New AMG Addition to the Family

Just added a 2013 ML63 with PP for the wifey. Never thought I'd love to drive an SUV but this thing is a beast!! The power delivery is more connected than my CLS due to the AWD.

Congrats on the new car. I love the ML63's, big enough to carry what you need without being so big that they are hard to drive in traffic. Not to mention the horsepower which is quite nice.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
Looks good! The chrome plate at the trunk is a little too much for me, but it's all up to the individual.

By the way, I always wonder if MB's AWD system requires all 4 tires to be replaced if one of them gets a non-repairable puncture.

Sweet! AWD in an AMG is definitely a huge plus, especially here in Seattle. I get the traction light to come on all the time when I'm driving the CLK.

BTW, nice matte CLS! What shade is that?

I'd recommend painting those orange markers on the CLS body color. Our NA spec cars stick out like a sore thumb.

I like them both. The pearl white is a great Arizona color.

If I told my girl that I got her a car with the "PP" she would think it had something to do with a mobile washroom. lol

Awesome AMG family.
I really love the wheels on the CLS? Model and price if you don;t mind me asking?
The wait for my 14 CLS 4matic is killing me. I ordered the same color.
Any feedback on the maintenance of the alanite matt paint?

I also just bought my wife the same SUV in black with black leather. Now we fight over it. I'm in the process of deciding whether to get a new 2014 cLS63 amg S in diamond white or black for myself :-) how do you like your CLS?

On a side note I noticed your garage doors. Would you mind posting a pic of them. From what I can see they look great and have been searching for new garage doors and yours look pretty dang close to what I've been looking for. Who made them for you?

Thanks and enjoy the ML, I know I do
