I think the engine in different models is actually different litters, I think it was the same with the 55 - in like the SLK it was like 5L no super charger or some ****... I think that the engine might be 6.3L in the biggest model of car with the highest output - I am not sure, this is my speculation and I remember seeing some of this somewhere - looking for feedback, not people telling me I am wrong, because I very well may be.
