Mercedes ML 63 AMG vs. Cayenne turbo S

Result
Meaningfully or not: The Mercedes ML 63 AMG comes out as a winner from this comparison. Its fiery V8-Triebwerk inspires with sound and temper. Besides it is more favorable over 20000 euro than the Porsche. The Cayenne turbo S wins the prestigious driving dynamics chapter - he has here among other things with the brakes, the traction and driving safety the nose in front. However the AMG can decide the other chapters for itself, which proves under the line also still owing to its smaller weight than the agilere car.

I think the top speed is reached without the speed limiter which ever Benz has...anyway the ML is a well made, powerful car, but I'd always go for the TTS...The ML does not look as sporty as the P IMO
Thank you for the pics and info

I really like the ML63, but like everyone else said-- i prefer Cayenne Turbo S!.. Besides, when the facelift Cayenne comes out maybe the top of the line version will be faster and better than ML63..

Maybe the ML63 is faster...but it certaintly doesn't feel as solid and inspire as much confidence as the TTS

the performance of the pepper is even more amazing because it carries 400# more than the ml63.
