MAnn Cant wait till you start modding the car!! what would be your future mods?

The performance of that ML63 is supposed to be on par with the Pepper Turbo right? Man, I hope BMW can deliver on their end in a year or so with a suitable 4.8is replacement. That is what I am waiting on. If it doesn't come or doesn't deliver the appropriate numbers/handling, then I will be in the Pepper or in the ML63.
I am just struggling with which one I would choose if I had to ML63 or the Pepper. Did you consider the Porsche Turbo at all? Is the suspension noticeable different in SPORT vs. COMFORT? Curtis |
Sweeeet!! Good choice.

beast of a truck and i like it alot. But the wheels have to go. What are those 18s? Why would amg use those wheels. They look way to small for that truck.

When i was buying my x5 i looked at the Old mercedes ML55, and the handling on that was so bad it was like a billy cart. But i think the new ML is just 100x better than the old one. Good Luck.
Congrats I only wish i could afford one haha. What mods will you do to it? What mods can u put on it?? haha |
Umm AMG.

The 4.8is is still more sporty than the ML63 (i.e. more agile, better longitudinal poise and body control at high speed), but the ML is much more capable at covering distances quickly and comfortably. Performance wise there really is no comparision. I came across a 535d today (aka the torque-meister) and followed him onto a dual carraigeway off a roundabout, watched him apply his normally superior grunt and within 2 seconds I was past him and a further 4 or 5 seconds and I was out of sight. It accelerates like a movie on fast forward, something that would be familiar with a true supercar, but in an SUV it just makes you laugh at the absurdity. I've had it up to over 130mph and there's just no sign of it slowing down, in fact it 'seems' to accelerate even faster the higher the speed. Most obvious modification at the moment would be to increase the exhaust sound at idle. It's loud compared to a normal car, but not compared to the 4.8is. It's louder once accelerating (much louder than the 4.8is) but I feel it deserves to have small children quivering when driven slowly - it deserves that kind of respect. I knew when Mercedes stuck a 6.3 litre hand-built engine in their ML that I just had to have one. I only hope BMW follows suit, Absurd as it sounds, it somehow makes a lot of sense when you drive one. |
