I thought she had a supercharged 5.0L....? Is it now a blown 6.0?

Also not sure about the top speed claim on YouToob: the video shows the tach at 6000rpm with an indicated 260kph; assuming that's accurate it would need to spin to 6500rpm to attain 286kph (and also require 2.65 gears). Not saying the claim isn't legit, just that the top speed record was not shown on that video clip. With 2.65 gears the car should be capable of that Vmax at 6400-6500rpm...

As i have written before on youtube and in german forums (@036 ^^), i don't think its an E60AMG, nor are the claimed 286km/h real. First the acceleration above 220km/h is to low for an E60, more 500E with 4 passengers like (assuming she gave full throttle), second even with 2.65 gear, she need roughly 6300RPM (M119 LH's "Limiter2" is at 6300RPM when you remove the "limiter1" at 6000, like most ECU-chips do) and will hit 284km/h calculated. A friend in german forums did calculate that with a gear-ratio-tire-diameter-rpm-calculator, assuming it has stock tires.
Normally a European 500E/E500 hits the stock speed-limiter at 250km/h at exactly 6000RPM with 2.82 gears, while showing a little over 260km/h on the Tachometer. When you remove the limiter by a chip it will rev to 6300RPM which is exactly real 268km/h.
Maybe they had transposed numbers -> meaning 268km/h but written 286km/h? It would make sense as by factory all E60AMGs came with 260km/h Tachometer and 2.82 gear ratio. Only in the early "AMG Mafukatur" you could order the infamous 300km/h Tachometer and 2.65 gears.

I like the wheels ^^ 
So according to signs, and airfilter its really an E60... strange thing...
Any TRUE infos on her rear axle ratio?
Maybe the Tachometer was simply not adjusted?

You can't base anything on what you see in those pictures. Both trunk emblems are not in their proper place (to low) and the airbox COULD of beeen added. Only way to tell for sure is the VIN.
Based on her history at 500e.com, I see no reason to not believe she owns a E60.
Hi.
So, you have finally found photos and video of Ms.V-Max now, this is stalking guys! He, He...
We have met many times on the club gatherings and events. I'm careful with publishing info about others cars, but yes – she has the only original E60 AMG here in Norway. Out from the youtube video and the mileage on the tacho it's with the E60. The photo Dave posted of the engine room, and all the other photos of it on his URL comes from me. The photos are published by the tuning shop showing the first set-up of Ms.V-Max’s supercharged 500E. She is now rebuilding this car to a supercharged 6.0 including lots of extensive upgrades. I hope she will join us and present the car when it’s ready, hopefully next year.
Find enclosed a photo of her E60 AMG along with my SuperMerc. In the background it’s a glimpse of the Brabus 6.5 too. Rik; you’re right about the incorrect emblem position, the E60 is resprayed. I haven’t got the opportunity to drive it yet, but since she has driven my SuperMerc a couple of times, I hope to get a tour in the E60 soon.
By the way – tiny Norway do have a nice collection of special 036’s now:
- E60 AMG
- Brabus 6.5
- E60 AMG (converted 500E)
- the coming 500E 6.0 SC
- 500E 6.0 AMG König SC
This is fu...ing fun!
Ciao
