Nothing.
I had a 996 Turbo for 7 years. Sold it for an SL65. I would NEVER get near another 12 cylinder. Costs were outrageous.
Sold it for my C63S.
I would love a 2014 E63 wagon, but the lack of a 3rd row is a showstopper and they're still too expensive.

The V12 was not the problem on the two I've owned/own. Sure, the coil packs are expensive but my biggest expenses revolved around the ABC suspension and all the related parts.

agree'd
if i ever was without my E63 I'd probably get another. anything newer that is comparable to the W211 nearly costs double.
in California R32 GTR's cost 36k+. if you were referring to the VW R32...not even a comparison.

I miss having a vert, so maybe an SL63, or a 911 cab. I'd toy with the idea of getting a G wagon too, cause urban assault vehicle.

The 2012 I looked at was equivalent to US$28-30k with less than 60,000 miles. For comparison my E55 was US$22k with 21,000 miles.

Can't think of a damn car I want other than what I have... if I had 20-25k to spend I'd just get a Toyota 4runner, it'll last me for the rest of my life, but for pleasure I'm keeping my E55 alive as long as possible. After that, whatever AMG is most modable.
