What would u do 2008 e63 lease end buyout ???

Im up in the air here

As much money as i have spent on this car and am still spending today with the new Evo rotor additions im thinking of not purchasing this car after lease .

It is a great running car and ONE of the fastest E63's around but im getting bored , Especially since my business partner just scooped up a Bentley GT . "gotta keep up with the jones's "


If anyone is looking for a E63 with intentions of mods and upgrades PM me . It might be worth it to see what MB can do for this car on lease end or from now . Im overpaid on lease , it matures on 5/11 but its paid until Sept already .

If not the car will have what ever parts are removable taken off and shipped back to MB


Tony

Tony,
I can see you already spent a lot of $$$ in your car and it looks great !
The rear diffuser looks really nice. However, the mod might not help much to increase the value of your car. And how much is the buy out ?

Tony, keep the car.... with a couple of more mods, you'll be in the high 480 whp range and closing in on 600 hp fast. Your car was done right from the beginning with bruce, so I say keep it and make it a project car

IM going to check with MBF today and see where the buyout is .

MB , I know and for what the car is its awesome. a 4 door grocery getter than can hang with the best and still maintain that luxury feel . Like i said im up in the air but leaning towards a new ride but if i don't Bruce already knows we will do just that !

MB - Do u know where i can find out production #'s for these cars ? And also does anyone think they might have any collector value in years to come ?

It's pretty well documented that 4 door sedans typically do not become collectibles; if an AMG version of the W211 chassis ever becomes one, it will be long after we're all dead.

White with Pano W211 is very hard to find. You never know. Some people will pay extra just for the combo color.

Very ture.... all AMGs (and even SLRs) continue to depreciate forever nowadays and I don't think they'll become an extremely high-value collectibles anytime soon. However, the car has a classic shape and a very well-rounded engine not to mention is extremely comfortable, luxurious, and practical. In my opinion, it's an awesome car to keep for a long time.
