| 2014 E63 to get 4MATIC, 0-100 in 3.4 sec! 2014 Mercedes E63 AMG to get 550 HP and 4MATIC Quote:
Sources have informed WCF that the upcoming 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG is going to come as standard with 4MATIC all-wheel drive and will develop 550 HP (405 kW) without the optional Performance Package. It will be able to perform the 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) sprint in 3.4 seconds. The current E63 AMG with its rear-wheel drive configuration produces 525 HP (386 kW) and accelerates from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 4.3 seconds.
As far as styling is concerned, AMG is going for a very aggressive appearance in an effort to shake the stigma of a glorified E-Class. The front and rear bumpers, headlights and the side skirts will receive some alterations, with the front bumper resemling the Ferrari F430's bumper with big rounded air intakes. The headlights will be a one-piece with LEDs and bi-xenon, while the side skirts are completely different and more pronounced, featuring a trim piece that runs along the car’s length.
The 2014 E63 AMG is scheduled to go into production in Q3 2013 and is expected to look considerably more aggressive than the regular E-Class.

Looks like BMW will have to step up their game |

BMW best step it up; I've owned 5 BMW's, never owned a Benz but I'm really tempted to get the CLS63 over the gran coupe because of the jaw dropping performance numbers.

But the SLS and new C63 BS beats the bmw M3 GTS in all the lap times; in nurburgring etc. |

Pretty confident the new F10 M3 should beat the new C63 (non blk series) around the Nurburgring.....if it doesn't, BMW will have lost it......

| I have a feeling the new F10 M3 will kick 2014 C63's ass too Just read the german Auto Bild news that the new C63 will switch to 4L engine
Great news for the E... Sad news for the C; though the 4L may be faster and fuel efficient, it's such a dramatic change from the 6.2L and its gonna sound wimpy..
