Great looking truck Jas! As DJ said, the new style of AMG wheels looks great!
I'd almost be afraid to park the 512BB so close to the edge of the lift like that. I dunno why, but it just makes me a bit nervous looking at the pics. Do your lifts have a lip or something at that back edge to stop your cars from rolling any further?
Anyway, sick collection as always and thanks for taking the time to share you new addition with us! I hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday season!

I think you will enjoy the ML63...after 1k miles, it feels broken in and the engine is eager to go.

Very nice Jas. I love the small AMG details like the two bottom spokes of the steering wheel that mimic the road wheels and the "AMG" insignia thats part of the alloy on the wheels.
Not to go off-topic, but you're awful quiet about the Boxer. If you find the time to make a thread about it with pics/detail and some impressions, that would be nice. I feel it is one of the more eccentric cars in your collection, and if I'm not mistaken, it's the oldest as well.

What a wonderful car. I'm really liking Mercedes new styling, and the ML 63, along with the SL 63 are my current favorites.
If I remember correctly, you have/had a Cayenne Turbo. Comparison? I hope your wife enjoys it in the best of health.

Thanks man, we sold the Cayenne TT in October...just time for something different. We had the CTT for 4 yrs and 30k miles...didn't have any problems with it whatsoever. If it were just Sanj and I, I think I might have kept it and modded it to 550hp...but with another little guy here, we just wanted something with a little more room in the back, and something a bit fresher.

Do the performance abilities of the ML feel up to par with the CTT?
