True. The distinction is wishful thinking on my part. But in a decade or so if I still own my 2012 C63 that engine builder’s signature is what will distinguish my car from the lot of these C43s and the like. Assuming Mercedes continues down this route. I was perfectly fine with AMG-sport to target those in the market…

The distinction will be there. Your engine won’t have the builder’s signature on it, at minimum.

Shame on the dealership if they sold him that car without fixing the recall

Hmm this is a bad article.

Highdea: Put these fuckers in F1 cars.

People gave been calling me crazy for years for suggesting this. In the northeast, dedicated sets of summer/winter wheels is the only way to live.

No AMG engines yet? Boooooooo!

Nothing like a big body benz.

For sure! Nothing against SIs, the ‘07s were especially tremendous platforms. But if you slap on an ebay turbo and push 320hp to the wheels your “honda reliability” card goes out the window.

Clowns in boosted SIs claiming their cars are more reliable than a normally aspirated AMG, M3, 911, etc...

Same color scheme they used on the 2017 edition 1 C63S coupe. I wonder who at AMG has a thing for yellow on matte grey

The dealerships seems to have plenty of brand new 2015 models on the lots unspoken for, and they are trying to unload them all before the 2016s arrive.

After seeing that gif on the article list, I’m mad you gave us a horsepower figure but not the thing that truly matters: torque rating

I feel like this could be an amazing show with just a duo of Schmitz and Harris. Am I wrong?

I always liked the 560SL’s manifold, at least compared to the newer AMG engines

I just bought one as a dedicated winter vehicle to keep the salt off my C63. It has every single piece of technology my C63 has, is only 0.5 seconds slower to 60mph, and with a set of snow tires it absolutely owned the blizzards that hit New England this weekend.

Toyota not giving a shit, what a surprise!

282,000 miles? Thats not even as many miles as we had on my mom’s 1997 E-class when she decided not to pay to have the air conditioner recharged again. In the Benz world, we refer to a car like this as “matured”

I will never for the life of me understand how a sane person leaves their house and ends up owning the abomination that is the RC-F

I believe Mercedes will also reproduce for you any part from any car all the way back to the 300SL and beyond but of course they will pass the entirety of the cost to you. But I’m sure with the right budget someone could work their way through the catalogue and slowly piece together a brand new 1973 240D
