Hot New Mercedes ML63 AMG!!
I'm looking forward to this although I'm not a SUVs fan this Mercedes is looking great and i think it will be a real competitor to the ugly Cayenne Turbo.
INFO:
ML 63 AMG with 462 hp and 600 Nm 6.0 liter V8 AMG (M156) late 2006

Hmmm...never have been a fan of SUVs, but this one looks ok. The back window shape kind of reminds me of that new Cadillac SUV, and those headlights don't seem to fit.
How much does this chunk of metal weigh?

I don't know an exact figure about the weight, but it should be around
2.2-2.4 tonnes with that big 6.3 engine.

I like it. Wheels look ok to me.
It should look even better in black. Can't wait for more pictures and first tests....

Will this be powered by 6.3 V8 or V12 then?
Looks aren't too bad either way, but still not a fan of SUVs..

LOL "I looks really great!"
It is a photoshop pic, but as i learned from other sources this pic is a very close call to the original.
And it's a 6.3 V12 AMG.

:x If you are a close minded BMW fan, then yes everything Mercedes does is pointless.....
EDIT:Ghostbat you are right the new 6.3 AMG engine for the M class is V8, although there is possibility of a V12 6.3 AMG engine

We have ourselves a sharp one. Let me give you a quick lesson about jumping to conclusions.
My father needed to replace his E34 5-series five odd years ago. It was a great car, so he naturally thought why don't just get the new 5? I, the "closed-minded BMW fan", instead recommended an E-class, which he went on to buy, still drives, and is very pleased with.
So keep your petty little comments to yourself. I don't think Mercedes' power game is stupid because i'm a BMW fan, I think Mercedes' power game is stupid because it's stupid. Capice?
