The Appeal
If you’ve got the funds and you love cars then asking yourself the question ‘I wonder if…?’ can lead to some very interesting places. Just ask the owner of this remarkable 2017 E63S.
It is the result of an idle chat between friends. They wanted to see just how far a stock E63S could be pushed. A £30,000 shopping spree through the Westeic, Wagner and Capristo catalogues brings us here.
Don’t be fooled by the stock E63S trim, although we guarantee your fellow road users likely will be. Running at over 900bhp this car, in the words of its owner, could likely spin the world on its axis.
The work has been completed by the highly regarded Weistec in California and is backed by full service history, including a recent service. An already highly specified car it comes to us with low mileage and a long MOT too.
This is a genuine one-of-a-kind car in full sleeper specification.

Quick Mercedes-Benz saloons have never trumpeted their competence and this example leans deeply into that theme. Finished in Obsidian Black with black exterior trim and badging, only a set of red calipers offer any clue to what this car may be.
Inside the sense of restraint continues with black leather and light aluminium highlights. It is a very highly specified car and one that reflects its low mileage. The bodywork is unmarked, likewise the wheels, and the oft-used interior features like the driver’s seat and steering wheel betray few signs of age or traffic.
The Mechanics
- 4litre V8 twin-turbo
- 9 speed automatic gearbox with sequential shift option
- Air suspension and active adjustable dampers
- Tuned to 900bhp by Weistec in California
The standard E63 already had a reputation for tyre-smoking lunacy, echoing the similarly wayward appeal of the original 6.9litre 450SEL. This car turns the standard E63 into something altogether more pedestrian. This is not so much as dialled up to 11 as dispensing with the dial entirely.
All of the work was entrusted to Weistec in California, specialists in this sort of extreme makeover. You can read about the specification above. The result is a 900bhp fire-breathing monster that must surely be amongst the fastest saloon cars currently on British roads.
Putting our sensible caps back on, it behoves us to let you know that this is a low mileage car with full service history. It has been serviced recently, together with replacing the brakes and tyres. There is a long MOT to August 2024 with no advisories.
