I have not tried it yet on the E63 but it works great on all other cars I have.

They even have a Mercedes CLS in the picture on their website.

It should work for any car with OBDII.
They post software updates in the downloads section, to keep the program current.

If anyone wants me to confirm it reads our cars, let me know and I can try it out.

I usually use it to check for any failed self tests and/or stored codes before I take a car in for a smog test. I like to know its all clear before the smog tech connects to it.
