Benz says "if we push, they'll bring DTM to US"?????
What the hell does that mean? Like they ever listen to us. If they did, every AMG would be running a pair of shiny/brushed alum turbos.
Anyway, let's start pushing!!!
Article from EMercedesBenz.com
Snippet from it
"I get a lot of pressure from our best customers to bring it to the U.S.," Spitzner told Inside Line. "We would maybe do a bigger series for the U.S. Push us, and it may happen."

I am quite sceptical....
IMHO it will be the performance mods done at the new Performance Studio on customer-ordered cars, and corporate's viewpoint of the experience in doing the various 'Black' and the 'Signature Series' and other 'Editions' which is going to determine what we do or don't get - or what is even available to us - here in the US....

It won't be that car pictured....the entire production run, built by H.W.A., is already spoken for.
The "DTM" referred to is most likely the CLK63 Black Series which has also been called the "new" CLK DTM Black Series in the press. It will be powered by the 6.2 liter V8.
I have a guess at the price, but will keep that to myself until it is confirmed whether of not it will come to the U.S.
