The Frankfurt Motor Show offerings continue to get better and this ones directed right at you soccer moms out there with the need for speed. Pictured above is the 2010 Mercedes E63 AMG Wagon. As you can see, the car is a station wagon but that doesn’t stop it from being absolutely fierce.

The car is said to feature a 6.3 liter 8 cylinder engine capable of a staggering 525hp. The only bummer? It will probably never see the light of day in North America.

Do you remember the AMG tuned Mercedes-Benz SLS that we showed you design sketches of back in April? Yeah, well it seems that a magazine has an issue featuring the car coming out and, like always, images got leaked.

Just in case Pagain’s Zonda Cinque wasn’t expensive enough, Pagani has gone ahead and announced the Zonda Cinque Roadster.

Despite having a €1.3 million price tag, underneath the hood buyers will find some very enticing goodies. It sports an AMG tuned engine capable of 678HP and a 0-100km/h sprint of just 3.4 seconds. Match that with the ceramic-coated titanium exhaust, traction control, six-speed sequential transmission, 19/20-inch aluminum, mangesium wheels and carbo-ceramic brakes you find yourself with a car fit for a king.

If by some stretch of the imagination you have enough money to purchase one of these you better pull some strings because there will be only 5 of them made.

If you are even a remote fan of streetwear clothing the names Nigo and more importantly BAPE will definitely ring a bell.

Well, Nigo has done what all BAPE fans have probably wanted to do and ordered a custom made Mercedes 300SL Gullwing straight from AMG painted with, what else, the classic BAPE allover camo print.

What you see above is said creation, a 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300SL with its engine swapped for a 6.0liter 8-cylinder engine. Awesome.

The next E63 AMG Mercedes-Benz hasn’t been officially presented yet and we’re expecting it to arrive in New York next month. But Mercedes has decided to allow its German customers a sneak peak of its next impressive sedan. The German Sport Auto magazine is going to show it during it’s annual reader’s choice awards book. What do you think? How do you like the picture? From what we can see so far we’re looking at a new fascia aero kit, big wheels and upgraded brakes. I bet it will cost a fortune to when it will be properly introduced next month.

2009 Mercedes SLK55 AMG

A seven-speed automatic with manual control is the only available transmission for the 2009 Mercedes SLK55 AMG and that is probably its weakest link. Mercedes has gone and put in a gigantic hand-built 5.4-liter V8 under In other words, this is one quick little Merc. When you put your foot down at any speed and the SLK55 lunges forward like a runaway train.

There is plenty of grip for spirited driving on paved roads and while its overall responsiveness is a bit disappointing the steering is crisp enough. rimary gauges are clear and easily read at a glance. The climate controls are pretty much idiot-proof but on the downside, sound quality from the advanced Harman Kardon Logic 7 stereo is a huge disappointment. The 9.8-cubic-foot trunk is adequate for a two-person weekend getaway, but not much more than that. The SLK55 makes a fun fellow traveler.
