It certainly looks the part. But I didn’t think that we got the W210 E55 estate in the States.

Maybe canada got lucky and had them?

Or someone is trying real hard to be an oddly specific enthusiast

Never offered in the US, maybe Canadian gray market import

Is the conversion deeper than a badge swap? Engine and other bits too?

If it’s just badge and wheels, well who cares. But if the other stuff is included in this ‘phony’ than I don’t wanna be original. COME OVER HERE AND LET ME LOVE YOU

Even if it wasn’t sold in the States, this is a Canadian car. Which means 15 year import law.

Look closely and you’ll see a Japanese-market rear license plate bracket. This car is a JDM grey-market import, and could very well be a 100% authentic E55 AMG wagon as a result. I’ve already seen a few of them imported here.

Plus, that’s a brand-new Manitoba plate which, together with the car’s age, imply that it was imported very recently.

Bumper and exhaust are correct. I vote imported. Where is this, exactly, GPS coordinates please, I need to go steal this right now.

Ten years of JDM imports does that to you...
