My GLE63 is at the dealer - pciking up on Saturday

take it to the track and see how it does..haha

Yeh - I recommend you consider getting Wheel+Tire coverage - your wheel design - with brushed finish - can oft require wheel replacement if you get a scrape..

PeterUbers 04-28-2016 03:30 AM

Yeah, watch out for this

Yeah me too. Glad mine wasnt on that truck.

I will add the Wheel and Tire package. Good call. What $ can I expect for that? $2k?

johnnyderm 04-28-2016 05:11 PM

I paid $1299 for 5yr unlimited miles wheel tire on my new 2014 e63s... Already claimed $600 in damages and it's been worth it

Picked up the 63 - OMG it is bonkers! I know I am breaking it n but i had to downshift once to 4500rpm to hear the crack and HOLY MOLY the exhaust (peformance) is BONKERS.

Full - in depth - new post to come. But god damn - I LOVE it so far. Putting 200 miles on her tomorrow. 50+ so far. Then next week ill do a 440mile form NYC to VT and back. I will update you all on along the way. I am more than impressed. Adaptive steering assist is sweeeeeeeet! HK sound system is great too. No need to upgrade. Plenty of range.

Ok ill stop - stoked.

Please post pics - big congrats. Break her in gently.

I didnt take many photos since I was smiling driving fast. Breaking it in gently but hard not to go nuts in Sport+. 744 miles to go in break in. I am surprised at how bad ass the car looks on the exterior. I will take photos on my Leica this weekend in Vermont - hopefully these will show off the car better than my iphone.

The Carbon in the interior is significant and large. There's so much. Way more than the X5M I almost went with. The comfort mode is top notch, something the x5m couldnt offer - it was so stiff and the seats uncomfy.

I gotta tell you - the massage on my 100 mile drive from philly to nyc was a nice was to keep y back moving. It's not annoying, just nice to keep loose.

Can't wait to write a full review.

The 450 coupe is BAD ASS though. Not a cost thing. It's amazing. I see them in manhattan and they look evil. So wide. I'd delable it and remove the 450. If I didnt need the space I might be in a coupe. But my sports and travel need space.

make sure they don't ruin the GLE 63 and drill the front plate in that beautiful bumper! what a beautiful GLE, it looks so aggressive.

johnnyderm 05-03-2016 10:49 AM

Ha no I will not be. I am trying to find a Tow plate that wont block my sensors. And if I use it... we will see.

If anyone has one that works please share that info.

Count Laszlo 05-03-2016 10:56 AM

Stunning rig, congats! Total beast.

BACnMercedes 05-04-2016 05:57 PM

That looks good. Congratulations! Those wheels are nice too. I've got to find me some better ones!

johnnyderm 05-05-2016 08:53 AM

BACn - check these out? https://www.elementwheels.com/prodde...ace-d7072010gm

BACnMercedes 05-05-2016 09:13 AM

Nice! I will save that site. (Unfortunately I just paid a gaggle on a roof box that says "mercedes" on it. When instead I should have just bought a regular thule box and changed the stickers. FYI, MB is still selling the older style mount boxes which are a pain in the butt to mount.)

Kwando 05-06-2016 12:51 PM

Very nice! I'm picking my 350 up next week.

sonictuning 06-10-2016 05:52 PM

OMG - I am in love with your car!!! That Carbon Fiber pieces are huge!!!

I've been slowly eyeing a switch....debating whether I should go AMG or not.....
