From what I recall...it's some really rich and famous guy in the UAE tha got AMG to do this for him.

I believe he is working on a ELR (lol I dunno what he would call it...E class with SLR engine in it).

I guess if forced, I'd drive it. Why can't I have funds like that? BTW, I think I've read that it was done by the guy's personal shop, as well as having his E55 morphed into the same Ferrari destroyer.
