You may have heard that, but it's coming from the guy who wants to think he has a real AMG, and those ain't it. They may have been purchased with //AMG on the trunk, but that was dealer installed, not MB. When I bought the '06 E55 at FJ, there was a S550 with the sport package and whadayaknow, //AMG on the trunk lid!

I still get a kick out of seeing (in Mission Viejo, California) a Black C240 (badging still on the left side) and AMG on the right side of the car. Yeah, a C240 AMG. Not even AMG wheels on it. Go figure . . .

No, some SL's were badged that way according to thread above. In all honesty, I think some people really overplay the AMG brand. They are nice cars....I just never looked at any of them that different with the exception of the SL, CL, S55/65's as those are $125k-200k AMG cars....the AMG'ing of the flagship Benz models.
