I've ordered Black (code 040) with almond beige leather. Still have a month to go...

How do you find the power, sound and handling? Though I imagine the exhaust is a bit quiet until it has done a bit of mileage and opens up more.

I look forward to seeing your aero kit and fender extension.

Sorry for the late reply, I know how you are feeling now of waiting until delivery.please post pics when delivered.Power is more than adequate but make sure you drive in sport to get the best out of it.Soundwise is a bit disppointing when standing still but get better as you drive and start revving it up ,thinking of a custom exhaust but have to wait until all other mod are finish

Sweet car. I can't wait to see how the kit looks on there!

BTW I see you're in Australia. I just traveled there last summer and had a blast- also plenty of nice cars to see there.

I visited NSW (Sydney) and Queensland (Cairns). Sydney had a few interesting cars, saw a few high ends with body kits like a Cayenne.

Didn't get a chance to stop by Melbourne- next time though!

I am thinking about an exhaust with a valve system... Checkout YouTube with the brabus ml63 exhaust it s pretty loud! I Will either get this one or the one from Vath. So you are saying to put the 63 in sports mode plus and sport for the suspension? How does it handle over putholes is sport mode? Enjoy the ride you Lucky Man

i think they are taking orders for the titan exhaust.regarding the handling I am no expert in giving technical comments but i will give you my first impression.I have been driving in sport mode [suspension]ever since I had the car,At initial turn in there seems to have some degree of body roll but correct itself quickly with a slight throttle .I SUPPOSE THE SPORT + MODE would eliminate this problem which I am going to try tomorrow.SORRY I can not be more informative.,hopefully other owners will have a btter write up cheers

We now have a video posted with our sound clips from the off-road downpipe on the ML63 here. It's funny how different it sounds from the other models with the off-road downpipes.

https://mbworld.org/forums/ml55-amg-...able-sale.html

Congrats on the new ride. The black ML63 in the HRE picture is ours that we used in this video. I'm glad you like the wheels, they look great on the truck.

thanks, and that is a great video, I think you have what I have been looking for ,something is simple to install and does not require cutting and welding ,most of all it is reversible. Do you do international orders? cheers and thanks for reply
