my new "to me" 63 - wagon

just got it home - sorry for the crappy celly pic - but wanted to post it up

flew to San Diego on Friday and drove it home to SJ - overall love the car - the power is so much more gradual compared to the monster toque of the 55 - only took me 6 months to find the right one.

loaded except for park/distronic -

first up is: clear armor and then i am thinking euro63rs wheels - sitting side by side in the garage next to the 55 it looks so much smaller - more pics to be posted once i get some time

seller had it completely detailed the day before i picked it up! - 08 - will reaching out to Jerry be worth it on the 63 motor?

How many miles on it? You mean this was in my back yard and I had to go to Texas to get mine. Mine just came last night.

2009 E63 Wagon
Congrats! What a nice color! My CLK63 is Capri Blue. I think the color is very rare. I just picked up W211 ('09) E63 Wagon too. Flint Gray - not as appealing as Capri Blue but will be good for a daily driver. Mods are in the works already!

Is this the 13k mile car that came from MB of walnut creek? I just scanned the registry and saw it was the only Capri blue 09 I had listed.

Enjoy, sounds like a beautiful car

My E63 wagon is actually Flint Gray. Came from BRUMOS MB in Jacksonville, FL. Previously owned by an older lady in St Augustine. Your registry had the car listed but as Black. My CLK63 cab is Capri Blue. BTW, I saw your E55 in YouTube videos for that wannagofast event in GA. Do you remember what you 1/2 trap speeds were? Also, are you going this year. I will be there. Bringing both 63s.

I was trapping @138 last year. I will be running on Sat and spectating on Sun.
I updated your color to reflect correctly in the registry.

I look forward to meeting you and having some fun at the GA 1/2 mile in Sept.

I am running on Sunday but plan on being there both days. Is your car equipped with an LSD?

Just stock with a BIP tune for now. LSD and long tube headers on the future mod list though
