And yes, I am seriously considering an AMG Badge...as some have already done and reported in another thread. I looks much better than the 4Matic logo and as stated in the C & D review...it really is the AMG package without the AMG engine and brake mods. If we 550 owners don't put that AMG logo on you will never see a GL with it in the future...:-)
Jack, please don't do it. A Mercedes without a hand built AMG engine should not have an AMG badge. Just my opinion, but to me it would have a negative effect on a great car. It would remind of the the days when people put SS logo's on regular Chevy's when you knew they were not. Maybe I am too much of a purist.
