Dont you remember this....
How bmw guys used to bash our 5.5 supercharge engines and making lame excuses like oh they needed a superchager to make so much power when m5 got it out of 5.0 V10.... and now AMG 6.3 V8 is the most powerfull engine in the world.... I find it funny lol
Or maybe im just boared?

SL 65 AMG and E63s AMG
510 HP, that's more than the 7 liter Z06. I thought that it would less than Chevy's. Is that the difference in ratings in Europe vs America?

The rest of the time it struggles to get under 6 sec! It is not a super fast luxury car that you enjoy driving every day but "a race car with leather seats"
that's hard to live with for a number of reasons on a day to day basis.
And it looks like crap!
