I love my ML63 even though i have the 06-08 model. Its a comfortable ride even with 20"s and sounds great. I have nad no mechanical issues after 27,000kms. Only drama has been a sunroof buitton that you need to hit twice and some engine pinging that was fixed by the dealer.

Go for it

My bro inlaw had a cayenne turbo then a new gen X5 I had the opportunity to use both for a few weeks I think the ML 63 is better, more power better ride IMHO
