Got a hold of Final Edition build sheet. Didn't know it had black brake calipers. That's cool. Lots of options missing, particularly for bloated $176,913 MSRP, including ceramic brakes, multicontour front seats, ventilated front seats, soft-close doors, heated rear seats, acoustic comfort package, etc. Perhaps some of those are included in DV8 FINAL EDITION. For example, we know it includes interior carbon fiber trim but the $2,850 option doesn't appear on build sheet.

Can anyone confirm it's 175K because If it is I don't think I am going to go through with it at that price, since I could buy another similar car for less.

I want another one for the East Coast! Unfortunately Son won't graduate Georgia Tech until 2026. All are not able...
Not so sure I want a Final Edition anymore. Lots of missing options.
Heads up display
Rear AC control
CCB brakes
Massage seats.
Rear airbags.
Comfort package.....
I wish there was a way to check DV8 option and what it has.
Apparently dealers are charging $50k over MSRP and people are paying it
If I were in charge of the Final Edition it would have a centered front camera (an atrocity, fire entire design team over it lol), ceramic brakes as standard and no yellow stitching. Common sense. Hahaha

Yup people are paying for it because it's limited and the last of the V8's for E63S AMG breed.

Other than the build sheet I guess the other way is find a monroney sticker with the options.
I doubt this is helpful as very very likely it is completely different but on the C 63 S Final Edition, this is what DV8 includes: DV8 C 63 S Final Edition ($36,363.00): AMG Crest on C-Pillar, 19'/20' AMG Forged Cross Spoke Wheels w/Black Inserts, Black Brake Calipers, Grey Exterior Sport Decals on Front Hood and Doors, AMG Matte Carbon Fiber Centre Console, Dark Aluminum Door Trim, Interior Edition Badge, Yellow Illuminated Door Sills, Edition specific Floor Mats, and Edition-Specific Car Cover
Bought a 2016 BMW bc didn’t love 2018 E body style and no 550s, still currently looking!

can confirm, was just at dealership yesterday and now it’s at $226,000. Mostly due to market adjustment and the Final Edition details on the car. On sales sheet some options were still listed at $1 so I think it will continue to go up. I love the car, but price is kind of nuts. And they’re taking $5000 non-redundable deposits - those people are going have serious sticker shock when the cars arrive. In my area they are 3 months out.
I think it will go up more tbh

Also seems to be missing soft close doors, air balance package, heated rear seats and Burmester 3D. I would never buy this car because of so many missing options. Don't know why MB does this?

It's a bit outrageous. However, I'm pretty sure there will be those that will line up to buy a "final edition" believing it will hold, or, gain value. If that weren't the case MB wouldn't inflate the price like they have. I personally don't have a problem with it. If someone has the money and wants to spend it one one, go for it. It makes me appreciate my 2021 just alittle bit more.
Is $170K that much more than a similarly equipped 2021/2022?
My 2021 isn't equipped with everything, but, it does have active multi contour seats with massage, soft close doors, warmth and comfort package, adaptive lighting and some other packages. The sticker was around $116,000.00 before tax and title. When you consider the bottom line of over $226,000.00 shown on the price sheet above, I think it's a bit much, but, that's me. Others may have a different opinion and that is fine also.
The $226K is the bottom line, MB get's the $170K and the dealer/taxman get the rest. Based on the inflation in prices for cars $116K in 2021 equated to $132.5K now (14.3%). So MB is charging a $37K (approx) premium for a limited (final) edition. That is a big jump but this is definitely a supply & demand situation and it would be interesting to see what price premium there were for other final edition vehicles. This case I feel is a bit unique, as what comes next won't be a V8. It'll probably be a hybrid with a 4 cyl. The sound difference between a 4Cyl and a V8 is worth the $37K to a lot of people, at least the 300 that can get it.
Also, with the limited run costs are higher so maybe $37K more isn't all profit. I know we would all like to control how much we spend, but we don't HAVE to buy these vehicles. A Chevy/Toyota/Volkswagen will get us to where we're going for a lot less. In high end anything you have to pay to play.
"Market Adjustment" That is a PC way of the dealer saying "We think there are a lot of people that want to buy this vehicle so we're going to charge more because we can"

As I said, I don't have a problem with them charging whatever they like, and, it's fine with me if someone wants to pay it. For me personally, it seems a bit much. I saw a G wagon sell at the Mecum Glendale auction on Saturday for somewhere around $489,000.00. I'm fine with that as well. To each their own.
