Definitely want that trunk lid spoiler on mine. However, not a real fan of the front though. I guess I can skip over the 63 and wait for the W212 or jump on to a new R230 like Marcus Frost.

I believe the next generation E-Class, the W212 E63 will get the Bi-Turbo
M157 V8. Hp should be in the neighborhood of 550 or better.

Look's like they went back to the older style center arm rest console which should be more comfortable but doesn't look as good as the wood door.
I don't like the black backed gauges.
I do like the new front air dam but it's not that much different
I like the current AMG rims better and I prefer the current tail lights.

Notice the louvers (lines) on the upper headlamps? I hope the US Wagon gets privacy glass tint. What are the OEM wheel and tire sizes?

The M156 DOHC 6.2liter V8 used in the E63 is 55lbs lighter than the SOHC Kompressor V8 in the E55. This engine is about 90lbs lighter than the V-10 engine used in the M5!
Look like the E63 AMG is still using Airmatic but thay improved it to AirmaticDC. I wonder why MB gave the CLK63 ABC and not The E63!

I like the looks of the new E63, but I think the differences are not significant. I like the front grill & ofg lights, but it's not a big differnce. I like the both wheels. I am curious about the handling difference, as I think the E55 drives beautifully. I guess the point of this car is to make the track performance comparable to the M5...I think BWMs handle better around turns, but I like MBs better straight away.

Your worst nightmare...
All I have to say is that the E63 is one serious and mean looking car, regardless if it doens't have LSD or ABC, I am sure the techs at the AMG power plant want to keep the reputation of this AMG beast, something must be better than the current E55. Until we don't drive it and hear the testimonies of people that will own it I don't want to make assumptions. But damn that car looks HOT!
