Huh? I never knew there were SWB and LWB versions of the R-class

Seems weird the only petrol engine on offer is the V8!

So does this mean they are dropping the AMG version??

Tycoon

I think it's already dropped.

Marcus?

Shocking huh ? !!

It will still be available as a special order from the AMG Factory, it wont be a streamlined AMG Like the rest......

Nothing officially yet on the R63, but all signs point to it being dropped. I don't think 3 people in the entire world will miss it. I'll ask Tennmb.

I must say this R-Class is the one and only lingering stain on Mercedes now, a pimple in the middle of the face if you will.

Mr. M

Lol look at how unimportant the R-Class is to us.

I thought the V6 would be the best selling petrol model. A pity then...

Merc1

I just noticed that, no more R350. Well I can't say I'm surprised. The 3.5L V6 has its work cut out for it moving the R350, not to mention one full of people and cargo. The R320 CDI makes much more sense in Europe I guess. Now the R500 (550) has the new V8 with 380+ hp there is literally no need for a R63, if there ever was one to begin with. NOT!
