C32
I was at the HWA factory 2 years ago when they where building it. In fact when I saw it it was no longer an A, it was stripped down completely. They even had to modify the ****pit in order to fit the engine. It looks like an A but besides that it has nothing to do with an A.
Origininally it had been designed for some rich German industrial guy who had 2 of these build (1 was used to crash it into the crashwall in order to get the necessary safety permits to get it on the road legally).

You know that the filter settings on your forum are absurd when you can't even say "cocckkpit" without the computerized mommy slapping your post on the wrist. Give me a break! If a man wants to talk about his cocckkpit, he should be able to.

As far as the car goes, this has to be the most humorous post I have ever seen. 300K Euros is about $380,000.00 U.S.D.. Gee, let me think. . . I could a new Porsche turbo, a Modena Spyder, a C55, and an M3, or I could have chicks laughing at me as I pull up in my new pimplemobile "mini Plymouth Voyager." Decsisions, decisions. . .

The Fiesta SHOgun was a lot better implementation of a similar concept, but it looked better and was much faster. Jay Leno has a SHOgun . It was also much cheaper.

BUMP for the A32K

Bump for those who have not seen this yet. I saw this today while looking at HWA AG's website. A-Class built with the M112K motor. Looks cool. Only one was made. The interior has Recaro Sport seats, which are very comfortable BTW(my driverside seat). I wouldn't mind driving that around since it's probably easier to park and see out the rear window. But, it weighs more than my coupe.

From the pictures, it does not look like an easy swap; they had to cut into the engine bay firewall.

Carlos/Saprissa, you should ask HWA AG if they'll build you an A-Class M112K for your wife, and a M112K for your CL203. Seriously...HWA AG and AMG are two separate tuners now.
