The 2006 Mercedes-Benz E500 was powered by a 5.0-liter V8 engine that produced 302 horsepower. The engine was linked to a seven-speed automatic designed for more fuel-efficient driving and better acceleration. It came with the Touch Shift feature, which enabled the driver to upshift and downshift manually

The E Class is the Perfect car. It comes in 2 options, Rear Wheel drive and my favorite 4 MATIC. Smooth ride, handling and features are all First Class.

This 2006 model was better than I expected. Sat on the road better than the reviews, and as I was expecting the POWER was incredible. This is why you buy an E55 w211. Car still looks stylish and has many outside options for upgrades and aftermarket tunes as well. The features still can be used today such as parktronics, push start etc... Hard to find them clean for good numbers, but the car itself is as good as it comes. For the power, features, and stability it’s under valued. Glad I own one finally!

"Keyless Go" button stopped working and I don't want to put the money in to fix it. Black Ash wood appointments are pretty classy. Pretty good gas mileage. The car is very sticky on the road. It corners wonderfully, even at speed.

Great car. I drive it every day and it makes my commute fun. It has only needed windshield repairs due to rocks on the road. Beautiful inside and out. The gas milage on the highway is about 25mpg, less in town. I have the 4matic and it is solid and easy to handle on snow and rain. This car appears expensive, but has been quite reasonable to care for and maintain.
