New wagon

So i have a highly modified E63S sedan which my wife will no longer let me drive so i have had to make alternative plans...I am taking delivery of a stock E63S Wagon in the next couple of weeks....will be interesting to see the comparison of the two b4 it goes out west for some wonderful Weistec love who I think are truly the leader with this platform.

Made 815 at the wheels with the Sedan.....will W4 turbos push the wagon to 900??????

Hi,
Just out of curiosity, why won't your wife let you drive the modified sedan? You were a bad boy with that sedan weren't you. From what you wrote it sound like a killer street car though. The wagon is like 0.1 seconds slower than the sedan (stock for stock) but according to the magazines it still pulls a 0-60 in 3.0 to 3.1 seconds so with the mods that you're planning it should be really fast though not as fast as your sedan. But, think of it, a wagon with this kind of performance! Makes me smile every time I drive mine and it's stock so best of luck with yours.

My wife loves the car and told me to get something else

The wagon will have W4's on it and quicker than the sedan.

2018 W213 E 63 S AMG Sedan
i am confused

you had a modded sedan, your wife said “i like this car too much, get rid of it”, so now you are going to do the same mods to a wagon and she’s ok with that?

535XIT, E63S
I love my e63 but rarely use the off the line potential and on the highway the car is so fast just can't imagine why you would mod?

just saw a video of a guy in a RS6 on steroids doing 378 kph. i did 295 on E63S stock and had to take the foot off because it is scary the lightness the car gets over the tarmac.

That is me as well. I just did the AMG track day last Friday and pushed those cars to 9/10 or more in some of the drills. It is insane what the E63 can do, or even what the other AMG models are able to handle in terms of speed and agility. But at the end of the day, they all get new tires and TLC from the pros. I need mine to be reliable and not a maintenance hog.

Best of luck with the new wagon... sounds like it will look like mine: magno, CCB and all the goodies minus carbon fiber.

I did Road Atlanta last month. It still boggles my mind that the E63 is seconds faster around the track than an SLS from half a decade ago...like...MUCH faster.
