[JAB12]

Came across this listing, price is innocent? Could this be a scam or is it legit? Would not know how to spot that on German ebay.

VIN: WDB1240361B503579 forum search showed no results for this VIN/FIN.

VIN wont tell you anything. I see some fake AMG items on that car as well. You would need to see the AMG stamp on the engine block to know for sure if it has a 6.0l motor. Also see no mention of it being a E60, aside from the badging.

Looks like badges only. Possibly, but very unlikely, to be a 6.0L engine and the seller not know about it.

Note the lack of AMG decals on the valve cover.

The Mercedes strips were replaced with the AMG logo OR no logo was used at all.

2nd picture shows a pre face lift E60, converted via the ala carte program. If you want to go back even further, this is what AMG did on the SL500 for their SL60
