Are they going to refine and standardize this engine (as a replacement to the 4.3l V8, and to fill the gap between the 3.2l and the 5.0 in the line-up?)
I think some 3.2L engine in MB line up will be replaced by the 3.5L engine. So it's not bulit specifically as a truck's engine. I heard that the new E 320 will be replaced by E 350. And they even have the SL 350 and S 350 in Europe right now.

Mercedes Benz is built more as the touring car than a track car. I always love MB And even though Z4 is a really nice sports car, I doubt most of its buyer will even drive the car hard.
