aroppi that was the dumbest thing ive ever heard. Think about it for a second, it is a German built sports car that will probably retail for around $150K. AMG is not going to build a Piece of S*** car. Sorry but we aren't talking about American cars here.

hey CarlssonBenz,
the dumbest thing??
U mean what i've said about highway vs twisty hillside? or what??

don't U know the new E55 AMG was terrible when we drive in the twisty hillside!!!!!
ALL the time ALL the moment the traction control and all those "safety devices" work SO hard in order to make the car stable!!!!
i'll say...
we are not playing PC games!!! a more balance car would be prefered.
that's why for the Bimmer fans, even the E30 M3 is still the best although it was built in the 80's to early 90's.
Lotus cars are still one of the best handling cars with a balance body and power!!!!

a tuning company will always put the things to the limit in order to win the market or other purposes. sometimes even a car manufacturer may also do so!!!!
say... the X5 by BMW, actually it's NOT the style of a Bimmer but the SUV market is so popular in the US, so they did it. in fact, a true Bimmer fans will never like that!!!
similar idea as the Porsche SUV.
Mercedes, M class is no way compare with the G Wagon. but it's the market demand...

if U think it's dumb to think in this way, i'll say we have different ideas about driving. that's ok indeed.
but... it'll be the dumbest think to say a different attitude is the dumbest thing.
