Thanks for posting.

All the early reports said the W205 was getting the M177.

Now they're saying a de-tuned version of the M178.

Yeah but we expected that it would be de-tuned. They're saying about 480hp. I wonder how much the s-model will come with.

Good question. It would be great if it did this time.

510hp is not bad at all...& lighter. 600hp is probably easily obtainable which would be plenty enough for me.

510 is what is floating around the rumor mill for the S. A tune can easily boost that up, though.

thats what i am thinking. I am planning on doing exhaust work and tune with my C63. Not sure if the S would even be worth it.

It's also depends on what else is offered with the S. If it's just 30hp, I don't think it's worth it.

It's not just power. There will be suspension tweaks, and other differences such as interior and brakes. At least, that's what's being said. We won't know until October.

I think there are exterior differences also.

The only exterior difference will be that the trunk badge will read "S///AMG"

Would cost too much to change the exterior physically for just one model. We may see a different diffusor or something like that, but that's about it. I think.

I didn't say anything about changing the body. I said exterior differences. "Minor visual tweaks"

This might turn out to be the package to get if they can make a decent package. for power and handling.
