I though I would share these pics with you guys here, even though I dont have anything "technical" to tell about them.

This is a E63TT AMG development vehicle that was hit in the R/R.
All of the electronics/test/monitoring equipment installed is impressive.
Note the red "eject" button with cover, (not really)
and Blue line coming out of the ME unit (called ecm here)
Enjoy!

wow, those posted way bigger than I wanted. Sorry.

This car is loaded, even with ceramic brakes. Too bad, as it will eventually be crushed as all these pre-production cars are.

Where exactly is this? Nice find.

Wait what?

This car will be crushed why?

Is it only me, or is anyone else already dreaming about the first "salvage" 2012 E63TT that can be pillaged for its engine & transmission?

Imagine an E55 with that glorious engine and a transmission that can do those awesome throttle-blipping downshifts... I wonder how complicated the swap would be if you got all the associated ECUs and TCU?

Looks like a factory development car, not a production car. There probably isn't even a valid VIN on it.... Usually factory test mules get crushed... Sad, but true.

So who confirms that it's crushed?

I would swap out the brakes and replace them with duds.

First thing that came to mind! That would be awesome to do.
