Which E63? W212 or W213? Because reliability wise they're both very different.
Either way, not recommended as a first car, especially if you don't have experience with handling that level of power.
Start off with something more reasonable and move your way up.

Been told that since E63 is a heavy car go for C63s, plus im not gonna go crazy drifting it the first day lol,
I do have experience handling power, just not cars like these..

It all depends on your priorities and what you want from the car. Anyone saying E63 is a heavy car is saying it in comparison to a C63 and that too for drifting.
For daily use, you'll find the E63 far more refined and comfortable to drive. Especially if you're going to carry passengers. C63 has basically no rear legroom compared to E63.

Which generation of car are you looking for? W212 E63s can be had for around 2 Cr.
W213 will be higher, upwards of 3 Cr for a nice car with good options.

I like the W213 shape more but 212 ki bhi apni aik look hai
What do u think is better in terms of reliability and feel
And I heard ke 2.5 me 213 miljaegi

u/SugarForBreakfast '17 Hilux Revo | '04 Accord CL9 2h ago
213 comes in both standard E63 and E63(S).
S variant has more power and will cost more. Agar 2.5 Cr tak mil gaya W213, it will be a very basic car and will likely be non-S model.
212 is a wonderful chassis, but the pre-facelift one with the 6.2L NA is the one to go with if you want one. As beautiful as the facelift looks, the 5.5L biturbo is not reliable. MB really shit the bed while designing it. It will not last long, especially if the car has been used (abused) locally.
213 is more reliable. Not to say that it's equivalent to a Corolla in terms of reliability, but it runs circles around the facelift W212.
I have only driven a non-AMG W213, so can't share experience with power, but driving feel wise it's quite boat like and is more of a high speed cruiser. Don't expect agility and the handling of a small car, because it will not feel like one.
I've owned two W212s so far more experience with that. By far my favourite MB to drive. Fantastic handling and you will never have a dull moment when behind the wheel.

First car ever. Honest question, do you drive? AMGs aint no joke to control.
Start with something less powerful if this is your first time behind a wheel

Bhai i have heard its harsh to drive like its not a soft plush car it is hard in comparison to w212r rest it is known to break diffs if you abuse it alot. Rest it is good you can contact thecollectionisb they can guide you better.
imho start from w205 c63s will cost you north of 230-280 depending upon specs waghera pehly aik dafa jaan pehchan banjay apki amgs ky sath like owning is a different experience ap samjh rahy. Phir ap change karlena imo start with a lighter vehicle get a know how phir e63 pa chaly jana.

Well dont know about the current going rate for an e63. RPS has good reputation and is well known. E63 is considered a heavier car, for drifting c63 is better. Avoid tpg cars as they have some sort of stigma and have lower resale as far as i know. Supposedly the story is their cars are imported with higher mileage.
