Fastest ML Ever?

Lovely looking machine though! I saw this posted on one of the AMG facebook groups saying it was an eBay scam...but have no evidence or info to support that!

If you fancy one, @rOckyAMG has one for sale 👍🏻😎 I think silver looks sharp in them!

"Professional tuned by myself for better fuel economy this also improves the bhp to 680bhp". Yeah, right... :rolleyes:

"Never abused or thrashed and has been used as a family car (mainly my wife and the previous owners wife)" Yeah, right...:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Scope creep from W164 to W166 …you’ll be looking at a Brabusized G 63 next! 😀

And @rOckyAMG car is a Performance Pack model too if I remember right 👍🏻
 
I was pleasantly surprised clicking on the link tbh!

Healthy specced car and seems decent value to me? If you’re looking for a tuned example that is :thumb:

Gosh, who knew people are chipping vehicles to nearly 700bhp for economy on the School run. And trips to Waitrose and church on Sundays.

A lesson to us all.

Those extra few neddies are always handy for beating everyone else out the church carpark so you're first in the queue at Costa for your Cortado and chocolate twist.
 
I was watching a bmw engine repair video. The car in question supposedly had 670 hp according to the owner. Folowing repair and when dynoed it had 480wheel hp lol. Maybe the ML was tuned at the same shop 🤣

Probably the same people using 400 odd bhp AMG’s for the school run etc.

Subtle difference. An AMG looks the part. That it gets used for the school run is just about the cost of running a second car.

Someone who chips an ML63 up to 700bhp "probably" isn't doing it to get his wife to Sung Eucharist at the weekend.

I don’t think there’s any difference. One car has 700 bhp and the other around 400bhp.
For the school run?

You buy an ML63 for the street cred parked on your driveway. And to crush small children if they run in front of you on the way to school.

But you chip something from 400bhp to 700bhp for the power.....

I'm not, and if I was, I'd need some convincing that was the one for me.

No chance; ugly ugly ugly (sorry Killerhertz)... I just don't 'get' the Gelandewagen, I'm afraid. I know it has its devotees, but I'm not one of them.

I know about @rOckyAMG's one; in fact, it's what made me start looking at them. More than I'd want to spend, though, on a car I might find I wasn't that keen on after owning it for a while, and besides, it has a black interior. If that black one I'm looking at had a black interior, I wouldn't be looking at it either. If the black one was Tanzanite, I'm sure I'd have bought it by now though...

I went for this car cause it was a performance pack and they are as rare as a hen teeth and it had a great service record too with all the paperwork. I think there are around 5 in the UK.

I'd prefer the Tanzanite brown interior that I had in my w212 E63 but didn't want to wait around as I wasn't sure if there is one with that interior.
