Hahahahah. Well up until recently we have. Well it is true, the car has never been driven in the rain. Also, never been through an automatic car wash either (intentionally). Once the stealer ran it through after an oil change. Paint looks and feels like the showroom floor. This car bought new and babied for 3 1/2 years. Still not a peep of interest from the peeps around MB World.

Take the trade-in and move on. Too many people here agonize for months about a sale for the sake of a few thousand bucks.

Ya, if I wait too long the thing will depreciate another $10K.

People who are commenting any other brand than Benz makes me wonder if the quality has really deteriorated upto such a level that people are recommending other vehicles and not the updated AMG's

I have no clue regarding CTS-V or Audi or what not other than youtube videos but Mercedes should be worried about losing their customer base and their loyalty.

TTT

Still can't believe that no person has expressed any interest in this clean, smooth, powerful, low mileage 2009 E63. They only made 425 of these. It has the upgraded DVD, NAV, etc. New Pilot Super Sport Michelin tires. Never driven in the rain, perfect in every way.

Gas mileage, engine (class action law suit re this) and tranny problems could be compelling reasons. A quick search of this forum would reveal all. I believe anyone would do that before expressing interest.

You'd probably get more interest away from MB World. Only responding because you've commented more than once about it.

What did you buy?

From all the cars listed/mentioned ITT, I'd pick the ZR1 hands down. That car is straight NASTY - light bolt-ons and you're a daily driven 9 second car easy. The handling on those things is out of this world; I loved the ZR1 I test drove, definitely one of the next cars I own.

Decided to keep my E63. The car is too perfect to sell at this point. I was starting to get some lowball offers via other dealers and private parties. MB only made 425 2009 E63s. Hell might get a Weistec blower put on soon. FWIW.

Thanks for all your replies! Love this forum!!

Probably the wisest decision. With the saved money you could get another boob for the girl in your avatar.

Do not want to go up to the P-car or Ferrari but am probably missing something in between.

The Black CTS V is a monster as is the ZR1 and both cars are affordable but the Nissan is stealth looking to me (ugly to others).

Is there anything else I should consider?
I couldn't agree with you more on the GT-R. Tat's the car I would replace my E63 with. You should look into the black track edition. I believe only 150 or 250 being shipped to the US.
