E-63 conversion
Are you smoking crack Dude? What are you thinking, dont **** your money away like that. If you like the looks of the e63 buy one, if not keep the look of your e55 and use the money for mods. Just my opinion.

So no, I didn't get rid of my E55 for an E63 - E55 guys aren't going to do that. We just won't go from our E55s to E63s to begin with...

Actually, I made the comment hoping juicee would spend an hour posting videos, providing testimonials and listing corrected time charts to show us why the 63 is a worthy successor to the 55.
Sorry, I was just fishing for a little entertainment.

They are getting close (e63's) 12.40's is pretty respectable. It's only a matter of time before we see some 12.20's in stock trim.

The move will happen when the 63 turns FI from factory.(2010
)Same story as the W210 E55 to the W211 E55 the new body will get the next must have engine. (625 HP.and trick trans)

Okay guys, points all well taken. Speed and quickness are important. Torque is an issue and gives that rush that we all crave. What some desire is the overall package, and the 63 does have certain advantages over the 55, granted?
Still, give us ONE documented case where someone on this board with an E63 has just said "ah fuchit", got rid of the slow poke and got back in something like Derick's or any 55....just one? Did I miss that post?
