I like the idea of the RL very much, kinda sport minivan, multi-kids dad last resort ;-). But it lacks some very important things, no 7 seats and trunk is small. Is it AWD in AMG version?? But to say it's beautiful - like they say it has a face only mother could love. To mee it looks like huse penis with eyes )) here is the pic of the Rodius

It is AWD - or 4-Matic, in any version.

Sure mainroman, the designers were lazy so they based their design on some obscure minivan, thats how they did it


Where do you get this ***** from?

[ClayJ]

Yeah, I think that it is ugly. UGLY and BIG.

But I have heard from so many people that say it rides so well, it drives so well, it is so comfortable, it handled the winter so well....

Six adults in comfort. MBZ safety, technology, and quality.

And now we have the AMG R63....

I, personally, am going to have to try one. Period.

I have heard about you and all of your BS

Do NOT post here

ps: you should try fixing up that GM in your yard

[ClayJ]

You're too young to have an opinion - or any judgement.

Do not comment here.

See? Intelligent post, just like yours, huh? NOT!

Save bandwidth. Ignore me. Don't post about me - there's a worthy idea!

[gangrun]

Im just wondering why you have to lie about stuff you obviously do not own

An example-I just saw on the ML63 section that you want to see if you like alpine rain for your ML63 order- come on man lifes to short to dwell in your imaginary life

[gangrun]

And give me a break-too young? im 17 for gods sake

[ClayJ]

17 and 120 posts is far too young.

Why don't you read my next 25 posts and get a month or two older; and then check your opinion of me, and let me know if you have learned something by actually paying attention and gathering information - instead of just following the latest 'in' crowd?

You're going to have to learn to do that at some point in your near future, anyway, or you're likely to get into trouble. This would be good practice, a good exercise for you to engage in....

That didn't seem like Bu**** to you, now did it?

Maybe someone with experience who has learned to form their own opinion should chime in.

Besides, it's his thread and you polluted it.

[gangrun]

I dont need to read anymore posts about you to gather that all you do is BS

I am sure that I will get a lot of negative responses but I took delivery of my R63 yesterday and spent the day trying to keep under the recommended RPMs and Speed requirements.

This thing is a real beast. I have owned E V8's, ML V8's and SLKs. None of them seem as overwhelming as the power of this vehicle. Until you look in the rear view mirror you forget that you are driving such a large vehicle. I don't think the brake pads will last long but they stop the vehicle amazingly quick.

As I would have expected, my first day gas mileage was horrible. I haven't been on the freeway yet.

Overall, I definitely do not regret the purchase.

congrats dude

I adore wagons, that's why I'd get an E63 AMG Estate. That R class is the ugliest Merc I've ever seen.

[gangrun]

^that is your opinion, I think that the E wagon is one of the ugliest cars ever made

[vixapphire]

i love the pissing contest this thread has deteriorated into.

i saw a guy driving a black amg-appearance package R class the other day, although i don't think it was the 63 - didn't notice the fender badge. it looked remarkably better than the standard non-appearance'd R body.

i've got a '55 wagon, and it suits me fine. i like cars more than trucks, and to me the main issue with the R is the length of the wheelbase; it's just a tad lengthy for my taste. i sat in one (R350) at the dealer once and it seems like it would be a great car for family vacations and road trips.

i can understand why some people think these things are beautiful, and again why others think they're abhorrently ugly. i've felt both ways on different sightings. all of which tells me that MB must be doing something right, if they can get my $100k for their "ugly" E55T, and get yours for their "ugly" R63, and make us both feel lucky while they walk off with $200k!!!

those filthy *******s!

[gangrun]

^ true true

[daytrippin]

My wife has an '06 E350 wagon and I have the R63. I guess I will have to post a picture with them side by side so that you guys can slam them as hard as you want.

I couldn't wait for the completion of the break in period to jump on the R63 a little bit yesterday. This guy in a CTS-V wanted to play so I gave him a little taste of the AMG muscle. When he met me at my exit he asked what the vehicle was and said he had just been schooled hard.

Can't wait until a Porshe tries the same. To get beaten by a Van/Station wagon will be pretty embarrassing.

[billybenz]

hmmm show what that has in common with a locomotive which I can also afford

[NVR_L8]

Still looks wierd.

hey! that is not true! And although you are entitled to your opinion you have offended me!



The R63 will be a love/hate thing, just like the SLR Mc. (some HATE the way it looks, so love it)

dude,
that is the most insane-looking front end on a 124 wagon that i've ever seen. it's like a hybrid of the previous generation's headlights behind a glass sheet, hung off the front of the 80's benz! what exactly is that, if not a completely custom one-off execution?

ps. hats off to the craftsman who executed the job very nicely.

[shadowgriffen]

thanks! that craftsman would be me LOL that is my ride

Oh I have alot of planning to do with her, but time + Wife + kids = BROKE LOL but It'll get there some day

Mods include (never stops really)

Black out grille l chrome strip delete l ebay blackout lights l R129 wheels with M Pilots l Wiper Delete l w123 300D steering wheel center star l and more I'm sure I'm forgetting...

thanks for the compliment
