    That was such a cool car. A neighbour had one and i just thought it was great. A real Q-car too. You have to know your stuff to tell it from a normal one.

    Agreed, a proper sleeper car. Also I didnt know there was an A-Class AMG

    There isn't (except for some specials). The car in the picture probably is an A210 Evolution.

    Why take this over the C55 AMG? I would much rather have the C55. If I am correct, this has the supercharged V6 with the electromagnetic deactivation for fuel economy. Sounds complicated and easy to break down.

    When the C32 was built the C55 wasn't even in sight So this was the biggest engine in the C-Class back than.

    True, but when the C55 and C32 look almost identical, I'd rather have the C55.

    And the 55 has the epic V8.

    That's exactly why. Screw the V6.

    the 32 is also much lighter then the 55. The 55 feels like a boat.

    But the V8 is so much more special than the V6 (albeit that it's supercharged). I certainly wouldn't mind the extra weight. How much more heavy is it anyway?

    It's not like you buy an AMG C-Class for the handling anyway.

    For that you get an M3.
