AMG build quality

[pentoman]

I've been wondering about the average build quality of most Mercedes' since, well, the mid-90s (around when the first official Mercedes AMG cars were introduced).

Is the general quality better on AMG cars? I think the interiors were built by AMG rather than Mercedes - are the standards much higher? I also wonder if the same materials were used in the interiors (dash plastics etc) of AMG cars or something better (I for one hope so, especially on the early C-class and W201 E-class).

Do the interiors compare to, say that of a W124 300E?
