2014 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG
For Chief Execs In One Hell Of A Hurry
We've finally calmed down from thrashing the all-new, front-wheel-drive-biased, 4Matic A45 and CLA45 from Mercedes-Benz's AMG...

2014 Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG/// S
2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG 4MATIC
Bummed that Audi won't sell you an RS6 Avant? Cry on Mercedes' shoulder.
“Almost” rarely feels this good. The 49ers almost turned Super BowlXLVII around. Commissioner Gordon almost saved Batman’s girlfriend. The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG’s S model offers almost 600 horsepower, but we bet few people are terribly disappointed that it’s actually 23 shy. And with 590 lb-ft of torque testing the...
2014 Mercedes CLA45 AMG review
Yet another class has been introduced to the Mercedes-Benz range in Australia. The CLA-Class is a baby brother to the CLS-Class, a model that has changed the landscape in stylish but reasonable practical car and brought on a host of imitators.
Mercedes AMG engineers have given us an amazing 355 horsepower from a 2.0-litre high-pressure petrol turbocharged engine. A powerplant that’s the most powerful four-cylinder mass production...

2014 Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG
Mercedes class meets Porsche dynamics.
We ease out of the pit lane and onto the track. At this point, the car sounds like most of its four-cylinder Mercedes siblings—emitting a rather undistinguished, but not unpleasant, moggy purr. But as Moers dips deeper into the throttle and the 2.0-liter engine revs higher on the approach to the first right turn, the sound segues into a powerful rort. The...
2013 Audi S3
It's an S3 with an extra pair of doors. So forgive us for starting at the boring end, because, although we'd like to talk about the 296bhp at the front of the car, we must first discuss luggage space. Of which there is 380 litres with the seats up, or 1,200 when they're down. That's 15 litres more than the three-door S3, or about the volume of your average water-cooler bottle. More importantly, it's 20 litres more than its main rival...
2013 Porsche 911 Turbo S
The 911 Turbo S is blindingly fast. I mean that not as afigure of speech, but quite literally. This car blinds you. Human eyes cannot cope with the sheer force of detonating from a standstill past 60mph in three seconds, the Turbo S flinging itself off the line with a lot of noise and just a hint of wheelspin. Clench your jaw, squint, gurn, it's all useless: as launch control bites, the windscreen starts to swim, the scenery closes in around...
Mercedes-Benz G-Class 6x6
G-Class 6x6 The Monster
Up until now, the best chance you'd have to get to drive this monster 6x6 AMG would be to join the Australian army, which signed a contract with Daimler in 2008 to procure 2,100 of these unstoppable desert chasers. But now Mercedes has decided - rather brilliantly - to make a civilian version, ready to order by millionaires before the end of 2013.
From the original military blueprint, it keeps six driven...
