Gle 63 amg revealed

Just my opinion but I like my w166 ml63 better :-).

On top of it, I hope they don't install a 4 litre v8


What do you guys think?

I think the X6 is not selling too poorly actually - especially if you consider how ugly it is.

It really does not matter how well/poorly it sells in the U.S.
What matters is how successful it is in Europe and trust me the X6 is doing well.

I can't stand why MB decided to enter the "SAV coupe" spot...these cars are ugly,useless with only 4 real seats,less cargo room than a regular Suv,22 inches tire which can be dangerous due to aquaplaning! But as Elijah has already stated in EU the X6 is selling a lot...

Trust me Sir,
557hp is the minimum Its perfect for a daily driver due to the size/weight of the ml.

If you think Its too much hp, you can just press the C mode for the engine and the fuel economy gets much better :-).

ha....from a guy with a 680hp ML! I can't even get 400hp to the road without some slippage in snow...680 must be a handful.
