Affalterbach AMG visit - Page 2

**-1-** · 04-19-2007

Obviously, only BEAUTIFUL cars allowed at AMG HQ. I like the idea of the red mats in the silver SLK 55, the red stitching on the seats and doors is OK, but the dash is too much. No so sure about the two tone wheels, but they're neat.

you are a lucky man to take that tour. great, informative post. thanks you.

I love that SLK55, wish I could get mine with the same interior.
The wheels look great and make it look very mean, Wish they were lighter. Ive heared they are anchors and not beneficial interms of performance.

Hey INDWWW I lost your business card, if you still have my contact info give me a call or drop me an email. Let me know when your car arrives here in Charlotte. I am close to 2000 miles already on my little red baby beast, whih has been newly nicknamed SLINKY... Take the traction off, give it some gas you will know why the name fits

That would look nice on a car with Mars Red outside. But with silver outside and mostly black inside, it looks like an afterthought and the mats draw your attention to the dirtiest place.

Definatly design by a Hetero....

.....somehow I missed it when it was new. Thanks! I'm inspired to go over to pick up a new C63 next year and tour the M-B AND the ///AMG assembly plants if possible.
