The 6ser's side look better than MB, and also the 6 series seems to sit lower. Is it a concept?

I kinda like the MB one more.

I kinda like the 6....I love the current body styles (well, maybe not the 745), but that looks like a good new direction to move in.

both looking like concept sketches, although the 6 is gonna probably happen, while the E-coupe is... well, who knows?

the E-coupe looks pretty phat though... it'll be a good match up...

bimmer's V-10 pumping out 500hp or MB's blown V-8 pumping out 496hp (unless they detune it so it won't go faster than the SL55).

MB has taken the SL55 out of the market after a short stint because they found out that the new AMG E55K was actaully FASTER (mind you, the SL55 can walk away from a 911 turbo and beat a Diablo to 200mph!!!) in testing. So, they're gonna bump up the SL55 to a 500+hp engine, and maybe detune the E55K's engine. Both are derivatives of the Vision SLR's blown V-8 which puts out mid 500hp.
