E63 input, persepctive buyer looking for tips
I almost made a buy on an 04 E55 a few months back, however I decided to hold out. I've since found a couple 63's locally and am again on the prowl. I'm semi familiar with most E55 defaults/issues to look out for, however am clueless of the possible problems that come with pre-owned 63's. Any in-site would be greatly appreciated.
I'm also curious as to why I've found a couple decent mile 63's that are even cheaper than some 55's... I've been in the market for awhile just thought I'd ask some of the gurus. TIA, here are a couple, private dealer but seem legit, both single owners with full records...

I suppose I neglected to mention the questions I had, are there any common problems to be aware of or perhaps any of the same precautions to take as when shopping for a 55?

Nothing? I guess I should reword my post, looking for input on the e63, changing title now... Any input is better than none.

Both links are dead. What year 63 are you looking at? If it's pre-turbo (M156) engine, then you might also post in the C63 forum as that one is more frequented. Biggest problem there was a head bolt issue that has affected some of the earlier years.
