[@ckaparos]

Currently own a 2021 E63S FL and prior to this many E63 and E55 spanning over the past 15 years. I will not buy a W214 simply because there is no V8 i will probably look toward the next M5 and i have never owned a BMW. Sadly MB and AMG will lose more and more loyal customers as they phase out their V8s.

[@DPCcars]

Let's not forget, the V8 in the pre-facelift W213 is more than just an engine, it's a piece of art that resonates with the soul of every car enthusiast. That growl is iconic! Honestly, I feel like the pre-facelift versions are going to become collector's items soon enough. Especially as we venture further into the era of smaller engines and electric powertrains. Also, to everyone debating on trading in their C63s for an E63s or vice versa, just remember that the value isn't only monetary; it's emotional. These cars are about more than just resale value; they're about the joy they bring to our lives. But if you're going to keep one long-term, my bet's on any variant with that glorious V8.

I have a 2018 (w213/c238) e400 coupe. I don't think cars from other manufacturers have caught up to the w213 in terms of luxury and design, and MB itself has gone backwards with their cut+paste capacitive touch interiors. I plan on upgrading my E-coupe to a newer of the same to drive daily and getting my hands on either a 222 S560 with a Designo interior spec or a 213 E63 sedan to keep. This is the modern dark ages for cars.

The preface lift us just simply more beautiful

[@v12-s65]

it depends. I also love the pre lci but not only for the looks. I believe the rear of the facelift is beside of the exhaust pipes much nicer. However the iwc clock and 2019 amg steering wheel make the previous interior so much better in my opinion

I have to finally say something- your page is remarkable. Your passion and knowledge paired with creativity, timeliness, wit, and flawless delivery is unparalleled. You do such an amazingly great job with AMG content. It’s truly remarkable.

I have been a big fan since day 1 and I always took for granted your content. I thought the days of hammering v8’s would never end. Here’s to the future of AMG! Thank you.

[@waverleyjournalise5757]

I don't understand how Mercedes have managed to handle this whole situation so badly. For a manufacturer famed for their V8 engines above *everything* else, who produced some of the most emotional, brutish and muscular cars in the last decade... and they've cut out their soul. Bragging rights sells these cars, not just horsepower and technology, and when you're chatting in the carpark with your mates, the last thing you want is to look at their M5 or RS6 and think "If only I had 4 more cylinders".

[@ahemgee9542]

The Pre FL front end looks much more aggressive, can't be confused with an E43 and sounds better also. Pedant comment : the Hammer's engine was bored AND stroked to increase displacement - not just bored, like all MB - AMG enhanced engines.

So good. However the introduction of the flatplane-crank kind of made the sound of the V8 a bit too clean, but still very desirable!

[@AYO_KO]

No ambient lights in the air vents just look crazy now😂 GT63s spoiled me.

[@3V4NG3L10NN]

The 4Matic+ is nice, but adds weight and i still haven't figured out why they would not let you choose which ESP mode you want to use in "drift mode". You must switch ESP completely off which is very dangerous on public roads. So if you just want to enjoy your car in RWD mode and drive it like a C63s W205 for example, you always have to fear to hit the next tree if you are not careful...

[@user-lg5uh8sr3d]

4matic+ is the worst. Nothing like a real RWD, that’s why the new AMG GT is really bad

[@v12-s65]

that makes no sense at all. Why would you want RWD but then have the Esp system cut the power? What's the point then if you could leave it in 4 matic, an already rear biased awd system?

[@3V4NG3L10NN]

@@v12-s65 That's probably what the engineers where thinking 😉 If you already have the possibility to provide an authentic RWD feeling, why not let the driver choose the ESP setting? If you want to drift you could still select RWD mode and ESP off.

I was so close to trading up my 21 C63 estate to an E63, but then the night package bits on the front end started discolouring. They now look blueish. Mercedes say its not a problem and wont replace. Seems to be a common problem as they have a used car on the lot with the same problem. So do I want to spend another chunk of cash on a future classic when i will be worrying about glass black parts tuning blue in under 2 years?? Sadly not. My first ever Mercedes too

Now that you mention it, it’ll probably be the C class considering they aren’t going back to V8 until 2026. Maybe the new E Class will have a nice 6 Cylinder so it won’t be that bad. But from 8 to 4, yeah idk

No point getting an E63..is just worse than the M5 on every metric. Nowhere near as comfortable as an M5/M5 competition. DCT isn't as good as the Torque converter for daily driving. BMW M5 also kills it on a 1/4 mile with more power and less weight. The handling is better too. Then there's an M5 CS which is more sports focussed and visceral. So where exactly does that leave the E63s? Not to mention the terrible Mercedes build quality and infamous interior creeks. The M5 class of cars..is still dominated by BMW M5 Sure the sound is good, but nowhere loud and visceral as the optional extra ///M performance titanium racing exhaust.
