Porsche, BMW, and Audi are such dicks. All three have tiny little sports cars just begging for one of their big V8s to be shoehorned in, but they just won't do it. Mercedes, however, will gladly sell you a little SLK roadster with a 415hp AMG V8, if you remember to ask for it. Most people don't, but this guy did, and it is awesome.

M152. Fuck, that's the N/A version of a turbo engine. My bad.

The SLK250 comes standard with a manual, which has a turbo four cylinder. Though good luck finding one, with very few ordered without the auto.

No no, the engine you're thinking of is two engine generations old. This is the non-turbo version of the current m157/m278 bi-turbo used in Perry much everything.

Basically your E63 engine sans turbos.

Well 204 c63 is still made and sold with NA V8.
