I was referring to the overall quality with the downhill comment. I do agree overall the new AMG’s are badass performance wise-- they’re just not my type of car, but that’s irrelevant in this particular discussion.
There were some badass Mercedes in the 60’s, 70’s & 80’s. There was a V8 Mercedes in the 60’s that hauled ass-- I’ll have to look it up. AMG Hammer in the 80’s, etc.
