A turbo charged IL6 with added electric oomph

Hmmm electronically limited to 130mph? Surely not...........it's an AMG

"The AMG-ified inline-six delivers 429 horsepower at 6,100 RPM and 384 lb-ft of torque from 1,800 to 5,800 RPM. AMG claims it’ll do 0-60 in 4.3 seconds, and hit an electronically-limited top speed of 130 mph."

It's rather nice, but I'd like to see the UK pricing compared to the W213 E63. Looking at the US price, its getting too close to the 63 IMO.

Mmm, that's nice, interior is gorgeous.

My son I about to order his - I will report back after I have driven it

MB site says 250km/h (155mph) top speed or 180mph with drivers package.

I believe the NA version is limited to 130 mph, Europe will be limited to 155 mph as usual.

Oh Hell Yeah!

Raz from Remove Before Race has done a great review on the E53 Coupe. It appears the only bad thing about it is the lack of a "performance exhaust" option, although since posting he has mentioned on social media that this will be coming in the future...

For me it's absolute stunning and I will definitely be looking into one coming closer to the end of my term on the C63.

Saw an E53 in Bristol Mercedes. I think it was a customer car. Very understated but so nice in the flesh.
I’m now seriously considering an E400 AMG Coupe to replace the 507 while I wait for the price of the E53 to get to my level
Has anyone owned one of these. I will be looking at 2yr old models [hopefully] with the awesome dash

Sat in one today (about to replace a load of the speakers and add a couple of amps) - seriously lovely inside....
