i'm no techie, but between a 6.3 liter AMG engine on the 2007 E63 vs. the 5.4 liter AMG V8 in a 1999-2002 E55...how did MB squeeze out almost 50% more HP for less than 1 iiter displacement? does that mean that there was much for potential untapped on the old V8 also? after all, bmw squeezed 400hp out of their old M5 also w/ less displacement to the 5.4 liter also.

Back on topic, the E63 turned in a great 0-60. S6 isn't close to the M5 or E63 but I can't wait for the new RS6.

You will see how advanced the new AMG 6.2 engine is. I dont think many other engines come close to what AMG did by themselves.
