it’s not a 6.3 liter V8 it’s really a 6.2 liter but they call the car’s E, C, etc 63 AMG’s to pay homage to some MB from 20, 30 years ago. Just as Chevrolet calls the Z06 engine a 427 (Vettes from the 1960′a) when in it’s actually a 428.

And this is part of the reason why I can’t stand big government – instead of fining the manufacturers, government should be fining the end users through higher gas prices – the auto manufacturers will adjust their offerings if no one buys their gas guzzlers & those of us that can afford the gas can still drive what they want.

Comes from thinking a 6.3L V8 is the answer to all the performance questions of the world. Mercedes-Benz needs a clue.

****Dear Internet lurkers****

If you have stumbled on to this site and found yourself reading about this Mercedes and it’s gas guzzling traits, do yourself a favor and check out the new Buick Enclave or GMC Acadia SUV. You’ll be doing yourself and America a big deservice by not doing so

Look at Consumer Reports. Mercedes ranks lower than Buick, not surprisingly.

Why should anyone be surprised? They managed to suck the life out of Chrysler therefore sucking fuel should be a walk in the park.

Secomd highest CAFE ratings offset the lowest reliability scores perfectly

MB should be an exception because i bet people who look at Mercedes don’t really look at the mpg it gets unless they are looking at the c-class.
