The exclusive sporty appearance is completed by the 18-inch AMG-alloy wheels, the AMG multi-function steering wheel and the AMG combination-instrument with 300 km/h tachometer.
And I thought tachometer displays RPM, silly me...

The new issue of Mercedes Enthusiast also says they've started making a right-hand drive version of this for those wacky countries were they drive on the wrong side of the road. :p

This proves that you can get anything you want if you are willing to pay for it. I don't think you will ever see a C230 AMG in regular production because it would be too close to the C32 in price.

In Deutsch, Tachometer = Speedometer in English

In Deutsch, Drehzahlmesser = Tachometer (Rev Counter) in English

Thus a "300 km/h Tachometer" simply betrays poor German-English translation skills on the part of someone at AMG

likely the C32 coupe will cost more than the C32 sedan because of its limited quantities and yeah limited quantities... just like the new S63 or the W202 C55 from before, they cost a lot more.
