Searched but couldn't find anything. Having a 2014 with the B&O upgrade, my spare tire came strapped down in the trunk. Now it just sits in my garage. Any idea if 1. the car even comes with a spare and 2. does the upgraded Burmester option mean the spare is strapped down in the trunk again?

Our 2014 with the B&O sound had the same spare tire setup as yours. The spare lived in the garage. Our 2018 E63S, which we are currently told we will get on 9/15 has the Burmester 3D system. It should not matter. A standard build code for all E63S cars is B51 TireFit Mobility Kit. That is the same as my W222 S65. It is an inflator kit for cars without EMT's (run Flats) and without spare tires. Good news, no run flats, bad news no spare.

An inflator kit makes me really nervous. It's okay for everything except long distance trip over several hundred miles away.
