probably cheaper to buy an Audi which has a superior quattro system. RS6 is a sick car!!!!! New S6 comes out in a few months but is lacking in hp. Audi did a nice job on the new S6 in my opinion.

something fast

I heard or maybe I read here that a fortune 500 ceo was having renntech install 4 matic to his e55 sedan or wagon??? So I guess it is possible with the right size wallet.

i like to ride my bike

AMG did it for the W210 so it shouldn't be that big of a problem

e55amg w210

There was a CLS 55 MKB (620 hp) 4-matic on sale in Moscow for 250 000 EUR. They said it was world's first CLS 55 4-matic. I didn't find any info on German MKB site, so i suppose that car was made by their dealer in Moscow.
That car was reviewed in Top Gear Magazine (russian edition).

I think it is possible to fit stock 4matic system to an E55.
Or fit E55 engine and tranny on to 4matic.
You will have to improve some things in there and reprogram computers.
I don't know why Mercedes won't do 4matic AMGs....would be a perfect alternative to RS6 and likes.
