^ What do you mean by “were” being built? Have they not materialized after all?

Big thanks for continuing to provide good info for the forum!

Some of them have finished building some haven't.

Well this Dealer in Quebec is advertising they have one.

I guess I should have taken the Jan build with no CCB's.

You were all right!!
<sigh>
LOL

bobblehead

this one has CCB. i guess it made in before everything is shut down. lol.

silver63

i can't read French but these are file photos. One pic has gray calipers and one pic has blue exterior. You may need to call to find the real spec.

I.T. Guy

Here is the dealer website with it.

I sent it to my dealer replying to their "no 2023's are coming to Canada"

I don't know who knows the truth and what we are being told by all involved. Kind of frustrating.

^^^Great spec. Better than the Final Edition.

Drone_S213

Are you going to buy it?

$201,915CA or $149K USD... so also a bit "cheaper" than Final Edition FWIW

I.T. Guy

No. For a quarter million after taxes it has to be my way, my colors, my options.
I have all the excuses now.

bobblehead

that is insane $ for a wagon.

gooter80

I think that price includes the lux tax. Many of the Canadian dealer websites automatically add it.

bobblehead

For $201 listing, that means:

Wagon itself is listed for around $180
Lux Tax $16
miscell fees $5
subtotal - $201 + nearly 15% HST = $230K OTR.

gooter80

ya, probably something in that range. I would guess the $180 includes freight and pdi ($2k?) and I'm sure there's at least a $500 admin fee plus any other stuff like air excise tax. Typically MB dealers add all of this stuff and the lux tax to the prices now when listing on their websites. I would guess the car itself is in the low/mid $170s

bobblehead

MB freight/pdi fees alone are going for nearly $4K nowadays .. believe it or not. the freight part is pretty well fixed but the pdi fee part is whatever dealer wants to charge.

I.T. Guy

My contract (which they haven't officially cancelled, or given my my deposit back):
E63S4MS - E63 S 4MATIC+ Wagon $189,000
Admin Fee $495
Tricor Registration Fee $289
Ontario Tire Stewardship $29
Air Excise Tax $100
Freight & PDI $3,495
Lux Tax $18,730.76
OMVIC Fee $10
Wheel Locks $235 (lol)
Total Sales Price $212,384.56
HST Tax $27,609.99
Total Purchase Price $239,994.55

The $189,000 is/was to be adjusted up or down to actual MSRP and options prices at delivery, since at the time of my order the prices were not in their computers yet. *SUBJECT TO MSRP, RATES, RESIDUALS AND PROGRAMS AT TIME OF DELIVERY

The US Final Edition Wagon is 176,000 USD so that is 238,000 CAD ......not including all the other shenanigans you guys get charged.... I'm guess a Final Edition Wagon in Canada will easily get close to 300,000 CAD

I.T. Guy

That's some pretty expensive stitching and stickers
LOL

RevisionCuda

100% not worth it imho.

Once the cars are here a feeding frenzy will start since you either want or don't want to be part of an extremely exclusive club 🌎 worldwide ONE OF 999.
Or you can be a " Nouveau Riche." in a shinny red Ferrari or bright orange Lamborghini.
the price of exclusivity can be high sometimes.

taphil

There's always going to be a special edition 1/99 or 1/999 of some car from some maker of some type somewhere. GM, Ford, Toyota, etc.

M5THIS

Yeah, Toyota is discontinuing the Camry....not seeing people trying to get 1 of 999,999 😂
But again it's a free country to each its own.

taphil

Yeah I'm saying the hunt and battle for one can be fun, or rather boring if you have enough money, and then after there will be another limited edition to move on to.

M5THIS

I think you're missing a small detail here....it's the last V8 in an E63....the next E63 is either going to be a total fiasco similar to the C63 4 cyl or a mild fiasco with a V6 and an interior that looks like a Tesla.
