Importing a car from Canada. Convert KPH to MPH?
I found a good deal on a 2016 E63s in Canada that I’d like to import to the USA. One of the quirks of the deal is that I’d have to convert the dash from KPH to MPH. Does anyone know what all is involved in doing that?

Also, does anyone know if the CPO from Canada will carry over to the USA?

I must be searching for incorrectly, i wasnt able to find any info on importing a W212. Very curious as to why it’s not worth it... hmmm.

Just divide your Kph value by 1.609 ! Simple.

2012 E63 AMG Wagon
Saw this on YT recently:

It shows doing the reverse (MPH to km/h) but procedure is the same either way of course.

THANK YOU ALL! Did I ever tell you guys how much I love this forum?

I've always been a part of the MB family, until earlier this year when I sold the E55 and bought a Range Rover. Figured I should try something new. Nothing wrong with that truck, but man, the folks on those forums are a different breed. Not to mention, that truck is not made for an enthusiast of any sort, it's just a nice quiet ride. There is nothing else to it.... at all.

I just sold the Range this week and am hunting for the E63 now. Couldn't be happier to be coming back.
