yup, I think AMG tries to offer them on all of their cars.

I wonder what the wagon would top out at with the electronic limiter removed... 200Mph+?

If it is limited to 186, definitely more than 200 if unlocked.

not necessarily, the EU forces a limit of 186mph, it could top out at 190mph or something, hard to gauge until someone removes the limit and tries.

Though from my understanding, removing the limiter is extremely simple in mercs.

just need to have a star diagnosis system (or know someone with one). then you just increase the limit to something impossible to reach (220mph+ probably)

I happen to know a mb mechanic with star system. :cool:

Not that I would need to unlock it. I doubt I'll even go at 100mph

alright, the new E63 has the match speed of car in front of you system.

it has fully adaptive cruise control, meaning it can bring your car to a complete stop and then start it again with no driver intervention just based on the car in front of you.

ie. if the car you are following slams on the breaks your car will automatically start breaking and can even come to a complete stop without you having to do anything. once the car in front continues or gets out of the way, you continue on your previous cruise control set speed.

it's a pretty neat system really.

I saw it on a tv program a few years ago talking about Toyota tech and this was on that experimental Camry, wonder if MB licensed their system or developed their own.

no, there is an AMG and on top of that there is an AMG S.

Can't be, the only AMG wagon is the S model, AMG only makes 5 different engines, the smallest being the 5.5-liter naturally aspirated, the next is the 5.5-liter biturbo (by far the most common).


The models which use that engine follow:
CL63
CLS63
CLS63 S
E63 Sedan
E63 S Sedan
E63 S Wagon
G63
GL63
ML63
SL63


You might be thinking of the sedan, which does have an AMG E63 sedan model and the AMG E63 S sedan.
