Nice ride, you certainly diverted slightly from your original criteria with that hot rod !

I don't really know my AMG well but does it have the handbuilt 6.2 naturally aspirated engine ?

If so, that engine is a beast. My buddy has an ML63 with the 6.2 and it is the classiest high performance SUV I have been in.

I am kind of on the hunt for a SL63 with the same engine (2012 or earlier model year)

It's a hand built 5.5 with a supercharger. It's a beast.

I know I diverted a bit but wanted something fun, comfortable and nice for a few years. I think this checks those boxes.

I already have three "unique" other vehicles by most standards.

That'll be a fun ride and it's certainly fairly unique! I hope it's a good ride for you!


Can a diesel X5 be in the fast German car club? It'll do 140mph?? LOL!
