New York 2014: 2015 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG Coupe Debuted
For the well-moneyed customer who likes the Accord but prefers a German badge, Mercedes-Benz unveiled the S63 AMG Coupe at the 2014 New York Auto Show.
Under the bonnet lies a twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 driving 577 ponies through all four wheels while providing 644 lb-ft of torque to any driver feeling the need to take down a redwood forest or two. Air suspension, lighter weight and optional ceramic brakes add to the performance alongside the usual AMG enhancements.
As for how much to pay for this experience, look forward to spending somewhere around $150,000 when the S63 AMG Coupe arrives in showrooms.

Love the new Merc design language. Still not a fan of LCD dashes, but gorgeous.
The German's do build the best 'muscle' cars/sedans in the world. They really know how to blend power and performance........at a cost. That's why Australia is in first place for performance vs value vs practicality (sedans!). These cars are fast and can go around curves and bends fast.
