Customer E63 Deliveries - Update please

Super Member
I asked my dealer today, they are pissed at the delay and blame VW. Says they have six cars at port now. Makes things harder for them getting all the cars at once. He said MB Canada is telling them early July. I put my '14 up for sale today figuring trade ins might suffer if all the other guys with w212s trade at the same time.

I'm getting the same story and same timeline.
Car at port since mid May and sold mine end of April so my wait is getting long
Please share anything relevant. Wonder what is the story down in the US. Thanks
I can tell you though that I have driven the car at an AMG private event and that it is a beast!

AMG MB,
car looks great with the tint. Thx for posting and giving and giving us playing the waiting game a teaser. For US delivery I am still waiting on a ship assignment, though sort of a moot point until car as well as pricing released.

2018 S560 and 2019 E450 Wagon.
I think overall both the sedan and wagon are great looking cars, it took a little while to get use to the back ends of both the sedans and wagons, but the more I look at them the more I like them. I found out today from the salesman on my car that the Illuminated door sills are now standard equipment, use to be a option. I dunno why I could not find that on the listing of standard equipment. Anyhow, thats good to know because I do like the illuminated door sills on my 2012 and it was optional on that car when new.

I am surprise that they have an E63 without the s in the USA. I thought everything would be the E63s in the USA. I assume the car is no longer at the dealership.

Interesting how the tire display also shows tire temperature.
For that car to only be the non-S version, it has some crazy acceleration. You guys waiting for your cars are not going to be disappointed. I couldn't help but to think of that article where the author talks about using a 707-hp Hellcat as his daily driver and feeling like the E63S would "snap the Hellcat in half."

...Needless to say, I did mention that my only drawback is the lack of designo interiors.

A 1 of 1 vehicle. They will all be E63s in 18, as Vipershade said our rep said once he's done training on the vehicle it will be crushed. That E63 is not titleable or allowed to export.

After seeing some of the widely varying estimates of base MSRP from 105-120K I am pretty happy about this number!! Follows the formula of small percentage increase over the prior model. Seems I will be looking more at 115K as I optioned as opposed to 130K.

Discount on E63S
All... Newbie here. I'm in NYC Area. I'm wondering what type of discount (percentage wise) you guys got from the dealer? Personally - I traded in (Got Raped) my 2013 Porsche 911. Plus the dealer gave me a 2K discount (Got Raped again).

ARG! After comparing mtwoi's list with mine I see I missed the panorama sunroof!
Checking to see if it's too late to have it added to the order. If it is, oh well. I never use the sunroofs I have in my other cars anyway so I probably won't miss it . . .

I'll find out. Except for the 3D surround system, I have all of the above, minus the Panorama Sunroof (which as noted I hope to get added) plus the Designo Selenite Grey Magno, carbon fiber, Premium Pack 3, ceramic brakes, and a couple other bits.
My hearing is shot so the sound system upgrade would be wasted on me.

I thought with the premium pack 3 it came with the 3D surround? No? But ya, that car being 120 grand minus the rough 5 grand on the 3d surround, but then add in the Premium 3, carbon fiber mirror covers, carbon fiber engine cover plus mine being a wagon I'll be over 130K easy. I just did some research and according to the ordering brochure I had from April it says the Sliding Sunroof is standard equipment, so I don't get the code 413 and the extra grand for the sunroof unless the Panarama sunroof is different from the stand Sliding Sunroof? It does not say anything about the the 3D sound option either under the P 03 package P 04 or even as a stand alone option, although this ordering guide I have is from last april unless the 3D system was added to the Stand alone options to the list later or it's just not available in the USA. Very confusing. I just sent my salesman at the Benz dealer a email regarding both these options because I did not list them on my order and I do want the good sound system and the big sunroof like in my 2012. If I have to pay an extra $5500 for both these things, I'll be approaching a $140,000.00 Sticker on my Wagon and I don't even have the Ceramic Brakes, if I did the car would be approaching a $150,000.00 sticker, oh well, I guess if you're gonna play you gotta play, lol. But I nearly could have bought a 911 Turbo for this price, well maybe a year old one, lol.

Well, I got my answer from here https://www.mbusa.com/mercedes/vehic...E/model-E63W4S Yes indeed the the 3D audio is a $4550.00 option in the USA and also the Panorama Sunroof is a $1000.00 option, I'm hoping the Salesman can add these codes to my September production order tomorrow or Monday, man I wish I'd known about this stuff. Good thing I'm staying on top of things. The 3D audio system is 1450 Watts of power and 23 speakers, I'm kind of a audiophile so thats a good option to have for me and I do like a big sunroof like in my 2012 which was back when the Panorama sunroof was standard, now if you don't order you just get a small sliding sunroof standard equipment. Sometimes I wonder what good are salesman anyhow? Freaking Frusterating. I hope I don't hang up my order by adding the Panorama sunroof, I heard they are on back order. My question before in this thread about the illuminated door sills is very confusing to because with the order I had did not list them as standard equipment and they intact are standard.
