2015 E63S order help needed
Trying to decide if the S model is worth the extra money as I will be tuning the car anyway?
If I get the S model the options I want are
-Night styling
-Pano roof
-Lane tracking
Does the car come standard with parktronic? I don't need all the cameras
MSRP comes out to 104,780$, and it looks like invoice is 97,511$
What should I be looking to pay for this car?
Thanks
Tom
I would say get the E63 We have owned a F10 M5 as a shop car she was great R.I.P
But the E63 really did catch my eye when we worked on it and test drove it
Car comes with backup camera and parktronic. Surround view is $800. I think it is totally worth it.
Make sure you want pano...several threads on the "clunk" issue. I tried to add it after my order went in and I couldn't and was disappointed until the car came in. Glad I didn't spend the $1100.
E63>>M5 for everything except transmission and tech.

There are now significant appearance and performance differences between base and S Model for 2015. Some are carryovers, but much of it is new.
Wheels. Silver 10 spoke versus Titanium 10 spoke
Exhaust tips are different.
Trunk spoiler optional on base.
Sport steering wheel optional on base
Lighted sill plates optional on base
Splitter now body color on base versus blacked out on S
Rocker panels in body color on base
Red brake calipers on S versus gray on base
Affalterbach logo embossed on headrest on S
Silver stitching and seatbelts on S
It appears that Night Styling is not available on base. And now window chrome trim is blacked out when equipped. Wagon gets blacked out roof rails.
LSD is no longer available on base.
CCBs not available on base.
Then there's the HP and Torque differences.

I don't think we're allowed to do that. The PL has some strict rules on sharing info outside of that site.
Someone else might be willing to risk their PL membership, tho.
US prices increased about $1K for each of the three models.
Cardinal red now available for $360
The rest seems unchanged.

What's the number is should be looking for with this car? How much over or under invoice?




I've got the DOG posted here: https://mbworld.org/forums/w212-amg/...guide-dog.html

Lease will be base buy rate money factor without a mark up and $795 acquisition fee (the unmarked up base price).
There are better deals to be had on the BMW M5 (was offered $1000 over ED invoice for ED) and the money factors are lower than MB leases. But to me the AWD and the great power and greater tuning potential are well worth the difference in payment. I live in New York and have one car. Would not want to be sliding around in the snow in a tuned 670 bhp rear wheel drive M5 even with snows. Can we say fishtailing and traction control cutting off power??

Just in case you are still on the fence

Total annihilation of a heavily tuned 2014 M5 by a moderately tuned 2013 E63 (not even the awesome 2014 AWD).
