That is great to hear, if you had bought an E55, I think that you would have more issues by now. The E55 and M113K engine is more complex, then our M156 NA engines. I absolutely love my E63 so much a bought another one, long story.

i was trying to buy an E55, I love superchargers and well this E63 landed in my lap for less than the E55s I was looking at and man I am not upset at all with my purchase.

An E55 is for someone that prefers modifications, an E63 is for that person that chooses not to modify there car. If someone was to modify their E63, you could get a Weistec Supercharger, put headers or exhaust but that's pretty much it.

The only thing I've done to my E63 has been a clear bra, wheels/tires, professionally installed Escort Passport 9500ci, Sub woofer and additional speakers in the kick panels.
That's pretty much it.

Haha, same here. The only mods are little things like door pins and a sticker or two...that's anathema to them M113k folks.

I really modded out mine then, I had the transmission serviced by the factory and bought some tires.
I wonder if the op bought that '08?

I've added these awesome Affalterbach Decals to the back of my headrests.
So I thought that I would share this outstanding mod.

These are not as thin as aluminum foil, slightly thicker. But they are aluminum. I have bought quite a few of these about 8 years ago, and have given them out to other AMG owners over the years. And when I need a few myself I couldn't find them, until recently. I plan to but a few more for added measure, they would look nice on a metal coffee mug, black coffee cup etc. Just be sure that you clean the surface with alcohol before applying.
