ummm.. unless I'm blind the few pictures that are on that page it appears to be an E63.... Dual exhaust, AMG gauge cluster, E63 front grill....

Coming from someone who doesn't have an AMG???

Looks like an E63 to me, front grill is aftermarket though.

On closer inspection, it may not be fake but rather just a case of poor taste with the grill emblem mod and no removal of the hood ornament. Just shouted Wrong to me!

Here's one that definitely doesn't seem right...

Guys, just saying there are a lot of questionable offerings out there. Like this one, too good to be true?

Its scam....... the car is real E63. If you call the seller, he will tell you that he doesn't have the car with him. Wire him the money and he will ship you the car bla bla bla........

Yeah, definitely a real E63 but the grill is horrible. The rubber floor mats are cheesy too. The price is way too high for that model year and miles, plus those aren't stock AMG wheels.

I paid 9k less than that for my MY07 E63 and mine had 10k less miles. There are better deals out there. Anyone buying one of these cars, make sure you get a warranty!
