Jesus christ. 562 is ridiculous and would bring a smile to my face daily.


What mods did you settle with? EvoSport?

I think its awsome and love the way they look. I have an R500 and if I had the money at the time I would have gotten the R63. I still beat a lot of people who dont expect a "minivan/station wagon" to go that fast. I can only imagine what the 63 does. Am going to search out some performance goodies for mine now that the warranty is up.

R63 is like my favorite car. theres an online mercedes learning course where the guy leading it says "if you ever want to load up 5 of your closest friends and go Vette hunting, this is the car you want." well sumthin really similar to that, i'll see if i can find it again

I was given a 3 month wait but received the plate in a month and a half. It takes a bit.

I saw a black R63 on University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor earlier this week. The 63s sound amazing. Unfortunately, right after he passed me he got pulled over by a cop. I don't know what he did because I wasn't paying attention to what he was doing earlier.

M-B sold like 8 R's last month, lol.

Well deserved as it's a hideous vehicle IMO and M-B needs to learn to not dilute the brand so much.

If someone considers to buy a R63 ..i guess it's okay,,,,with him mabe ...yet if u want a family car + sporty just buy a C63 Estate or something in that direction and u'll have all the options...let's get serious

it's rare model u say?..well yeah cause it's hardly known a benz lover to buy that coffin...just my thought..even the black burial benz car from churches is prettier ;-))

Hey Gangrun,
I actually kinda like it. Was hoping I could convince my wife to get one, but no such luck. She called it a "penismobile", whatever THAT means. Noticed in your profile you list occupation as Doc(dad). So are you a physician? Not too bad accomplishment at 17!
Congrats on both!

Pretty tough talk from a guy that drives a mediocre CLK...

The R63 whips sports cars and is a sleeper. If I could find a nice black one with low, i'd snap it up.

Im not sure your one to be judging cars... That Fiat is hideous, and the R would do circles around it.

I just read this whole thread... very interesting crowd you are!

It seems like it's a complete 50/50 split between liking it and disliking it.

I think it's badass, and spifffs - that R63 in your signature is SICK NASTY!

thanks oxygen, you'd be surprised, even though in this forum its 50/50 split, when i pull up to a valet or anywhere where they know cars, i get 10 times more compliments for my R than my black series, just yesterday a guy came up to me and said, ive seen 3 Bugatti's in my life and NEVER an R63, thats pretty cool when people in Newport Beach CA have seen more 2.5 million dollar cars than a kick *** merc van!!!

what sports cars? ISF, m3, m5, CTSV, e63, c6 vette (not even a z06) all cheaper and all better looking and all will smoke this thing. well except the e63... c63 will beat it too and its cheaper

sorry if i ruined someones party, but this thing is a minivan trying to be an SUV, not even a crossover imo. just ugly

I don't know what I'd rather have less, a 5 GT or an R-Class.

An R63 would be quite the Frankenstein though, I must admit, yet certainly not for me.

I just caught a ride in a R63 and was actually impressed. All the seats including the third row are comfortable (unlike even the top of the line SUVs). Lot's of power just like any other MBZ 63 series. Handling is not as crisp, but good for something as big as it is. If you need to hauling six people in comfort for a long distance and don't want to spend all your time in the slow lane (like the I-5 grapevine) this is as good as it gets. Beside if you also have a CLK63BS, you can always jump in that for an aggressive drive.
