The 4matic in 2014 is a big plus with the amount of power these cars are producing. I see you live in Ct so I would go with the 2014 if I were you. Also to consider i the different look... Some like the pre facelift look better.

You need to find out how extensive the damage was due to the deer collision. Collision with those creatures can total a car. Maybe that was the reason the original owner decides to let it go after the repair.

The 2012 is priced waaaaaaaaay too high... even with ceramics. I sold mine for 93k in July of 2012 with an msrp of 109k and only 3k miles. That's 3 years ago.

Keep looking. You should be able to get a pristine 2014 for not much more than they are asking for either car.

'12 E63 Wagon
My '12 wagon with everything on it (but with 39k miles) probably wouldn't sell for over $70k, so I doubt you should pay more than ~73k for that '12.
The RWD '12's are definitely harder to launch than the 14'+, but rotate in the corners a little better (when you are rocking out in the twisties).
I wouldnt be excited to ever drive my RWD model in "winter weather" without a total change of tires. The 4matics have a *significantly* better time of winter weather.

thanks all!
thats what i thought the '12 seems priced too high
the '14 seems too low.. given the car can be totaled but given it is cpo'd?
ill probably hold off a bit and keep my B7 until one shows up..

I'd walk away from both..... '12 is way overpriced and if the dealer is selling the '14 for $82K they probably bought it for $72k. I had a 2010 Porsche GTS and had a minor fender bender at at light when a car rear-ended me and when I traded it in on my '12 E63 I lost 20% more than standard depreciation because of diminished value. With carfax reports being reviewed on every sale I'd stay away from any car that's been in an accident unless you get a super deal and plan on keeping it a very long time.

I wouldn't wanna spend $83k for a car with a dirty carfax .... it'll only haunt you later
I would look for the 2014+ however but the wagon is a bit of a unicorn be prepared to pay a bit for a pristine one and they'll go fast

Congrats on the build. You will love Europe.
As an FYI i just did a cross country cruise with my E63S...HUD is a must...only down side is polarized sunnies make it almost imposible to see the HUD during the day.
At night it was a beautiful thing...
