I want to take that over the Applecross road, blast along through Glen Coe, and the A87.
After a 4 month wait it's finally ready

Wow - that's some blind outlay - I'm sure you'll love it
My missus was not impressed when I ordered the car without looking at one, but they let me have an E350 estate for the weekend so I figured that that was quick so I shouldn't be disappointed with the E63. I suppose I will find out tomorrow!! :bannana:

I think you will be unique on the forum - I don't recall many (if any) threads or photos of E63's whether W211 or W212.
As a long term E Estate owner I'm looking forward to it.

Great choice of car. AMG's in estate form are even better in my view. Well done...

He's is still out there somewhere, discovering exactly how much faster than a 350 it actually is!

Does it live up to expectations... OH YES
I am currently keeping below 3,000 RPM as suggested by MB but god it is quick, don't think I will ever dare take it over 3,000 RPM!!
The car is amazing, I have been doing a bit of traveling to and from the hospital the last couple of days using a busy A road and keeping with the flow of traffic the computer says on the last 22 mile trip the average was 29.1 MPG which I am amazed at.
Although I have to be careful, I had four cars in front of me today with large gaps between so I thought I would take two then the other two down the next straight, I blipped the go pedal and before I had a chance to think about puling back in I was passed all four and had enough road to take even more!!! Very scary!!
I will stop rambling now.

Here are a few more pics from today
Not sure if I should tint the rear windows, I didn't go for the factory tint as I don't always like the rear windows really black and then the front window clear, at the minute I don't think it needs it, what do you guys think?

I think it's just perfect as it is.
I am just a teeny bit envious !

That's the same steering wheel as I have in my E220 cdi and there in lies the problem I have with the C and E 63's. They don't look different enough from a base sport model. I accept that they have fantastic engines and handling, but for me, I would like it to look a bit more special.
Nice car and I hope you enjoy driving it.
