Price is too good to be true. Place my bet that its likely a fake ad.
There was also an E46 m3 today for $2700. I didn't post it because I'm not an idiot and it's obviously fake.

Some people on this thread need to use a bit of common sense and quit posting obviously fake ads on every page

It's cheap because it's a basic bitch 6spd manual with higher kms from a shop with very little brand reputation and there is the perception that these cars cost a fair bit to keep running between throttle body related stuff and the possibility of rod bearing issues.

With the manual 08's, make sure the clutch has been updated when the kms get higher. Huge cost to replace since they have to update to the 09-12 clutch, which isn't just a simple swap. Can be $$$

That rear plate mount seems to be on every JDM car. That’s what I usually look for. Seems like a stupid way but I haven’t seen it be wrong yet.

Lol i love how people discredit a Benz or Beemer just cause its JDM. You know it's still made in Germany right? Just go get it inspected and see for yourself

Point to be made - overall people take much better care of cars in Japan than they do here. And yes, I speak this from experience

I drove one recently, fairly low km around 100k. Wow, did it not feel good. It looked in just fine condition, but it’s just how Mercedes of that era are. I always liked that car so it was sort of a ‘don’t meet your hero’ situation. Suspension was soft, steering vague, it felt like things are just waiting to break. The next e55 is leagues better.

Just my opinion though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't even think they sold 99 e55 in canada. I'd say most of the ones you see for sale are jdm, they're just cheap and plentiful over there. I'd consider it a bit of a red flag that the ad doesn't mention its from Japan

1. AMGs are not cheap anywhere, and in Japan these E55s still go for 250,000-350,000 yen (3 - 4,2K).
2. Definitely not plentiful

Do you think cars are free there or something? lol christ
