PP. Amg?

Is it normal to have the pp. Amg package without the red calipers??

I thought the cf engine cover equals red calipers
Or only US mb's have it?!? wtf i don t get it

2013 ML63 AMG with PP
WTF??? Yes, you should have recieved Red Calipers if you have paid for the Performance Pack. i.e. Red AMG Calipers, CF Engine Cover, +33HP, Speed Limiter changed to 174mph etc

What colour calipers do you have? I have the PP as well and my Brake Calipers are Red!!! (I'm in Australia)

Hmm strange... is your steering wheel in half alcantara? If not... you definitely don't have the PP on it (I think)

Hi,

I have the PP (including CF engine cover, steering wheel half in alcantara), but I have also chosen for grey calipers to be a little more discrete.

We can chose here between red or grey calipers when you chose for the PP.

Greetz,
