2018 E63s wagon (& lots of Subarus)
This is my new favorite E63 wagon! The purple is killer
Glad you were able to find such a special one!
If you ever want to get rid of it, I would sell my '18 E63 wagon and take this one in a heartbeat

I was looking at the designo/MANUFAKTUR 2022 catalog and it could be your car used as a color example?

I was wondering the same thing in my original post. I attached that photo from the 2022 MANUFAKTUR catalog. Ours and the one in the MANUFAKTUR catalog both are optioned with: the color, the RTS forged black wheels, AMG Night Package, AMG Ceramic Composite Brakes, AMG Exterior Carbon Fiber Package, AMG black leather and they both happen to be fitted with P Zero Tires. They are both also not optioned with Chrome Door Handle Inserts.

I appreciate your interest. My parents have planned to own this until 2026, so they added some things, like the CPO’s max, 4-year warranty, 2-yr maintenance package, and had PPF added to the front of the vehicle. They just ordered a set of OZ winter wheels and tires. Not sure which Mercedes package(s) could be transferred or cancelled for a refund, or if its value would be lost. Just those items above cost over $10,000 on top of the purchase. While we love our Northern Lights Violet Metallic wagon and do not have it for sale, most anything at some point has a price. We don’t know what we could find that could match this, but my father said he would be open to an offer.

I'm sure everything is always for sale, for the right price
I love mine too much to let it go. I just LOVE the purple tho, purple is a great color for a car. Shame its faded out of popularity, it used to be more of thing in the early 90s.
Reminds me I need to see about extending my CPO/extended warranty....

Am I seeing right that it doesn't have the HUD? or does it not have the cross-traffic alert? wondering why its missing a button that mine has

We do get a lot of compliments about the color. It does not have HUD. HUD is a standalone option on 2019s compared to 2018, where it is in the Driver Assistance Package. It does have the heated steering wheel option, as you can see on the smaller steering column stalk. Heated steering wheels were not an option on 2018s.

Just stating the facts... The main reason I traded in my satin grey E63s wagon for a white GLE 63s coupe last week.

If you can't park with out worry about a scratch or door ding, you don't own the car it owns you..

This car would be perfect if it had a HUD which is a must have, especially a car of this caliber. How difficult is it to retrofit one?

Congrats on the new addition Michelin Man!

HUD was one of the top items in our list, as well as a few others. After watching the listings for many weeks, and seeing how rare were all the features we prioritized, we calculated that the peak of 2019s coming off lease was past. The numbers going forward (both prices climbing and availability decreasing) told us to move, or risk getting less, or not being able to afford the best car we have owned.

Understood. It is almost perfect and then some considering the other rare options it has. Enjoy it in good health!
