New performance pack for the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG

If you believe that you’ll do away with all the “extra-equipment” hustles if you buy a top spec version like Mercedes-Benz’s E63 AMG better think again. These guys make a living from offering extras to their top models. Like the “Limited Sport Edition” of the BMW 1-Series that we previously posted, the Performance-Pack for the E63 AMG is all about appearance, a stiffer suspension and of course, a hefty price tag which in this case is 7.140 EUROS or 9.300 USD. –Continued: Click “Read more…” below Via: Autoblog.com & Mercedes
