Spent Thursday in Dallas attending the AMG Challenge. What an awesome event! First class in every way. My instructor was John Paul Jr! The Autocross cars were brand new C55 AMG's, wonderful cars. I feared they would be unbalanced, but were very agile. The fit/finish was great, some nice AMG touches.

It is a normally aspirated 55, but has the 4 big exhaust pipes at the rear like the V8 Kompressors. I was told by the AMG product manager this will be a standard AMG feature (Like all the BMW M's).

Also, drove the E55, SL55, CL55 and S55 in various events and 130MPH on the TMS high bank oval.....got a ride in the back seat of the Maybach at 140MPH !!! 6000LBS of high speed luxury!
