jamesketchell Report post Posted May 17, 2006 I've got a couple more weeks to decide on black vs silver. My current daily car is a silver E55, so i was looking for a change. Plus i just bought my wife a new ML320 in silver, so two in the same colour might be overkill. The only thing im wondering is how black weathers compared to silver. The E55 i have now i had from new on 03 and its worn very well. I'm not 100% convinced black will do the same? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OC Report post Posted May 17, 2006 When in doubt, go with a black car. Can't go wrong. You said it yourself, 2 silver cars can get very boring, and it simply does not have the presence of the black E63 would have. Good choice btw. -Olivier Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesketchell Report post Posted May 17, 2006 showed 206mph on the dial, but id say the read-out is probably 10-15mph out from a true reading. Either way it was moving along pretty well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Report post Posted May 17, 2006 James, You were just saying the other day that mad cars are the way forward (eg camo lambo), so what about a mad colour for the Merc? Bright orange etc? Seriously though... seen any pics of the new E in blues/reds etc? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though... seen any pics of the new E in blues/reds etc? The E class AMG cars are only available in Silver or Black in the UK. The solution could be to wrap the car though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesketchell Report post Posted May 17, 2006 Still more rpm to go?? Do u remember?? Yes still more rev range but progress was very slow at that speed. I think the car has room to rev beyond the current red-line to be honest, its artificially restricted for either longevity of engine parts or in an attempt to not outpace its big brother.

chanp Report post Posted June 16, 2006 how much performance diff between the 55 and the 63? c Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesketchell Report post Posted June 18, 2006 Its a different car altogether really. Less torque and more revs than the 55. Which means you get smoother delivery. 0-60 is around 4.3secs in the E63, compared to 4.6sec in the 55. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortenmol Report post Posted June 18, 2006 we're getting our ml63 in november (without the 250 limit), looking so forward to that engine!! :twisted: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
