exactly 2 S55 AMGs, but currently only one stands out with its high newness. This car is registered with a license plate with four digits 7, becoming a symbol of luxury and class.
The 2004 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG boasts outstanding features not only in design but also in performance. Equipped with a 5.5-liter supercharged V8 engine, up to 493 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque. The S55 AMG delivers powerful performance, surpassing the regular S-Class versions. Improvements in brakes, wheels, and suspension help the car maintain stability and comfort while moving.
With special modifications such as large 14.2-inch disc brakes at the front and the optional Active Body Control suspension, the S55 AMG offers a top-notch driving experience. The “Kompressor” badge on the side of the car is a sign of recognition for this powerful supercharged version.
Currently, the 2004 S55 AMG with the license plate of four 7s has attracted the attention of many enthusiasts and collectors of classic cars. The car is currently for sale for nearly 1 billion VND. This is not a small number for a rare classic car.
The Mercedes-Benz S-Class W220, especially the S55 AMG version, is still considered one of the top luxury sedans, symbolizing luxury and powerful performance. This car line is not only the pride of Mercedes-Benz but also an icon in the luxury car industry, leaving its mark not only in design but also in technology and engine.
