Great news, glad it's finally in. Good thread, great pictures of everyones new cars. The paint job of Vics car is really starting to grow on me, I use to not like those flat colors, but for whatever reason I'm liking it. I guess I can't regret not getting my wagon in that color as I don't think it was available on the wagons. For some reason I had a real hard time deciding on the color of my car. I was originally gonna do the Selinite but then decided it would be too close to my Pallidium gray S550 and switched to the red, I had even considered the green for a while, but thought I'd regret that as it's not the best shade of green, although it woulda been rare, thats for sure. I have not seen one AMG that is that color. The Lunar Blue does look nice too.

No Edition 1 wagons were imported to the US, though they were sold in Europe. My wagon order includes the designo Selenite Grey Magno (matte) paint.
That said... I have waivered between matte and the Lunar Blue, as I have always liked blue wagons.
Im running 15mm fronts which definitely fixes the inward. Id like 12mm or 10mm rears but our snouts on the oem hubs are very long and most spacers do not work.
Have you tried the H&R designed for the front of the W212 out back? It makes up for the long snout on the front of the W212s
Added 12mm spacers in the back--- it does a rear good
Perfect setup!
I was waiting to order spacers until you had yours finalized.
Still Supreme Power? Could you please share the a bit more detailed info so I can place the order?

Ok so outside of me drawing a diagram (which will suck) the old Supreme spacers had an angled snout for the 12mm version. The angle was not clear to the naked eye per se but caused the spacer to not be hubcentric causing load on the lug nuts. They fixed this problem and now the new batch is perfect (tried and tested).
I would just call them and say you want the same set up as Vic on your E63S (15mm fronts and 12mm rears).

Posted this in another thread related to car washes. Figured I'd post them in the Pic thread too.
First real wash since I got the car home a week ago. No finishes or sealers applied, just rinsed off, then used Adams foam cannon and dishwashing soap, once over with washing mitt and then rinsed and dried.
Just picked this one up. Originally wanted to build one for Euro delivery but there were unexpected delays and some options were sold out so I found this beauty at a local dealer.
Has everything I wanted except performance seats and the fragrance system! My C43 had the performance seats and they were great but these massage seats on the E63 are more comfortable... they just don't look as nice!
Options:
Performance exhaust
Premium package
Acoustic comfort
Advanced lighting
Night package
High end 3D Burmester
Rapid heating seats
Dinamica headliner
Panoramic roof
Carbon fiber interior
Still trying to break it in but I can't drive it much yet since it's still very much winter here! That's what my X3 M40i is for .
