yea dude......welcome to today ;-)

sorry i didnt know what cc stood for.

shouldve thought about it.

so then the engine is EXACTLY the same as the other cars i'm assuming

what are u doing posting on mbworld Vadim, get to work and find that bottleneck(s)

charl1exbr0wn

HEY MAN

it was late, i was pretty buzzed

all i remember is seeing cc on one, and cm cubed on the other so i just assumed it was different.

GOSH HOW SOME MEMBERS ARE SO SMART

UNBELIEVABLE.

Last Emperor

and you know what

all tho i wish charlie brown would spontaneously combust

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

charl1exbr0wn

ey man... wtf.
don't side with me theyre gonna hate me too.
what did i ever do to you to deserve such treatment?

whoover

Man, after two Russians and a Ukrainian you're lucky to still be sane. And have a liver.

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.

nlpamg

tell me about it!

Last Emperor

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.

whoover

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

I am sure that engine was a great engine. The tribute for this engine was the 6.3 sign. That was known all over the world. As a respectable engineering statement, you would say 6.2L for the engine. This is said on the Canadian site. When we nail other people for 1 hp, mistake, companies should be nailed for 1 cm^3.

I am not condoning the misinformation from MB. The tribute piece is questionable at best. So you all have a good point.

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

Vadim @ FD

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.

Poszli w pizdu

whoover

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.

This thread has now taken an odd but interesting linguistic turn.

How I do the the $#!T talking and flame wars.

charl1exbr0wn

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.

whoover

You got this answered right away. 6208 cc = 6208 cm^3. The engines have the same displacement.

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.
