2008 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Estate

Screen Shot 2013-05-07 at 7.14.23 PM

Need to haul a bunch of stuff around at neck breaking speeds? Today is your lucky day. Love doing burnouts and getting strange looks from confused bystanders? Today is your lucky day too! The E63 AMG Estate is a car that car guys get but most others don’t. Why does a station wagon have 500+ hp and sound like a hungry lion trapped outside of a New York Deli? Because wildly fast and ridiculous wagons make the world a better place. The 2008 AMG wagon is located in my lovely city by the bay and needs a new home.

I believe there were 153 E63 wagons produced and only 62 of those left the factory in 2008 making this a pretty rare breed of AMG. This would be the perfect SF hoonmobile. If I got my hands on this wagon San Francisco could forget about their fog issue as I would be leaving enough tire smoke at every street intersection to keep the city in the clouds year round. The M156 NA 6.2 is the best sounding V8 Mercedes has ever built and was originally developed for DTM racing. Let’s hope this wagon goes to a good owner who isn’t afraid to let the lion out and allow us all to enjoy the sweet sounds from Großaspach.

2007 Volvo V70R

We have a thing for fast wagons here at GCFSB. While this Volvo V70R doesn’t hail from Germany it does possess the right qualities to be featured among some of our favorite German muscle. The V70 has been a staple for hauling families and groceries for over fifteen years. What many people seem to forget is the second generation model came available as a 300hp, AWD estate that had the ability to leave many Porsche Boxster owners shocked at the stop light. This particular Baltimore wagon is a 2007 that came with the row-your-own 6-speed and looks to be in good condition.

Year: 2007
Model: V70R
Engine: Turbo Inline -5
Transmission: 6-Speed manual
Mileage: 84,500
Price: $21,000

2007 Volvo V70R on Craigslist

Owner is quick and to the point:

2007 Volvo V70R, 300 hp, 6-speed manual, black sapphire metallic, tan leather interior, 84,500 mi, brand new Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires, new angle gear, professionally detailed inside and out, well maintained, must see

I love the R wagons and tried tirelessly to get my dad to look at one when they came out in 2004. He ended up with the normally-aspirated 2.4 I5 and loved it for the cargo and fuel economy but I know deep down he wished he had opted for the thrilling R.

Black Sapphire paint adds to the stealth fighter attitude of this R while the tan leather is somewhat less desirable and looking faded in the pictures. There are some standout styling features such as the unique shifter design, blue gauges and gorgeous 18” Pegasus alloys that I’ve been trying to source for my 9-3 for over a year now. That being said, $21,000 is way too much for a 2007 with close to 85K on the clock let alone the lower mileage V70Rs. KBB has this one priced between $14-15K which is reasonable but I think $13.5K is the right price given repair costs that give BMWs a run for their money and start to creep up at this mileage.

1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 Estate

Wagon Week may be over here at GCFSB, but for me, I’ve always got five-doors on my mind. One of my favorite five-doors happens to be the W124 E class. While maybe not as utilitarian as its predecessor, the W123 estate, the W124 had the same rock solid build quality wrapped in slightly more modern sheet metal. This E320 estate for sale in San Francisco represents the final year for the W124. While it’s fairly common to find a few low mileage cabriolets and even coupes and sedans, many of the five-door E320s were used as intended – as a workhorse. Finding a mint one like this is a real treat.

Year: 1995
Model: E320 Estate
Engine: 3.2 liter inline six
Transmission: 4-speed automatic
Mileage: 87,851 miles
Price: Auction – No reserve

1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 Estate on eBay

Selling for no reserve…

Widely popular and very few in supply with low mileage. The 124 E class wagon is one of the best built Mercedes Benz wagons ever made. Sold new on November 14, 1994 San Francisco European Motors Mercedes Benz. Serviced at the dealer with maintenance booklet routinely stamped. This car has been well maintained through out its history. Garaged and in excellent condition overall. This car has never left the Bay Area.

Recently last month, I have repaired many of the major items that are common replacement issues on E class wagons:

*New head gasket
*New main wire harness
*New radiator
*New water pump
*New thermostat
*New coolant tank
*New rear tail gate shocks
*Fluids serviced

All of the major repairs have been performed to the highest standard by a Mercedes Independent shop. Receipts and records will be included with the sale. Car runs excellent and you can drive it home. AC blows cold but center vents not blowing cold air but cold air blows thru side vents fine. Outside temp reading not working. Car has good tread. Tires are Michelin. Brakes are good. Passes smog no problem. All of the electronics are working fine. Windows, door locks, speedo, odometer etc. Transmission shifts smooth and crisp. Email for more info. Clean title in hand.

With the all important wiring harness issue taken care of, along with a few other major repairs, this E320 looks like a pretty solid bet for someone seeking one of these modern classics. With no reserve, I’d suspect this E320 estate might pull somewhere between $6,500 and $8,500, as the W124 estates aren’t quite reaching W123 territory just yet.
