paddle shifters

...according to my sources AMG will be offering paddle-shifter-upgrade kits within a couple of months that are suposed to be compatible with all 2003-2006s...

this just for those who were wondering about that - and by then, we will offer that as well offcourse...no need to mail about that already as I don't know anything more as what I wrote in this thread.

greetingz,

For those who are interested in getting the AMG steering wheel with paddle shifters... just keep an eye open on this board. As Steve said, he doesn't have more info except for what he mentioned in his first post.

... I know, impatience is a hard thing to live with.
