Is your S63 AMG sedan a Final Edition?

Just Curios if all W222 S63 AMG are “ Final Editions” with the option code 907, mine is and when I research it I can not find anything on the W222 as a Final Edition except the S65, I was more curious what was different from one that isn’t. Mine was delimited in Germany not sure if that makes it one, any input would be appreciated. It is loaded to the gills option wise ,

The option code on your sheet does not make sense with what is currently in MB's current database for your car as I am looking at the factory data card for that car. So not sure what the reference is in the VMI. If I am looking at the correct data card the car is paint code 183 Magnetite Black.

Option codes are in the early 900s:

902 Front Comfort Seat Heating
903 Rear Comfort Seat Heating
906 Front Heated Rests
907 Rear Heated Rests

Also just noticed that this car was shipped to the US 10/14/2013. Car had pre-delivery inspection around August of 2014 for retail sale. This was one of the first w222 S63 cars shipped to the US. It looks like this car may have been used by MBUSA as a show/exhibition car for the first 6 months of it's existence in the US--you may already know this. Just FYI for what it is worth.

They are referring to heated arm rests on the door panels.

Thanks again MTrauman, nothing made sense with what I had , I did learn one thing if it’s pre delivery in Germany they delimit to 186 mph front what I understand any AMG shipped to US won’t go over 155 mph , some green thing they signed with Germany.

Your welcome.

I disagree with your delimited statement. I believe your statement was true many many years ago but not for the w222 (‘14-20 S63s). Atleast for my ‘19 S63 AMG. I did do Euro Delivery a year ago but when I ordered the car I was told they increase the limit for all S63s shipped to the US. Below is a pic from the current MBUSA website stating it limits at 186mph. I have had my car up to 186—the Autobahn is sweet and I am probably the only American that received a speeding ticket on the Autobahn. I love my ‘19 S63. It is a beast.

Guess it was old info , I was going off what Tech told me when I got that printout , maybe when 4.0 came out they changed, why would it say de limited as a option, , you going to pick it up in Germany makes you way more knowledgeable than most techs. Thanks for straightening me out

In the US, MBUSA configures the S63 with the Drivers Package as a standard option (not discussed in the US). Below I have a couple of pics that shows the configuration of the S63 on the German configure website. German’s have to pay 2200+ Euros for the increase from 250 KMH to 300 KMH while in the US it is the standard configuration.
