Opinions appreciated....RS4 or 2010 E63 AMG
Hello All,
I have a great opportunity to get into a 2010 Mercedes E63AMG for a great lease price. I own my RS4, have had it since new and recently purchased it off lease since there were no other cars that could compare to he RS.
I was wondering if anyone has driven a 2010 E63 and what they think of the car. I am scheduled to test drive it this weekend-the prices are insanley affordable for a 96k MSRP.
Pros-518 hp 465 torque-all the goodies(4 door with more room for the kids)
Cons-Auto and RWD(not a big deal since i have a 2nd car) but the RS is a true any weather beast(hate the wood dash and only has 18 inch wheels)
Carbon Fiber and 19's are a factory order
Let me know who has driven/owned one
I heard the launch is not great but i hear the 2010 have launch control
TIA
All comments welcomed and appreciated

I would keep in mind that the E-Class is a different class car than the RS4 and will feel very different. The E-Class should feel slightly larger and will throw its weight around more.
If the performance is anything like the C63, then hopefully this link will help you to know what to expect.

This video may also help you with some specific questions to ask the dealer or look up yourself.
