Purchased a 19 E53 AMG yesterday. Will pick it up on Thursday. Loaded with all the options. Red is okay but will probably get it wrapped. Looking forward to interacting with the community.
Congrats, and welcome to the forum. What were some of the decisions of getting this beauty? Again, congrats

I was looking at the F82 M4 and the RS5 but the E53 offered more value for the price. A 19 M4 was still in the upper 40k price range in my area. Same with the RS5 if not higher. Not many E53s AMGs in my area (if any). Was able to get this one for $40k, added in the 4/48k extended warranty, (50k on the odometer), tax and tags came to a little under $45k.
Option’s include heated, cooled seats, HUD, Blind Spot Monitor, Lane Departure Warning, Adaptive Cruise, Emergency Brake, along with the usual features. No reported accidents, one owner. I think the red color is what kept it out there for so long.
Wow! Nice deal..Those RS5 are sweet too, but the M3 is a bit to small for me. Awesome choice, and fine looking ride. Any plans for add-ons?

Right off top, the wrap and 20 inch wheels. Looking at a front lip and side skirts but wanna see what it will looks like after the wrap and wheels. Black out the badges. HP is enough for me at the moment but maybe later this summer, a tune. And definitely window tint
Update!! Been doing some work on her. Blacked out the grill and rear trim (plasti dipped) and black wheels to come next week. And need to wrap the door handles black. Original trim Blacked out emblems and trunk badge. Side enblems done as well. Front grill and lower grills blacked out. Wheels to come on Tuesday!! And for ticket protection. Lol
Will post the finished product after the door handles and wheels are put on next week!!
Welcome to the forum Mjay,
I also recently picked up a E53 and new to the thread. I will be watching your build as well and interested in knowing what front lip and kits you may add.
I realy like the look and agressiveness of the E63 front lip. I am woundering if it can be added to the e53, despite them being different.
'20 E53, coupe, Brilliant Blue, fairly loaded. Options i wish i has was PE, HUD.
mods: panamara blacked out grill - amazon, MCARCAR kit E400carbon fober front bumper air vent outlet covers - amazon.
Todo:
Window tint, chin spoiler and side skirt, rear spoiler, maybe exhaust, black out rear emblems. Maybe use the black chrome emblems from amg CLE 53. Wrap front grill bezel and emblem circle in gloss black. 19" wheel and all season tire package - winter time.
No tune due to warranty. Tried piggyback on E450 last year but threw codes/Limp mode and didnt want to break engine so i pulled it and sent back.
