5 awesome old school AMG Mercedes you haven't heard of
Hi thought I'd share this article I found on Jalopnik this am. Here is the link: http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/5-a...-of-1272649755

Our dear C43 AMG (well almost) is featured there! What a nice way to kick the week of!

Enjoy!

I'd like to build one of those next. Think I could squeak one into ChumpCar and give the Bimmers a run.

Nice list, have heard of all of them. One of the rarest AMG's I consider isn't even Mercedes. The Mitsubishi Debonair V 3000 Royal AMG (also on Jalopnik), back before AMG was owned by Mercedes.
