The trim we'd park in our garage
Look for an E63 S wagon for rarity and strong resale, or a 2021 or newer sedan for the facelift's updated steering wheel and infotainment.
On the test drive
Check the air suspension for sagging or slow leveling and listen for clunks from engine mounts and the transfer case. Pay for an inspection at an independent shop that specializes in the brand.
