need some input purchasing 2014 e63
Hi all, I'm new to this forum and just want some your thoughts on this car.
I was originally in between Panamera and E63, but I thought this could the one.
I'm looking at cpo 2014 e 63 amg with 9k miles at $58700. Carfax looks clean I think.
Here is the link.

I think this car has all the other options except p30 pkg?
Anything I should look for? Price?
Any input is appreciated.

Palladium is a gorgeous color and rare on the 63
the price is high for a 2014 but its loaded and pristine and low miles and certified
negotiate down to $52,000 if you can
good luck

Some info for you.....
This car was likely off lease as it was sold by MB Financial. When it went through the auction, it sold on 10/2 for $53,500 and was a 4.2 car. Not sure how familiar you are with the Manheim grading system, but 4.2 is pretty good. Not superb or near-flawless, but pretty good. You should ask the dealer for the Manheim condition report, i.e., why was it a 4.2, and what sort of reconditioning they did. One popular Manheim dig is substandard paint, i.e., the PO had some paintwork done for whatever reason and it wasn't done extremely well. If they don't give you the condition report, that'd be the first thing I'd check.
This car pulled a lot of money at the auction relative to others that have recently run.
Note that Carfax says it's offered as a CPO car. We can debate all day the concept that CPO implies it's a better car vs. non-CPO, but it's certainly greater than zero. Good luck!

It’s been a while since I have been in the business and at an auction, but I would guess $1,000 for fees and transportation, then probably at least $1,000 in the shop to get it CPO. What do you think?

OP - you should also ask for the repair order to bring the car up to CPO spec, if you're interested in the car.

Make sure those rims are balanced and not dinged ... those are expensive to repair. They are the best rims for the e63S imho
just realized this is not an S and it's so odd to me for it to be this highly optioned for a non S: twin spoke rims, distro, pano ... wow.
If you tune this car you risk your warranty but you would get all the power that a tuned e63S would have.

the most important thing the S brings you after then power gains is the LSD.... and this is controversial as some like me believe it's important with all this power but others feel like it's not since the car has awd

I'm looking at cpo 2014 e 63 amg with 9k miles at $58700. Carfax looks clean I think.

I think this car has all the other options except p30 pkg?
Anything I should look for? Price?
Any input is appreciated.

Often these each e63 non S model are cars from Hertz or enterprise, their exclusive collection, you should make sure that's not the case because I would not want to car from there, but of course there's been tons of discussion about this on the forums.
