I saw these rims on a colleagues Nissan today, and the similarities really hit me.

^ Relax man that is just wheel. And since it is a wheel there is chance to have similarities.

Hot damn guys!
I am still elated the E55 is coming back with a twin Bi-turbo I6 with 490ps.
(I can only image the soundtrack this engine will produce after hearing the C43, which reminds me of the early Pagani Zondas in hi revs, just more toned down) AMG is working on the sonics.
490ps, that is more powerful than the full-fledged V8 E55 Kompressor V8 of 2004 which stood at 476ps. Lighter weight, 4-Matic i assume, and a better more efficient 9-speed tranny, The new E55 is going to be a performer.
The new E63 S is going to be insane. 605hp and 627lb-ft. it is more powerful than the SLR. With the addition of 4-Matic could probably smoke it from a 0-300kmh race.

yes the new E55 will be amazing but nothing beats the soundtrack of a V8 imo.

Voila. 
The new Mercedes E63 will be four-wheel drive only
AMG boss Tobias Moers tells TG the RWD M5-rival is dead. But still expect tyre smoke
“It’s going to be four-wheel drive. Only. Even for the UK!” These are the words of the big boss of Mercedes-AMG, Tobias Moers, as he gave us a peek at AMG’s future at the launch of the ballistic GT R. Specifically, the E63 AMG’s future.
“But we are going to introduce a completely new four-wheel drive system, one which we’ve never had in the company. That’s going to be the biggest step we ever did with a generation. In Germany we had the choice of 4x4 and 4x2, and 90-plus per cent bought the 4x4. People in that segment are looking for four-wheel drive.”
Moers didn’t shed too much light on the system itself, but something that actively distributes torque around – a la Ford Focus RS – is likely. The RS, you’ll know, is quite drifty. The bonkers AMG dynamics shouldn’t be going anywhere, then.
The front axle may be gaining drive, but the rear axle, unlike that GT R, won’t be getting any steering. “In the E-Class, there is no need for rear-wheel steering,” Moers told us. While the four-wheel-steer system from the GT R will filter onto other AMG products, it’s likely to be the more hardcore versions which have it.
Moers also confirmed that the twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 from the AMG GT and the C63 AMG (pictured above) will be used in the new E63. “It’s a different level of power output. The block, crankshaft and so on are going to be the same, but the cylinder head and arrangement of turbochargers are different, though it will be a ‘hot in V’ as well,” he told us.
The 74bhp hike yielded for the AMG GT R arrived via surprisingly small changes over the AMG GT S’s 503bhp setup, so the engine clearly houses a heck of a lot of potential, a fact engineers happily divulged to us. But don’t expect AMG to reignite the notorious RS, M and AMG power wars.
“I’m more focused on the overall package,” Moers continued. “Maybe not in the past, but we’ve moved to that, to a certain extent. Power should be in line with the overall capabilities of the chassis. It’s more important to have a precise throttle response than all that power. You need a certain level and in that segment, it’s around 600bhp.”
So, a circa-600bhp 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, driving all four wheels through an intriguing new AWD setup. And it’ll still be called E63. Like the sound of it?

Can't wait for this next exciting chapter of E-Class performance, however I hope it is not 4WD only, because that would lose the classic driving qualities of rear wheel drive, which purists associate with most performance cars, but the 600+hp V8, bring it on..Voila.

Me too i would much prefer RWD but it doesnt look promising.

Yes you may be right, that is a hell amount of power for a exec RWD car to handle, the rear biased 4WD is probably the best option it seems..
