2021 MERCEDES-BENZ AMG GLE 53 COUPE 4MATIC

The auction record lists the vehicle’s condition as “Clear” and identifies the primary damage as “Rear.” Stage 1’s photo-based assessment reports that the visible evidence contradicts the “Clear” condition designation and supports the rear-damage classification, with extensive missing and exposed rear components visible. The rear bumper cover, outer bumper trim, and associated rear bumper assembly are missing, exposing the bumper structure and inner body components. Both rear tail-lamp assemblies are absent, leaving open lamp cavities with visible wiring and inner body components. The rear liftgate and rear window are also missing, leaving the cargo area fully open. Additional rear exterior trim is absent, with exposed inner panels, wiring, and mounting points around the cargo opening and both rear corners. The right and left rear wheel-arch moldings are missing, exposing mounting holes and unfinished panel edges. Rocker-panel trim is absent along the visible lower side sill, with fastener and mounting points exposed; scuffed unfinished edges are visible in one area. Light, broad scuffing and discoloration are reported on the right rear quarter panel below and behind the rear side window. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GLE 53, identified as a GLE-Class four-door MPV coupe/SUV with a 3.0-liter, six-cylinder M256 gasoline engine, turbocharging, and a nine-speed automatic transmission. The decoded vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz North America in Vance, Alabama, and is specified with left-hand drive and 21-inch front and rear wheels. The damage findings indicate that substantial rear-area replacement and reassembly work will be required; the condition of components not visible in the findings should be verified through a thorough physical inspection.
