he should not be bashed for asking that question
what is common knowledge to one person, may not be to another
and besides he was buzzed.....i wouldve made the same mistake too
thats what this forum is for !!!!!!!
to ask questions, have them answered, and bull****....
not to start internet sh*t talking contests
maybe he shoudlve used the search function, but in reality.....if everyone used the search function, there would be like 4 threads on this forum

In the SI system, it is cm^3 and that's it. Nothing called KPH, it is Km/h and so on. What surprised me, is the rounding up to the 6.3 L, which does not make sense on the part of AMG. It is listed as 6.2 in Canada, which is the correct way of rounding the number.

charlie brown, i do side with the fact that you shouldnt get flamed for asking a question!
someone thought it was stupid
but you thought it was good
and you see, i defended you
you however, just like to talk sh*t cuz i post alot
and you flame me for making a thread asking questions also, then you go do the same thing
i practice what i preach dude, and dont have double standards

MB did this as a tribute to history. The original 6.3 V8 was a great engine in its day.

The "63" name and badging is a tribute. Listing "6.3L 32-valve V-8 engine" as a technical spec is lying.

Still, that old 6.3L was sweet (as is the 6.2L).

The reason 6208 cc is called 6.3L has to do with German car tax laws.
By their law displacement has to be rounded up, the bigger the engine the more taxes they have to pay. You can see why it would benefit German tax authorities.
And of course the history of AMG is involved too.

I guess this brings this argument to rest. But for engineers, I don't think they will round up. In reality the engine is 6.2L. It will be a long shot to bring 0.08 L to 1.

I'm not sure what is going on in this thread but it has been enjoyable.
A big hug to all of you. You know. One of those hugs where it goes a little too long and makes both of us uncomfortable. In the end we kind of hit each other on the back really hard.

Interesting. In mat, pizda is another of the four base words (along with huy, blyad and ebat). [I earlier said it was based on Carlin's seven dirty words, but it's really only built on four.] In fact, Emperor kicked this thread off with an English epithet that really has no equivalent it mat. A 2003 article in the New Yorker by Victor Erofeyev states:
Unlike other languages, Russian obscenity is rooted entirely in sexuality. Defecation is not part of cursing, and the Russian word for "***-hole" is too cumbersome for expressive purposes.
So Russian mat gets along fine with four base words.
Pizda is the female equivalent of huy in Russian mat. (Interestingly, huy comes from khvoya, "pine needle," which is something that *****s.)
Can I assume pizdu has the same meaning in Polish? If so, is more Polish cursing based on the female part? There are plenty of pizdacurses in Russian too, but khuy seems more expressive there.

funny, i just read through 45 posts and i realize that none of them contain the answer pertaining to the original question.
Vadim, instead of telling me to search, which i did and found nothing, you could just have given me a yes/no answer.
good for you.

i was talking to my friend about the c63 engine being bottlenecked, and he told me to check up on the displacement of the engine. so i went to the website, and i compared the engine specs of the c63 with that of the e63.
displacement is as follows:
6208 cc for c63
6208 cm ^3 for e63 (thats cm cubed by the way)
so does anyone know what this means?
ps. apologies if this has been posted i cant really keep up whilst last emperors threads flood the forum

Are you asking why does an S63 develop more power than a C63? Mostly because of exhaust plumbing. But that's not what you asked.
