Currently there is no Mercedes-AMG E63 Sedan or Wagon, and not one Jalop noticed it!
What we do have for the 2016 model year is the Mercedes-AMG E63 S Sedan and Wagon. That’s right, the 577hp, 5.5l biturbo V8 is a class above what would be a plebeian “63" model. So when Mercedes-AMG rolls out the 2017 E63, don’t freak out when you find out it has gone from a 550hp, 5.5L to a 503hp, 4.0L. The old “63" was bumped up into a “63S” and the new “63" will be what 2014-Mercedes would have called a “55” model.
So yes, the S models are the real AMG cars now. For a bonus reminder, everything I pointed out also applies to the CLS-Class and GLE Coupe. The proper GLE SUV still has a 63 variant because MB forgot to discontinue it!

The C63 also comes in plebe non S form.
I can’t wait to see how the new E wagon turns out. Rumor is they are working on an All Terrain version of the wagon too. http://www.carscoops.com/2016/02/new-me…

Yes, Mercedes is playing off on people’s stupid ideas of “Well its a bigger number, so its better.” I think the idea sucks ass.
And well hello there:

What, what did you just say? IIRC referring to the GLE as a coupe is grounds for a week’s removal of authoring privileges.

But, but, but Oppo loves illogical cars!! We love practicality! We love sporty cars that can be driven daily! The Coup-UVs are sports coupes made into their most practical possible variant!!! Oppo as f*ck!

I don’t care what they are - they aren’t coupes.
If Merc built a 4-door SUV with 1000hp that gets 20L/100km and weighs 1100kg, and they call it a coupe, it’s still not okay.

Well remember this, if they had two doors we`d have convertible versions coming out right now. X4, X6, GLE convertibles! *shudder*

You’re not getting it Wobbles! I don’t care if they do make some sort of disgusting SUVertible, so long as they’re not abusing the English language!
