Blatant disregard.

Seen today on 123 / Chain Bridge southbound in Fairfax, Va. We ended up together at a light about a mile dw the road. Opened it up on green, he didn't even try! :loser

Sounds like fun . There is a SL500 AMG around here that I have been hoping to pull up next to at a light some day.

What are your opinions on Mercedes calling the new GLE450 an AMG? I personally hate it. I'm fine with GLE450 AMG-Sport, but I hope they don't slap AMG badges everywhere and keep stressing it's an AMG.

Who is calling it an AMG? I know they are making some major changes to their nomenclature but still

Scott Simoncic

They will.

I'm having a personal crisis after reading that I need to take some time off MBWORLD WHAT THE F

AMGAffalterbach

Unless they are renaming products on the basis of Mercedes-Benz, Mercedes-AMG, then some Mercedes-Benz products have an AMG nameplate to indicate the AMG sport package/focus. Either way I'm having major anxieties and I hate change

Thericker

lolol it certainly would change this thread up a bit..

For example take a look at how MB is marketing the GLE450. They're calling it the GLE450 AMG Coupé. I personally do not like that.

A lovely mercedes E350 CDI AMG with regular Mercedes calipers, dual pipes, regular V6 diesel engine with a tractor-like sound, regular cluster and boot decorated with a £15 ebay AMG badge.

The e350 amg is a beast!!! Beware!!

mcobinad

LOL. Beast indeed. Hope this replica 350 AMG beast doesn't meet the real thing.

I have AMG wheels on my E550. Salesperson told me it was part of the Premium II package that included bigger wheels. No badge, though. When I have AMG on the car, it will be because it is an AMG. I totally get this.

mcobinad

AMG wheels on regular Mercedes with AMG sports package is generally palatable. What is frowned upon here is when people go to source AMG badges to compliment the boot of their non AMG cars. Now that is going beyond the borderline. A definite thumbs down in my book.

PeterUbers

I've read, and can't confirm therefore, that though the e350 amg is a 14.5 second car.... It's the fastest 14.5 seconds of any 14.5 second car.... Just sayin

If we are only talking trunk badge I have to agree .nothing worse than hearing some say I just smoked an amg benz .how ever my car was ordered from the factory with sport package and yes the under side of the rear bumper is stamped amg aswell as the spare tire wheel 5 spoke amg and all the expensive *** grill mesh amg as well. Should I sell my car becuase I'm a poser I have s500 on my trunk lid and that's it

tw2

That's just passing the problem onto someone else isn't it

As long as you don't have the trunk badge you are not posing. There is tons of AMG marked equipment straight from the MB factory. for instance, My ML has the AMG appearance package on it so the wheels are AMG wheels and marked as such. The engine, suspension, and braking is non-AMG so there is no AMG badge on the back.

Guys... There is a clear epidemic here. They're eagerly affixing AMG badges to their Benzes, and jumping on grenades for all of us...

FWIW they had a GLE63 at the Detroit auto show... and it wasn't labelled as a "concept".

AMGAffalterbach

They aren't slapping on AMG badges, only a small one on the front fender to indicate it is an AMG sport model. They will keep the nomenclature AMG-Sport thankfully
