Yes mate front ones comes with the AMG engraved on it rear's not but all made by ATE (font/rear/pump/booster/rear discs) & SHW front discs

I think the same of you "why not amg engraved in the rears"? the E39 M5 comes with the same ate calipers and comes with the ///M engraved up front and rear

Ya Fab! Where are you again? Europe right? put it your sig bro

The thing w/our AMG brakes if you do buy aftermarket they won't last as long as many members tried that route to only be disappointed and spend more money on OEM. Sux but no cheap way out- Autohaus has them at $232 w/free shipping.

If you find them cheaper let me know I need to get a set as well. Mine are somewhat warped but not to bad but needs to be replaced soon.

Gas here?? is more cheap than the water is stupid the price but we have really poor quality on the gasoline here, buuuuttt.. the price is incredible, one gallon here cost 0.04BsF = 0.004$ or so like that

Other words: I fill my e55 Full tank with 6.5 BsF = 0.65$

I programm my car with the star diag in full rich mode, running on no cats + resonator deleat + kleemann headers + BMC's we no have here any regulation to alter our cars.. Chep gas? Yes, but this country runs lke shat with this government , streets are like trash, this is a total ruin

Yea this is why we dont cry when we floored the car . But trust me, this country runs like S%$t with this A&%&e president here 50% of the cars here now (in the last 5 yrs) are armored cars like the bmw protections or made by companies like o'gara hess, centigon security, blindcorp, etc.. This can tell you the insecurity level here..

Same here, right now it is about $3.65/gallon which is down from $4.20/gallon a couple months ago

Costs me about $60 to fill up and lasts me about a week

Venezuela, which has the largest oil reserves, maintains a price of Bs.F 0.097 per litre (around US$0.02), and has done so since 1998. Last time they tried to raise the price there were riots.

With the latest devaluation, the lowest exchange rate available is Bs.F 4.3 per US$, which means that a liter of gasoline in Venezuela is: (Bs.F 0.097/Bs.F 4.3)= 0.0225 US$ cents
A number so small, that it is hard to relate to. Try 8.5 cents a gallon

If gas was that cheap here I would have about $400 more each month in my pocket instead of my gas tank...

(we can't change BsF to any other money legally) this way we have a paralel price (ilegal or personal money change) rounding 10BsF per usd :S
