the only thing not stock would be the stickers and wing ... performance though seems to be stock as there are really no tunes out for the W213 e63 yet....

Could of been tuned by pp performance. Also it sounded modded

^ lol how could it be tuned by pp-performance when they are still working on their beta tune on their test car?

Check out this video. Also looks like that black w212 has a brabus exhaust+diffuser.

They dont say anything about tune. Im pretty sure its stock.

Here is the black one that we saw in previous videos. It is indeed a S model e63. He's just not using any launching techniques.

I believe the lag on the M157 based E and CL will be present on the new 2018 ones. The torque management will also be in full effect for sure. Don't expect any real changes in those departments.

Why am I so sure, after driving around in a 2017 E300, it's not very difficult to cause the jerking and lag to happen in sport and sport plus modes at all. And this is an automatic. In fact the two different E300s I've driven along with the GLC 300 I drove for at least a week in each case has real bad jerking and lags very similar to my E63 prior to getting adapted. Based on this, I do not expect any changes to the new E at all.

Since it's running the same MCT and MB has encrypted the sh*t out of their software since the beginning of man, I'm sure it won't be any different...
