“The AMG version of the W164, the ML63 AMG, was introduced at the 2006 North American International Auto Show as a limited edition 2007 model. It features a 6.2 L M156 V8 engine producing 510 hp (380 kW) and 465 lb•ft (630 N•m) that is handcrafted in Germany, which makes the vehicle extremely rare. The engine is mated to an AMG Speedshift 7G-Tronic seven-speed automatic transmission. The ML63 can accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 4.8 seconds.”

and ... the "63" engine (which is unique to AMG) is available in every MB model--including the C-Class, which is why BMW is now advertising a V8-powered 3-series.

I find it interesting that the C63 has less horse power and torque than the larger vehicles with the same engine. It wouldn't surprise me to find that the C63 is not heavy enough to transfer all of that power to the pavement, but I wonder if there are any benefits to tuning down the engine. ???
