The E63/E64 generation ran from 2003 to 2010, and the F12/F13/F06 generation ran from 2011 to 2018, so a boot lid from one generation will not fit the other — the bodywork is completely different. Within the E63/E64 (2003–2010) or within the F12/F13/F06 (2011–2018), year alone matters less than body style, so confirm which body style you have before searching. Always confirm exact fitment with the breaker against your registration.
Both 2013 and 2016 fall within the F-series generation (2011–2018), which is a good starting point, but you must also match body style — the F12 Convertible, F13 Coupé, and F06 Gran Coupé each have a completely different rear end and their boot lids do not interchange with one another. Assuming you have the same body style in both cases, fitment is plausible, but mid-generation pressing changes can occur, so confirm with the breaker against both registrations before buying.
Yes — body style is the single most important factor for this part. The F13 Coupé, F06 Gran Coupé, and F12 Convertible (which has a separate soft-top mechanism and a smaller boot lid) are all built on the same F-series platform but have entirely different rear pressings that will not swap across body styles. Always tell the breaker which body style you have, not just the generation or year.
Trim level does not affect the sheet-metal pressing of the boot lid itself, so an SE, Sport, or M Sport lid from the correct generation and body style will physically fit your car. You may notice cosmetic differences such as a different badge location, bootlid spoiler (M Sport variants often carry a subtle lip spoiler), or the absence of a rear camera cut-out, so check those details with the breaker if they matter to you. The lid will fit regardless of trim, but factor in any finishing differences before you buy.
No — the E63 Coupé and E64 Convertible share the same platform and ran concurrently from 2003 to 2010, but their rear bodywork is completely different and the boot lids are not interchangeable. The Convertible's boot lid is shaped around the folding roof mechanism and is unique to that body style. Make sure you specify Coupé or Convertible when asking a breaker for a quote.
A listing like that is too vague to rely on — you need to confirm the generation (E63/E64 for 2003–2010, or F12/F13/F06 for 2011–2018), the exact body style (Coupé, Convertible, or Gran Coupé), and ideally the donor car's registration or VIN. Ask the breaker to check those details against your own registration before agreeing to anything, as returning a large panel is costly and not always possible.
Fitment guidance is general and mistakes can happen - vehicle specifications vary and manufacturers make mid-production changes. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the supplying breaker before buying.
