2014 E63 S AMG Wagon
So I traded in my C63 and bought a 2014 E63 S Wagon. My question is, can this car be lowered, sits a bit high. I'm unfamiliar with the suspension on this model and would love to hear from anyone who has done this.
Also, is this car a W212 or does it have a different W number?

Congrats! I just made the exact same move last weekend except I am getting back into a 212. I believe the correct designation for a wagon is the S212.
Enjoy the wagon. I definitely am!

Congrats on the new family hauler.
Yes, it can be lowered. There are a few options that utilize springs in the front and links in the rear. Some are sets don't allow adjustment and are stuck with a certain drop amount (I believe H&R is this way) while sets like KW HAS allow for some fine tuning based on what you'd like. I went with the KW HAS since I didn't want to be too low.
Some have complained that when using a non-adjustable rear link and drop too low, that the car rides very harshly when in S/S+.

I like to do my own work so I know the car a little better. The front looks fairly straightforward but I am unfamiliar with the rear set up. What would you suggest.
BTW there will be no regrets or critters in this Wagon, only Her Ladyship and Myself, ha ha.

Thanks Jimminez, very helpful. Did you do the work yourself or have it done?
