New E63 AMG "S-Model" with AWD

585HP AWD and 0-100kph in 3.6 seconds. This thing needs to hurry up and depreciate like crazy so I can buy one. lol

This is the most excited I have been about a car since the E55 was introduced.

Honestly I don't care what I have to do, I am getting one!

Do I really need two livers?

BTW....GAME *** OVER!!!!!!

This. No need to buy a car you're not in love with. The looks will need time to grow on me but the performance? FMR! It's been a while since I've been truly excited about a car and the W211 E55 was it.

I saw pics of it today and not really feeling the styling. I actually like the CLS63 S styling. Hopefully it will grow on me...if not I'd plunk down the money for the CLS63.

It seems the E63 has that "organic" (for a lack of a better term) look up front and then the rear got boxy...the CLS seems to flow better.

BUT the performance numbers for such a heavy car...outstanding.

I'm with you. The 2014 E (round->square) doesn't flow like the 2013 (Square->square)

acceleration

zero to 60 could be 3 flat, right? benz was about a half second too conservative with the numbers for last years e63 and cls63, so this 3.5 second quote for the S AWD model should really be 3.0.....amazing....with some choice tuning upgrades these cars will be almost untouchable....wondering now if the all new S class 65 models will be AWD too?

It doesn't matter. Most people will only see the square part with those HP/TQ numbers.

so "S" is basically AMG performance pack ?

They should've stayed with the normal terms "S" short for Sports I suppose is mostly used by Japanese vehicles

Holy crap...this is down right insane. Sucks to not be rich right about now.

I actually really like the styling, and love the interior. Can't wait till 2020.

Head lights are the first thing i noticed and they look great yes plus 2 this thing will be a big hit. I just hope they improved the suspension and the way the car handles.

I really love the new design! Wow, I too am very excited! I'm a big fan of the timeless round headlight e class look, but this is something I hopefully will be able to park in my garage right next to my w211 E63!

Yeah, kidney....that's what I meant

Poor Audi.
They have had the advantage in acceleration tests below 120mph for too long.
For their same The rumors I hear of an RS7 with a twin turbo V10 better be true.

I have already started the conversation with the wife. I figure I have until December of 2014 to convince her or get divorced...DO NOT ask me too chose between this new (warrantied) beast and you
