I've heard it adds 85-90bhp (conservative estimate)
Spotted the elusive "C35" today

Nice photo work while driving.
Along the same lines, I was at my local MB dealer this weekend seeing if they had a c63 on display yet (they didn't) and I saw a brand new C350 with an AMG emblem on the right side of the trunk. Too bad that dealers are slapping the badges on non AMG's...and I feel bad for the person who picks up the car not knowing that they will be the subject of ridicule for the term of their ownership.

Hmmm... wonder what that does to the value of real AMG's? Can't be positive. I think that might just make me mad. No, wait, it does make me mad and if I knew about a specific MB dealer slapping AMG badges on non-AMG cars I would definately report the dealership to AMG.

If AMG is fine with that then okay, but still makes me mad. I would rather that be called the "Sport" package (aesthetics) v. "AMG Package" (performance).

i will be adding a zero and removing the AMG badge when i get the car. along with your run of the mill performance mods and custom tune itll be quite the sleeper haha.
