SLK 55 AMG
Maybe Future S and CL 63 Engines, and maybe in the SLK

Someone brought up that the SLK 55 AMG will be changed to a SLK 63 AMG in 2007 or so. I found a website, below, that explains the future S and CL 63 AMG. Now it says these 63 AMG engines will produce 444 hp. Wait! doesn't the SL 55 AMG produce something like 490 hp and guessing all other 55 AMGs, other than the C 32 AMG, CLK, SLK 55 AMG, produce around 490 hp. So why would a 6.3 liter engine produce less horsepower than the 5.5 liter engines already. If these 6.3 liter engines come into production and have less horsepower in the car, then all the 55 AMGs will be worth more in value and can be one of those exotic dream cars. I would be happy if I got my SLK 55 AMG to be a 63 AMG because I get more horsepower, but my 55 AMG will have a higher value. I will by a SLK 63 AMG and keep my SLK 55 AMG. SLK 55 AMG is the first car I have ever gotten so I am not letting it go. And every other hot car I get. Check the website out, it is translated to English, so give it time if you have a slow connection.

This website says something about the 63 AMG engines, but it says in the year 2001, so maybe someone got some stuff mixed up.

This website mentions the CL 63 AMG but in year 2002,

However, I think there could be a SLK 63 AMG, but really they would just make it a 65 AMG. You can thank the wanna be cool cars (corvette c6, that cadalac <--- can't even spell it.) that have 400 to 500 hp.
