Outside of always wanting one, I really don't know much about these cars, but I'm excited to dig in and learn. Here's the basics from the PO's ad.
I still need to unpack the car from all the parts and bits he included, but hopefully I'll get some of my own photos up soon.

2007 Mercedes-Benz E63 Wagon - Estate S211 / W211
Imgur https://imgur.com/a/F3EZgpS
Mileage: 146,xxx
Exterior: Flint Gray Metallic 7.5/10
Interior: Black Napa Leather 9/10
Modifications and OEM/OEM+
-Headbolts updated w/OEM (2012+) M156 headbolts, tappet/lifters replaced at same time, valve cover powder coated, some coolant lines, coolant tank and thermostat also replaced 124K miles (this was preventative not reactive)
Album of work: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B_ZgQBYLZaVULU5RaFZHX1Z6U1k?usp=sharing
-ARH (American Racing Headers) Long tube catless headers ceramic coated (these were originally catted but the cats cracked and ARH wanted absurd money to replace, a weekend with a MIG and some 3” band clamps solved that) – this car will not pass an emissions test
-Weistec oil catch can / oil/air separator, checked every 2,500 miles, little to no blow by.
-Weistec trans pan (+2 q of fluid)
-Weistec spark plugs (step colder brisk plugs)
-Eurocharged V7 tune, I have the handheld but I think it’s dead--car was tuned at Eurocharged Orlando
-AFE dry filters with ROW air boxes
-OEM euro convex mirrors
-COMAND with Bluetooth puck removed and swapped for a Carplay unit (COMAND and puck included)
-Shardul underdrive pulley’s
-OEM spare tire and compressor– shoehorned under the 3rd row seats
-3M crystalline tint 40% all glass, 70% windshield
-OEM roof rack and 3 OEM bike racks

-mounted and hidden hardware (not hardwired) 2 channel (front/back) Blackvue dashcam with Wi-Fi downloading/updates
-front laser shifters mounted in lower grill, kill switch by drivers left knee
-lowering links in front only, I think it was a turn and half on the nut. It’s low enough to alleviate the Euro reverse rake not look lowered.
-The rear fenders are lightly rolled, I did have 19” HRE wheels and the clear the semi aggressive offset I rolled the fenders
-I coded out the corning fog lights (add this to the bad, one is cracked)
Maintenance (done in the last 2 years 20K miles)

-air suspension compressor
-Arnott airbags (driver front still OEM)
-OEM brakes- rotors, pads, e-brake done 120K
-rear flex disc

-power steering reservoir replaced to elevate groan
-all 8 coil packs
-replaced the gauge cluster (swapped the brain to retain mileage) due to flickering gas gauge
-keyless go (drivers handle and gear select button)
-numerous 02 sensors, these go about every 5K miles and are about $100 on amazon
