Aussie E63 S - ordered/intro

Hey guys,

Just confirmed with my dealer this week here in Perth, Western Australia.

799 Diamond White Bright Metallic
773 Exterior AMG Carbon-Fibre Package
H73 AMG Carbon Fibre / Black Piano Lacquer Trim
821 Black Nappa Leather (silver seatbelts)

The Australian market gets the 'S' specification in RWD only.

Standard features include Harmon Kardon Logic 7, Panoramic Roof, Driving Assist, Alcantara wheel, 360 camera....

November delivery. Very excited, it's going to be a loooong 4.5 months :-)

Will have another set of tyres waiting as I don't expect the rears to last too long after I take delivery.

Great to be part of the community.

Jme

Jme,

Welcome and congratulations! I can totally relate to the long wait, having just ordered an S model in the US with planned November deliver. I am planning on ordering new wheels and tires as well, but for a different reason (snow, not excess heat )

Post pics when you take delivery!

We get raped over here. The disadvantage of living in a modern society of convenience but lacking a population to support it.

Edit: correct adm spec is s model only. The only options are carbon trim/exterior, paint, leather and carbon brakes. They're sold here relatively fully loaded.

Ahh you didn't get the carbon ceramic brakes? $25000 option. Would have tipped it to $300,000 I'm currently looking to get either a 2012 bi turbo or a 2011 6.2l last of them. Money is not the issue but I just don't know which one has the better sounding motor haha. I like the way the 6,2 revs past 7k it so fast revving.

Yeah, didn't see the value in the carbon brakes :-).

I've always been wary of buying a series 1 of anything. So in your case the last of the 6.2's would be the go.

When in doubt choose the one that does the biggest skid.
