May 2023/April 2024 Yes, I have spotted two R 63s in my spotting career! The last time an R 63 was spotted on AG in Italy it was June 2012, almost 12 years ago, and if we look for the only other Italian example we'll see it was posted on AG in July 2008, almost 16 years ago! Then in a few minutes I have totally zeroed those incredible numbers haha, while the other example was a tourist, this one is local of Turin, and I actually had some pics from before the other R 63 spot but I didn't really like them, I chased this car for years as it was never parked and when it stopped the owner was always in the car and he never gave me too positive vibes, so I never dared to ask him if I was allowed to spot his car, then I have finally found it parked near my barber at the half of May 2023, and then I also took a couple pics with my pol filter on the first day of April 2024 (Pics N.1 and 10), with this spot I have spotted approximately 1% of the total production of this very rare Mercedes cars, as just 200 (or at least a number close to it) were made! While the car from Florence was in perfect shape, this Turinese example is sadly full of damage, between the spot of May 2023 and the two pics from April of this year some of the damaged parts were repaired but the car is still far from being in a the shape deserved by a so rare car! P.s. The car's color seems to be champagne or something like that, I have selected grey as I think is the closer color to it but feel free to correct that haha.

Holy shit, this rare model is being treated like your average C200 K, lmfao. Still a great spot, man, just like the other R 63 you uploaded.

Veramente triste com’è stata trattata questa, addirittura non rimettere il coprifaro per anni mi sembra esagerato… peccato

@JoepCarSpots I hope that too, but I don't think it's very likely
@Spyros PETS Yeah mate, I was told that this very rare car is used as an average work vehicle so the mechanical parts are very well maintained but the exterior is left neglected :(
@AB_Carphotography Haha yeah, I was lucky for sure, thanks Andele!
@Chieltje Yeah bro, it's really sad to see a so rare car treated like it's just a piece of metal from a scrapyard
@JJMad Very rare! Thanks mate :)
@mtgt Yeah! A lovely obscure car!
@Nico21 Già viene trattata come un vecchio Sprinter, un vero peccato!
@Dalzzz Grazie Fil! Spero tu riesca a vederne una, sono auto davvero uniche!
@-_sAmU_- Grazie mille Samu!

Nice spot! The owner seems not that passionate about cars, it seems to be just an object for him. Horrible rims.
