How AMG transformed the C Class

Hey guys:

My wife just picked up the November issue of Mercedes Enthusiast and there is a pretty good article about the C36 and C43, and how AMG changed the C Class.

There are other articles in the mag worth reading as well.

Regards

DLS

Geez, I have no idea. I know that they carry it at my local Tower records, but it is a UK magazine and it all depends if your store(s)have ordered it.

I would call around to specialty magazine shops and see if they have it. It would cost about $8, but it is worth it.

Also, you can backorder some of the magazines at : www.mercedesenthusiast.co.uk All of their issues (except the 1st) can still be ordered.

Good luck finding one,

DLS

Damnit!! I was browsing through this magazine in a Borders bookstore but I didn't purchase it. Now I'm kicking myself in the ***! It was a good article and in depth about the AMG C36 and C43. It talked about their history and it mentioned that right now is a good time to buy one as opposed to when they were brand new ($$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!!!!!!!!!). I'm also a BMW enthusiast (Shhh!!) and it seems to me that all the UK automobile magazines available are very good. The US mags just plain suck compared to the content of the UK ones. They cost a little more, but are so worth it.

No doubt. I agree that UK mags are pretty good. There is alot of good information and shop information that you can find these types of mags. Unfortunately, I do not always get to pick up the M Enthusiast. Though, the ones that I have picked up have been read from cover to cover.

Anyway, GO GET THAT ISSUE!!!!!!! Especially since you have a C43.
