i commented on the video. LOL

decent as a show car, but FAIL as a daily driver.

the stupid *** person who wrote the article also FAIL to realize C55 sold in SA is built in SA with only the engine and interior bits being the only component sent over from the AMG factory. everything is assembled in SA.

the right-hand drive cars are. most SA C32/55 are mostly sold to SA and Australia and some Asian country. Hong Kong for example. European C32/55 with right-hand drive are made in Germany. Asian market gets a mixed of SA made or Germany made car.
