My wife has been daily driving a BMW 650i convertible for the past ~3yrs. She was making noise about wanting something with more space, but she wanted to keep it a BMW. It's almost as hard finding a good 5 series wagon as it is an AMG wagon, but I found this 535 wagon online and my buddy bought it at auction for me.





It's a 2010 with the M Sport package. She loves it. I really like the interior/pano roof, will make for nice road trips with our Labs. I swapped her 650 for an M5 for me.

Once my wagon sells I will be without any MBs, but I'm sure it won't be long before I'm back in something from AMG.

I hate kicking tires but man i wish my racetruck would hurry up and sell, thought i was going to have to settle with a e350 but if a current looker will commit i might not. How much snow has it seen?

The 2 winter seasons I drove it were mild, but the car was my DD. I ran the 19s for 9mos and the stock 18s with Blizzaks for 3mos.

Task

Well, I guess I'm going to have to watch this thread as well. I too am interested in finding the right E55 or E63 wagon (on the west coast). I've been looking for the right sports wagon, and these definitely look like the right one.

They are fun "sleepers" to own/drive. Nothing like preying on other supercars

Here is a good video of an E63 Wagon vs. and Audi R8

Damn! I slept on this beast and now the seller removed it from ebay This was probably the only non black estate i would have been happy with.
It looks like someone got the green machine but unfortunately not me.

the E63 wagon is my dream car but I'd like to engage with some actual owners to discover if I am just 'dreaming' or not

What is the actual mileage per gallon, i know it depends but what is a realistic number at say a cruise of my normal 75- 80 mph highway with cruise set.

is the maintenance ridiculous? can I take it to my own mechanic or is it so complex only the dealer can work on it?

thx

Actual mileage on my E55 is mid to high teens in the city and 21-22 on the highway. The E63 should be similar and mileage will depend on how happy your foot is

Maint is not that bad if you can turn your own wrenches or have a good independent shop that can do the work for you.

Start with a car that has a good maint history and has been taken care of, this is more important than anything else. When looking at potential cars, ask the dealer or owner for a Vehicle Maint Inquiry (VMI) to scan the history. Also check the autocheck and carfax reports for possible wreck history.

Guys, i'm new to the boards and funny i came across this post while googling the vin number off of that yellow car.
I am close to finishing the sale of my yellow 05 viper and this car has really caught my eye!
I just can't figure out why it is so expensive??
does anyone know for sure if this car actually was produced yellow?
why would they want so much more for it?
I would be a player on this car in the low 30's but it seems i may have to go with the s65 which is my 2nd choice.

any additional info about this yellow car would be greatly appreciated.
thanks guys!

Welcome
Yes, it was special ordered from the factory that color. 1 of 1 as far as we know. The car was offered for sale for $32,995 in April and the current owner is trying to flip it for a quick buck.

Tracey469

she ain't exactly special. I don't see any mention of nav, nasty scratch on RR, Hankook tires, front valance needs touch up, and I don't see any mention of nav. And I wouldn't even make a phone call unless the mileage issue was clear.
