that would be real nice. I think it won't be here in North America for another 2 years, possibly arriving in the Fall 2021 as MY2022.

My wife actually prefers her Honda Odyssey over an SUV, but now that our car pool to school days are ending, she has been thinking about what to get as a replacement.

This looks really interesting.

There is nothing about the BMWs that interest me or the Audi...
I guess I just got bored with the GTS and now with winter on the way I worry about rocks and gravel on the canyon roads tearing off my front splitter..
Maybe it's time to make a few more videos and count my lucky stars...

Are you sure the “S” is coming?

I know markets are different but up here in Canada we will only be getting the A45 without the S...

My E63s wagon isn't going anywhere, it's just that I don't drive the GTS that much while the wagon can do everything I ask of it.
I'm just thinking a less expensive toy might be more entertaining in the canyons. I hate having to tell myself don't f up it'll be expensive if you do, it kinda takes he fun out of the drive.

Looks very nice in real life.
There is impressive "drift" video posted on the AMG PL web site! Perfect match for the canyons....
Do we know when it is coming to the US?
