Haha, beat me to it! I was having my dealer check it out for me before I posted it though. 😉

Lady I was chatting with says it's available. However, as you probably know, that doesn't mean it's available. Lots of rookie salespeople trying to make a sale fail to check before saying available. I didn't pursue because it's not for me so not certain on this one.

Based on cloth headliner I'd guess it's available. Dealers don't understand this for some reason when ordering.

Why all manufacturers don't have sentry mode by now is astonishing. AMG customers have to fight for a cheap forward facing only camera as an option in the year 2021.

Separately, how amazing is Dog Mode?

Debating this. Don't love some of the options (those stupid projectors are on every dealer build, it seems) and the lack of CCBs is frustrating.

I like them because they provide some light on the ground but I'm sure they're easy to remove or disable.

It's just a film filter inside the puddle lights underneath the door. Since MB removed the door handle LEDs after the facelift, it's better than nothing.

I wonder if they’re asking above MSRP for it? It’s a nice car. BBM is definitely a bold color.

Duly noted. I don't mind having lights per se, I just find projecting the AMG logo to be a bit ostentatious. Would love to be able to swap that for something else.

You can swap it for the standard puddle light, takes 5min, just plugs in.

Usually don't post used but this 2018 wagon may be interesting to someone looking for Selenite Grey Magno. Original owner, private party sale, low mileage, and reasonable asking price. There are many aspects of the pre-refresh that are very appealing to many including exhaust, steering wheel, front grille, old style non-forged wheels, IWC clock, etc.

Here's another 2018 that I find very attractive. One owner, reasonable price and low mileage. Big fan of black exterior without night package and brown leather interior. Modern elegance. Only wish would be carbon fiber interior trim to match exterior. Or none at all. Contact is Austin at dealer.

Completely agree about black with the silver trim and brown. Just can’t get over the crazy prices for an 18.

Agreed but don't think $95k is totally unreasonable for a low mileage 2018, in this market. Bet you could buy it for $90k, that's roughly 25% less than a new one. I wouldn't pay over $90k though. All used cars are crazily priced right now.

Sometimes, what would not make sense, is now the norm. Scarce commodity, lots of potential buyers creates a seller's market. No different than the stock market, just a car rather than a security. My 2018 E63S that I turned back to MBFS had a buyout of $72K. The dealer bought the car from MBFS and resold it (CPO, 28,000 miles) for $89K. I just wasn't interested in closing out the buyout and reselling it privately. The same thing is happening with real estate here in NC. Houses are being sold for $20,000-30,000 OVER the asking price. Net, if the car suits your interest, what's another 5%? Not worth haggling about chump change. Just my observation on the state of the used car market. BTW, I've had several offers to buy my wagon for $20,000 more than I paid for it in February. I consider myself fortunate to have been able to acquire this vehicle given the probability of no further E63SV8 wagons after MY2021.

Out of curiosity, who is making these offers? Dealers or folks on the street who see your car?

I had one gentleman in an Audi made me an offer in my grocery parking lot. The other person was when I was leaving my bank. Both told me that they had tried to buy one from a dealer, but could not get an allocation. Believable, but strange.

As noted above the car market, used and new, is nuts right now so understand that everything is more expensive. Just close to $100k for a nearly four year old wagon is way above what it used to be (not that is matters.)

there was a BBM/nut brown wagon that Walnut Creek was asking $10k over for that I now wish I bought. Just can’t bring myself to do ADM.

Forgive me if I've posted this already but the salesman is really nice. Asking $25k over but I suspect you could get them down a lot. Contact is Javier at +1 (323) 309-4883.

@signes these are the last non-electric drive (bologna) V8s. 2021-2018; find a nice one and keep for 10+ years. Get one and be done.
I had to go clear to the east coast to order one and then send a truck/trailer to go and get it...
