However, he also said there will likely be a limited build for 2021 because of the slow down. They did not have a DOG yet.

I put my build together and they're going to put me in their first build spot when it opens up.

My Spec: 2021 E63 Wagon

• Brilliant Blue Magno
• 20-inch AMG cross-spoke
• Black interior
• Carbon fiber trim
• Black DINAMICA headliner
• Night package
• Energizing comfort
• 3-zone climate
• Heated rear seats
• Active multi-contour seats
• Acoustic comfort package
• Headup display
• Driver assistance package
• Dashcam

Basically - every option you can get.

Won't be here until next year, but its still exciting.

My understanding is that the so-called "highlights" of the E-Class AMG line built at Sindelfingen are the E53 cars, while the E63S AMG 'one man, one engine' cars are built at Affalterbach. I haven't encountered any definitive information indicating otherwise. My AMG salesman has visited both factories and agrees with that statement.

I too will check additional status and post back.
