Great shots..

Take a look at the MASSIVE air intakes at the bottom....this may be the secret twin turby tester. Who knows, but an entire row of air intakes for an N/A engine??? Remember our cars push 500hp with 2 little oval holes in the front....I got good feelinnnngggssss.

I drive a E55T, SLK55 and 65 Mustang Conv.
I think Wolf is already planning on the E63 being his next car. At least then I'd be able to actually drive MY wagon

More interesting, notice the much needed brake cooling intakes next to the foglights...

I have a feeling the tunability for the N/A motor will not hold a candle to the Kompressor. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Smile It's the 030 Package

I don't think that is the E63, i think thats the 030 performance package for the E55. I know MB is not offering the 030 package for the E55, but that is the same bumper concept as the 030-CLS55. May be MB realized they should offer the 030 package for the E55 also. - Bob

Looking inside the front air dam, there seems to be less hardware...I don't see the intercooler up front...it just looks like some sort of air scoop.

Anyone else notice that or is it just me?
