looks about 75% excellent.. and 25% bland.

probably just a better rear defuser and its good to go. Like a SL63 rear defuser. (Thats a project for somebody... hint!)

Looks good with the PP wheels. Its the non PP wheels that are crap, and, it needs a major drop.

Thing is that the SL63 rear diffuser is too look cute only....has ZERO affect on keeping the car planted...to MB, not you

Nice looking ride, just wonder how long until MB offers a rebate. Won't be too many takers at 100K. That is Pallidium silver, much darker than it appears in the sunlight. Does anyone know the curb weight of this bad boy?

Keep in mind that when the wagon gets stateside, I don't think it will look as mean from the rear. I believe the rear plate insert will be taller and much narrow to fit the US plate. This is strictly aesthetic however. But Neal may have a euro plate insert mod for the new wagon body - similar to what MJ50 did to his sedan. But then again, what did MJ50 NOT do to his sedan.

LOL, the thread is back on track or is it

It's the only replacement I'd consider for my current E63. No Hyundai/Lexus funky butt for me thank you. Those wagon tails are much more properly proportioned.

I read that the '10 E63 wagon won't be brought into the USA even as a special order...Euro only. No?

Also the '10 E63 lists cheaper than the '09 E63; why would it be $100K even optioned out?

Agree...I'd expect it to be in the $85k range.

I gotta say, the Camry especially fooled me for a sec.

I agree with those saying the Wagon is the better looking one.... Which makes me very as a I hate Wagons. It almost seems like the W212 was designed as a Wagon first, as the rear and overall shape looks more unique and cohesive I think.

The front bumper and especially LED's on this look much better than than regular version, but what's with the exhaust tips? They're gloriously disproportionate and oddly shaped. The left ones even seem too far spaced from each other.

Apparently I'm invisible...no one has heard the rumor that MBZ USA will *NOT IMPORT* the E63 Estate Wagon?

So what's the performance increase in 0-60, rolling start to 100 and 1/4 mile compared to 07 - 09 e63?
