2010 with 99k miles. Second owner, just dropped it off for headbolts, valve buckets & all the bits impacted while it’s open.
love this vehicle, so to me worth the repair.
Haven't seen one of these threads yet in this section, thought it may be interesting . Nice to see some higher mile examples , as i'm sure we're getting there with this chassis .
2015 63S just rolled 96k mi. here , no cylinder scoring or valvetrain issues . All stock - normal maint. thus far.
81K here. It's been a fairly good ride since I picked it up at 32K miles. Replaced left cross strut multiple times, finally using the Mevotech. Also replaced the plugs and coils at 64K, Airmatic compressor along with the Pre Fuse Box buried in the engine compartment at 74K,

Where did you get the mevotech parts? When inquired about the mevotech parts for the w212 e63. Mevotech no longers sells them or what not…
thus, I went with the oem. For next time wishing to try mevotech.

Just about to roll over 52k
I think about listing it for sale from time to time.. then i'll drive it and delete the ad lol
No issues, perfect cylinder walls. stock tune, just downpipes
currently in the market for one just out of curiosity what have you listed it for
Like the title says 2010 E63 with 145,000 miles. Runs extremely strong and the exhaust sound is off the hook. Civilized until my foot is into it and just a growling beast after. I picked it up at 60,000 and have had it since. Could not be more pleased. Hope you enjoy all your beasts, we are approaching the end of the AMG V8 Era. I recall having a conversation with a G wagon owner at my local dealership a while we were both getting service a year or so ago. To boil down a long and enjoyable conversation his comment was "you can't ever get rid of your AMG". At the time I did not think much of his comment but now I am inclined to agree..
2015 @68k. No real performance mods. No major break downs, just little things here and there with maintenance (ball joints, wheel bearing, struts, coolant bottle leak).
2015 @72k No mods . replaced driver side boot and battery in trunk. thats it so far
if you don't mind me asking what is this cross strut everyone is replacing? I've only had my car 6 months and i am wondering what that is and what i should be looking out for to know i need replacing . thank you sir

2014 E63S. Bought in March of this year. 101k on it now. It makes me nervous and I haven't bonded with it the way I did with my 04 E55. I also need to sort out a wheel balance issue (unless it is something worse). At least one wheel has a bend visible on the outside. I bought it from the original owner and it had 100% dealer maintenance.
I would not road trip this car because my S550 is far superior for that.
102k now. I'm not going to update every 1k but I want to say two things:
1) I am beginning to bond with the car more as I experiment with S vs S+, the suspension settings, and I did a mild brake torque launch the other day which was actually quite exciting. Next year I may just splurge on NEW front shocks (we'll see)
2) The less I read these forums, the more reliable the car gets (in my mind). I have nothing to complain about. I get in it and drive it. I know stuff will break but reading the forums constantly is a good way to reduce enjoyment of ownership.
