2010 E550.. Gone but never forgotton - E63 AMG..
Question Amg 5.5 Liter Na V8 ?

http://www.mercedes-amg.com/index2.html

This is kind of confusing. Is this the engine that goes into the E550 ?
If so why is it classified as an AMG ? Am I missing something ?
Once you're on the site, go to the engine room and click on the 5.5L-V8 engine and read.

Thx

Thanks for the reply. I thought that all of the 55 engines were supercharged.

And Mercedes plans to reduce the displacement if the 63 to 5.5 just to add to the confusion.
