I know a joke, but it requires being close enough to punch you in the arm.

C63

I was in IAD 3 weeks ago, I saw a white and a black C63 along with a Porsche Panamera. Going back there next week hope to see it again.

I rented a 13' Mustang GT in Phoenix from Hertz a while back and was disappointed to find that turning traction control off made no difference what so ever. I assumed this was a special "Hertz tune" to prevent drifting, beating etc. I would be surprised if the AMG's were not governed or detuned.

I wish i knew someone at Hurtz!
They gotta have GPS trackers in these things esp after all the high rate of exotic car theft in South Florida. This has cost exotic car rental places (there are a lot in Miami) a pretty bundle when the car disappears on a container bound for South America or Asia.
