E53 Cabrio Question


Hello all, I just ordered an E53 cabrio for my wife and they just told us we are not able to order the RTZ rim. Has anyone encountered this issue and would you know why? Thanks for any input you could provide.

I hope not. That’s the wheel I’m planning to order.

Have not heard anything else, the dealer wants me to order the multispoke option. my Maserati is going back in 2 months and need to make a decision very soon.

Try a different dealer and see if it's available. Sometimes production times on things like wheels (availability) force you to wait much longer than necessary to make a deal. There was a production problem with HUD on my E450 CAB that I had to forgo, in order to make my trade in deal work. Just didn't have the time to wait additional months to get it.

Sometimes you have to wait months and months to get certain options you want. Is this the case, or is your dealer telling you that it can't be gotten at all?

These limited wheel choices depending on model, AMG or Avantgarde, summer or all season, 4matic or not drives me crazy. If I'm willing to pay extra, why can't I have any wheel I want?

Your not missing much with the HUD, I very rarely use mine, I find it kind of distracting.

With all the information on the new digital dash, in hindsight I have to agree.

They had stated due to supply issues the only wheels available are the 20 inch multi spoke. I stated I wasn't happy and asked for them to figure out. We will see.
