My new S63

I just took delivery of a new S63.

It is Black/black with the black piano wood interior, iPod integration, distronic plus, Panorama roof, Premium III, Performance 030, and rear seat package.

Hopefully, I will soon have it broken in and driving it like it was built to be driven.

Thumbs up

Congratulations, it is very nice. Check the manual thought I think it says that you shall keep it under 4500 RPM for the first 1500 Km for the engine to treat you well along.

Watch it for cops they have nothing to do but playing with Radar guns in Austin as I still remember.

Looks like great minds think alike. I've got the same options minus the distronic plus. When I had it in my 2007 S600, I played with it one time just to see it work, It's Great, but for some reason I just can't seem to trust a life or death decision to electronics
I've got 500 miles on mines, I'm dying to push this thing to the limit, but soon enough I will.

I love the smoked tail lights on your car. It sets it off just right.

Have you been happy with the ECU upgrade?

Congratulations on S63!

Drive it hard, do not worry about break in. The harder your drive it, the faster it will be.

I am developing performance parts for 63, check out this thread:
