The real AMG ML55, ML63, etc will look the same except have quad exhaust and different and bigger wheels. Everything else to my understand will remain the same.
It looks interesting but a litlte more interested in the interior since that is what i feel needs more of an improvement.
I agree it looks better. I am more interested in the QUALITY, as the current ML is simply one of the worst built cars/SUV/ anything EVER. It has the worst quality scores here in the USA and in Europe.
that looks pretty good. a giant step up from the current gen. i've never like the current one but i think MB is going into right direction. all their new line up looks awesome. BMW should take note and fire bangle or throw him out or do something about him.

Do the Europeans get the junk model out of Alabama - or do they build the ML on a different floor somewhere on that continent?
I did a search and found the answer to the above question:
Two expansions in 1998 and 1999, costing $80 million, raised annual capacity from 65,000 to 80,000. Supplemental M-Class production in Graz, Austria, was halted last July after 12,279 were built.
Read the rest of that article - it provides some insight as to why there exists such a quality issue with vehicles originating from this plant.
Whoever's in charge down there needs the boot. Why hasn't Mercedes initiated an emergency Stuttgart engineer drain to Alabama to address this problem? Is it because they wouldn't even know where to begin (considering how poorly Mercedes performs over its entire product range in regard to quality)?
Mercedes simply cannot continue to sell entirely on that ever-falling star (on the hood). Older Mercedes customers and owners that remember the glory days when customer satisfaction/loyalty was priority #1 from engineering to post-warranty service are fast leaving the earth or coming to their senses.

It is a little better looking than the last although thats still not saying much for this one. That back bumper with the dual pipes kinda look like the Acura MDX.
