SHAHZ Very nice mate, hopefully this one will stay with you a little longer than the LS lol!! Certainly a lot of car and horses for the money!
ROFL yeah. The LS just wasn't me, but I will definitely miss all of the gadgets in it. Oh and the seats......mmmm...man were they comfy.

Awesome, glad you finally saw the light and went for an AMG!
Those engines are so special, I'm sure you're gonna love this :thumbup:

I really hope so, or I'm pretty sure my mrs is going to leave me after all the 'car stuff' in the past year lol.

The only potential problem is that mercs (even amgs) are soft so won't be the absolute sharpest drive that the BMW would be. But once you get used to that glorious noise, raw speed and comfort, I don't think you'll be looking back :biggrin:
To the earlier comments it's not all about 0-60 times - 4.7s is pretty **** fast for such a big car anyway, but there's only so quick a 2 ton lump of metal can get to 60. The thing that makes these so awesome is the power that's available whatever speed you're doing and even from pretty low revs.
Lol I'm so excited and it's your car, I so want my own AMG.......(preferably an SLS please
)

Providing I don't get turfed out of the jap club, I'll have to bring it to a meet so I can take ya'll out for a ride
Next tunnel run I'll have to do a resonator delete and come along.

Tunnel runs are Japanese only lol

Wasn't the last charity one (children in need?) open to all? Or was that not a tunnel run

Don't think it was a tunnel run I'm afraid lol

Will it was all Jap apart from the odd exception, there was a kit car Shelby there. Don't worry there are plenty of Merc owners meets and runs!!! I was amazed at how many American car meets there are throughout the year.
