What colours, finish are considered the best or is it just personal choice with specific specification being the most important. I’ve been searching every day since January for the following and have just found one but in White?
E63s
2018 Onwards/facelift steering wheel
Preferably Black/Grey/Silver
Sub 20k Miles/£65k
Switchable Performance Exhaust
Non-Performance Seats
Heads Up Display
In that case the satin finishes are popular (personally I don't care for them). After that black seems to be next. However it really depends on the person buying. If they're looking for a rare color they're usually willing to pay a bit more. These cars are in high demand so really you can't go wrong with any color.

I have the Selenite Gray Magno and absolutely love it. Just do yourself a favor and get it ceramic coated with a product specifically made for matte cars (I used Gyeon Q2 Matte). It makes the upkeep soooo much easier...it practically washes itself.
Really anything besides black/silver/white...
- Silver specifically is the most boring color.
- White can be nice but hard to keep clean.
- Black is nice when its perfectly detailed but it shows scratches really easily
Somewhere on the forum here I saw/heard of a olive green E-class.

I am also partial to Lunar Blue Metallic. Tried finding a used one and gave up as so few seemed available in that color. Looks like it won't be available after this model year. Right now only five of ninety seven 2021's listed on autotrader are Lunar Blue. Used ones in that color seem to be holding their value well. I assume the low numbers helps.
They all pretty much suck. Lol Mercedes doesn't give E63 buyers many good choices. In general it seems Mercedes loves heavy metallic colors. Lunar is tiring. At dealer, most cars are Lunar Blue and Selenite Grey. Or black and polar white, of course. We don't even have a good German Silver. I tried graphite but it's too brown for my taste. I'd usually go non-metallic black but don't like it for the wagon body style. IDK the 2022 Nautical Blue is nice but too sparkly. It would be perfect in a non-metallic. I have the paint sample and it's a glittery purple.
Both Lunar and Nautical look great in the shade but get them in the sun and it's a different story.
Selenite is probably their best color for E63 wagon because the metallic doesn't look like a 7 year-old dropped a container of glitter in the paint. Problem is every other MB is Selenite. If we were buying an obnoxious G-wagon we'd have dozens of paints from which to choose.

I almost opted for a custom color (Rubellite) instead of the CCB's. It is a really elegant color on the wagon. Alternatively, Hunter Green looks stunning as well. I finally opted to get the CCB's and the Graphite Grey for the color. BTW, this color on the wagon does net positive comments for those who haven't seen this color in a number of years on an E-Class.
Patagonia Red is a stunning choice and not too many people will pick it. Saw this on the internet, gorgeous. It's a Designo paint so a bit more expensive but not too much.
Thank you for taking the time to reply and attach images! It’s certainly a “bold” colour! I certainly think it suits the E53 Coupe pictured...just not sure re the E63s Saloon. Really appreciate regardless 👍

@ocd - have you checked out Midnight Blue which is a non metallic dark blue in the designo ordering guide? I think it would look amazing on an E63s wagon, so much so I almost ordered it but ultimately decided on Olive Metallic. See screenshot below in direct sunlight.
Midnight looks great but it isn't it pretty close to Lunar? Lots of $ for not a lot of difference.
The major difference is lunar is metallic and midnight is not. In the world of dark blues outside of Porsches, that’s pretty significant. There are very few flat blues, but I hear you that even out of direct sunlight dark metallic blues don’t necessarily look metallic. @ocd’s qualm with lunar was the metallic aspect of it so hence I suggested midnight as an option in the designo order guide
