I predicted this.....
I made a Hard Copy of the last four pages.

It was too good to pass up
I had some classic lines in there.

Also in that thread it was discussed you did not know enough about future AMG products
Ive provided the link that showcases the 2012 AMG C63.

http://www.autoblog.com/2011/01/27/2...c63-leaks-out/

Perhaps you should brush on your reading so that in the future BMW owners wont poke fun in your sensitive hide.

Drew, that article was released today My posts were from the 26th, the day before this release. Next time I'll call Brenda Priddy personally for some shots. ** Nice find though...........too bad they didn't do the 550 HP 5.5 TT??? Maybe 2013?? I guess the 6.3 doesnt have enough production to affect the CAFE for MB. The white car with black wheels and red calipers looks awesome......... and they kept the P31 development package going.....HMM, gots me thinkin now?? If you take European delivery, I think you can still get one of two matte finishes too!!

I think I stopped reading the idiocy after the second page. Good to see the garbage was cleaned off this relatively good/polite forum.

I think the 335i always come up in every racing thread. Then again, i'm sure they do the same thing to the m3 guys. But i will admit, i'm tempted to get a CPO 335i.

Nice. Facelift 204 is win. Fixed just about everything I hated about the 204, but I'll still be keeping my 203 for a long time to come.

Wont happen. Twin Turbo wont appear in the E other than a E550 or a C Class Sedan. The C Class Coupe BS will get the TT. Unfortunately the E63 will still be NA which is too bad.

That rear end needs to change. Perhaps graft the *** of a W202 on the back of that W204 and you would have a good looking car.
