Performance luxury saloons are great, all that power wrapped in a highly desirable metal suit creates a certain appeal that checks all the right boxes. Almost. There is almost always room for improvement, that's why performance divisions and tuners exist. <!--more-->
This handsome Benz you see here is the work of Vath Automobiltechnik. The lesser known German tuner may not be well-known but it definately took the E63 AMG to a whole new level. A level that includes 87 extra horses. Under the hood, Varth bored out the cylinders, fitted new pistons, valves, cam shafts, intake and tweaked the ECU to achieve a total output figure of 605hp. That propels the car from standstill to 100km/h in just 4.1-seconds and onto a top speed of 340km/h.
And to complete the package, Vath has also fitted a body kit complete with a new grille, front and rear spoilers and a carbon fiber diffuser. In the wheels and handling department, Vath has fitted the E63 AMG with 20-inch modular rims, a suspension dropped by 30-millimeters, and huge 390mm brake discs gripped by eight-piston calipers up front.
