True, it might need to go behind the front seats - a mid-engine car. Might
even fit in the long chassis?

The Dry Weight: pounds 2,954 pounds (1,340 kg) might make it a little
nose-heavy, too.

Whatever this $500E300 has in the way of torks has me invoking the ASR nanny 
quite often. There is a switch to turn it off but I keep forgetting to do so. 
It’s not even running quite right but it is very entertaining. My wife’s ML 
dizzel has 450 lbft which is also lots of fun with AWD to put it down to the 
pavement

Yes, 2,433 lb-ft (3,300 Nm) would be very noticable.

It would turn an SDL into a pretzel.
