I was at the dealer last week and saw it in person with the SOLD sign on it. It's a sweet ride.

Cool you actually got the car delivered to your place fully wrapped? Did they do a PDI before? Did you put winter tires on right away?

I went skiing this morning and it is not that bad in light snow. I climbed to Auberge du Mont Gabriel (steep climb with light snow on road and no problem...).

Looking forward to putting the summer wheels and maybe do a combined photo shoot with both beasts (reunited at last in Montreal!!)

The car is dirty as hell already after highway driving in slushy conditions. I will get it cleaned before pictures (It's like an actress without makeup... you dont really want to see that!)

It wont see winter at all ! As for the PDI,they only did the mechanic chek up I would say...did the rest myself saturday morning in my garage! For sure this summer we should snap some pics together!

As for the 2011/2012 debate I thought about it deeply but limited to 30 units and all the options in it...it was almost a no brainer...for me I must say...

I at least would've done the same. Only reason i would go for 2012 in your case would be the improved interior, although the affalterbach edition has a bit more special interior than the other ones. Gotta love the exclusivity of it

Congrats to both of you MTL fellows for the amazing cars!! I would be afraid to drive this car in the winter with such a beautiful matte paint. BTW, how do you even wax this type of finish? Or fix rock chips?

I just got my first AMG ticket... 96 km/h in 60 zone! I just stepped on it for one second and "boom"... red and blue lights in my mirror. I was with my step brother and we tried hard to make the girl go easy but the (*&?%"/ gave me the ticket anyways! 229$ and 3 points in the first 24h of ownership!!!

Nice! I feel the car's pain with that snow and ice build up. Makes Baby Jesus cry. I'm glad I don't have snow
