Driving a 602HP, 180MPH Family Truckster - The Mercedes-Benz E63 S AMG Wagon Is Pure Insanity

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ค. 2021
  • Why? Why would Mercedes-Benz build a family wagon that can do 0-60 in 3 seconds or so, a quarter mile in 11.2, and top out at 180MPH on the way to soccer practice?
    If you have to ask that, you're probably not a car guy. A better question is why wouldn't they? They'd be nuts not to. It's awesome.
    Wagon buyers represent the most loyal and wealthiest segment of the company's customers. The fact that a few hundred of them will drop north of $130K on a grocery getter is testament to that. Even more than the S-Class buyers, the wagon buyers are well heeled.
    So here it is. The E63 S AMG 4-Matic Wagon, with 602HP, 627 pound-feet of torque, and pulling .96G on the skid pad. This is automotive nirvana - a genuine have-your-cake-and-eat-it-too machine that can comfortably cruise the interstate, seat 5 people in total comfort, bring home the Costco shopping, and rip up a racetrack like a Z06 Corvette. This is the stuff that automotive dreams are made of.
    2018 Mercedes-Benz E63 S Wagon - review and test drive by Bill. Vehicle for sale at Autohaus of Naples, on the web at www.AutohausNaples.com, or by phone at (239) 263-8500.

    Maybe the way the fuel cover won’t shut unless the car is locked is to get you to remember to lock the car before you leave it to go and pay for the fuel. A security thing to help avoid car jacking at the filling station.
