Welcome. First I don't think there is an AMG 3.5 litre. IIRC the AMG version of the ML is 6.3 litres. (Idiotic on UK roads IMO). The petrol 3.5 litre has an optional AMG body kit but no performance enhancements AFAIK. In fact all models can choose the bodykit if they wish.

I like the ML very much. I like the high driving position and the excellent legroom front and rear and lots of stowage -like a high estate car. Ever so comfortable on a long run. I owned the older model but chose the diesel for a nice blend of performance and economy. Have driven the new model for a few thousand miles, both the 320cdi and the 4.2litre diesel. Both are fabulous engines.

Lately MB have been fitting bigger and bigger wheels in an attempt to bolster sharply falling sales. They are now up to twenty inches and look absurd IMO. Soon the wheels will be solid alloy with no tyres at all and all teenage Nova owners will want one. But they really do affect the ride for the worse. They reduce fuel consumption, increase emissions, aquaplane more easily and reduce off-road ability. Other than that -great!

But for plenty of differing views see: -
