Mercedes-Benz's new 2012 ML63 AMG represents the sort of self-contradictory engineering challenge Germans love.
It's 2.5 tons of SUV thrown around by a 518-horsepower, twin-turbocharged, direct-injected 5.5-liter V8 — a granite boulder with a rocket engine. It's a family hauler for the family that wants to set a low lap time at the Nürburgring with five humans aboard and a golden retriever in the back. It's a pretend off-roader that can fly all day across pavement at an electronically limited 155 mph (or 174 if said family paid for the AMG Performance option package). There's enough torque aboard to pull Stuttgart across Germany and France into the English Channel, but it's dead-squirrel silent.
This is AMG's third shot at building a hyperdrive version of the M-Class, and it's getting better at it with every attempt. The 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML63 is ridiculous, and that's why it's so tasty.
