We get the 5K AMG package which looks good, but does very little to actually make the E any sportier. They're going to have to do something to the suspension of the E500 going from 302hp to 382 hp. A car with that much power deserves a kick-ass sport package able to take it right to the 550i and Infiniti M45 Sport, for those who want a Benz capable of doing so.
