What's performace like compared to the amg? I drove a e63 the other week and I hate to say it the 63 engine wasn't as kick you in the back as much as the 55 only thing I prefered was the 7 speed box.... Don't people say the m5 box is a pain around town? Or is that the new one? Looks good though mate :smile: thought you would of gone for a c6 rs6 though?
The E63 won't give you a kick as no SC as you know, good fun in manual.
Yes in auto the gearbox is s**t, but I always drive in M mode, and always in manual. If feels a lot more brutal than the AMG, but really performance stats are the same. The whole package is better for me, more of a drivers car rather than comfort.
Don't like the C6 RS6, it's very good, but I want something I can chuck around and go verrrry sideways ;-)
