Just delivered yesterday!

Just picked up my first ever Mercedes and got to say I love it. Switched from a POS Maserati and glad to get rid of it and join the MB club.

Welcome to the AMG Family. Great color you choose. Did you get the sport seat or the comfort?

Color: designo Selenite Grey Magno (matte)


I stayed with the comfort seats, no massage feature as it's gimicky IMO and wanted to keep costs down a bit.

Well, I think that you made the best choice. Sport seats are comfortable to an extent 1-2 hours. But not for those extended road trips.
It's best to be comfortable. My brother never liked to seats in either my E63 or C63, he always complained that the side/hip bolsters were too tight.
And I always told him, that's true German engineering/craftsmanship and not some piece of crap that he's used to driving. He's always driving american cars.
But I do think that you made the right choice...enjoy the performance of your new ride.

Taking it easy during the break-in period is killing me!

I know that feeling well, but you can ease into it. Roll on the throttle a little bit.

The original poster has a Selenite Grey E63S which is a W213. This is my Black 2007 E63 which is a W211. There is a big difference between the two.

I took his post as a joke. I think he knows it's not a 211.

Yes, I am now aware of the generations and and posted this under the wrong group. My crucifix is currently being whittled out of white pine and shipped here within 6 weeks.

Haha, good, goood.

Also, I was not trying to be mean or attacking with my comment. I was legitimately just trying to point out that this was a sub-forum for a different chassis than what you purchased because you probably didn't realize. I did after all compliment the car and yes, I am jealous haha.

I have never heard anyone buy an AMG and say they "...wanted to keep the costs down a bit". LOL!

Congrats! The car looks stunning. You'll love it.
