W204 C63 ain't bad.
besides headbolt issues on the early cars. M156 motor itself is solid. 7 speed auto pre MCT era are solid as well.

Any mid-2000s prestige german car is costly if you get someone to work on it.
If you get your head around these cars, its a lot of car for the money.
E55 is the car to go for compared to these e63s if you want more reasonable maintenance costs
