HSV v AMG

Postby mnrolvr » Fri 09 May, 2014 5:47 pm

A mate at work recently bought a Merc and whilst choosing his car the salesman tried to put him into a C63 AMG with the words "It'll eat an HSV and leave it for dead." How's this for a drag race, brand new supercharged GTS and E63 AMG...a heavier car!

Say what you will about the "classic" automobile but plastic is fantastic....

Yeah pretty good video.

As it said the only difference was the gear changing.

Plastic is fantastic.

But steel is real!
