this rumor was swirling around since last year and MB is still using this car in question doing some more testing even today. Hmm.

Oh, baby! Possible refinements: touch more HP like the GT sedan, body work and better venting to front brakes... what else?

Lose some weight! Larger brakes.

Basically faster to go, faster to stop, better handling, more aggressive looking.

I'd love some more aggressive body work, especially the back end.

Would be nice if they also upgraded the interior with lots and lots of alcantara.....
I'm a sucker for that material.

Same.. I love the special edition Ferrari's like the challenge stradale, scuderia, speciale... just all alcantara and carbon fiber...

BTW.. an R wagon would make me faint.. I want a E63 wagon so bad

In all honesty I doubt this every makes it to the US.. The e63 wagon is a unicorn... A niche of a niche... Adding another variant won't happen... We didn't even get the e43 wagon.. And I'm super sad we didn't get the C43 wagon lol

As an E63S wagon owner I can tell you that it is a very special car. I hope that the R variant comes here but I highly doubt it.

This is most likely just a test mule for the GT63 sedan, and not any actual special version of a E63 wagon wide body. The GT63 sedan has wider track compared to E63s so that explains the wider fenders.
