We’ve seen Benzes battle the Nissan GT-R on the drag strip before, but there are two things that never get old: drag races, and drag races against the Nissan GT-R. In this week’s AMG Monday Morning Wake-Up Call we’ve got a lively drag race for you: 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4MATIC versus 2010 Nissan […] More »

When Mercedes first pulled the cover off the SLS AMG, I looked at and thought… “The SLR is way cooler than this.” I stand by that now. No, it didn’t have “gull wings” like the classic SL 300. It probably can’t corner as well as the SLS AMG either. In fact, AMG wasn’t even a […] More »

Automotive magazines are like casinos. They’re skilled at making sure they win more often than they lose. Motor Trend recently hedged its bets by testing a 2014 Audi RS 5 against a 2014 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG 507 Edition coupe. Ron Kiino, Jonny Lieberman and Randy Pobst were going to have a great time, no matter […] More »
