Luqman, or simply Lookie, as many people like to call him, is a prominent automotive digital content creator who has taken the bar a notch higher as far as Kenya’s car culture is concerned. Showcasing other people’s cars is one thing; owning a car that is also loved by the masses is a different thing. Lookie wears the same shoes, showing Kenyans the latest luxury and high-performance cars while simultaneously leaving the streets in awe courtesy of his Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and not just an E-Class; it’s an AMG E63 S nicknamed PICASSO. Before PICASSO, there was MONALISA, and before MONALISA, there was a Subaru WRX.
PICASSO is powered by AMG’s 4.0 L Twin-Turbo V8, and the latest mods done on it, including adding a new exhaust (Akrapovic) is mind boggling. Some cars move you from point A to B, and then some cars move you from point A to B in style, pomp, elegance, with maximum comfort, and the ability to expedite your blood flow for an exhilarating experience. The latter is where PICASSO belongs.

EXTERIOR: Muscular Elegance
The Mercedes-Benz AMG E63 S is not any other ordinary vehicle on the road. It is a statement of class, prestige, and grandeur. You will be forgiven for confusing it with the standard E-Class. This is an AMG, luxury on wheels. Every panel and detail has been enhanced for performance.
The iconic AMG Panamericana grille on the front fascia gives it a proper introduction, and it is adorned with the respected Mercedes emblem. The massive air intakes and the front bumper lend it an aggressive look.
On the side profile, the AMG E63 S maintains the same proportions as the standard E-Class but sits lower. The side is characterized by wide wheel arches, AMG side skirts, large brake calipers, and 20-inch forged alloy wheels. The rear is elegant and intimidating. Yes, intimidating enough to warn you not to try to race it. Just admire from a distance.
Lookie’s AMG E63 S has also been customized for a sporty and aggressive look. To add premium accessories and custom body kits like Matrix LED headlights, carbon fiber mirror caps, AMG diffuser, a front lip splitter, or performance exhaust, visit: SAFARI SPARES.
INTERIOR: High-tech Motorsport Luxury
The Mercedes-Benz AMG E63 S’s cabin is unapologetically sumptuous, spacious, and a tech haven. The AMG performance seats comfortably soak in your weight for supreme comfort. The seats are upholstered in leather and feature heating, ventilation, and massage functions.
Both rows have plenty of legroom and headroom. You have a 12.3-inch MBUX system, dual-zone climate control, turbine air vents, a flat-bottom steering wheel, ambient interior lighting, and a panoramic sunroof that bathes the cabin with natural light for improved serenity.

PERFORMANCE: Power Embroiled in Beauty
A while ago, I had warned that you don’t try to race the AMG E63 S thinking that it is only beautiful with no power. Listen, under the hood sits a 4.0 L Twin-Turbocharged V8 producing 603 horsepower and 850NM of torque. Unless you have a G-TR, my brother, be very careful with your Toyota Harrier. My apologies, Harrier is a good car.
FINAL VERDICT
There are deals you don’t have to get into the boardroom to have them sealed. Just by arriving at the meeting while driving the Mercedes-Benz AMG E63 S, by face value you have already been given the contract. This is Nairobi, my friend; hard work is good, but appearance matters. The AMG E63 S is a status symbol. If I am lying, ask Lookie……
With only 23 million Kenyan shillings, you can be the next owner of the 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG E63 S. This is not just an investment; it is a lifestyle.
