Couldn't agree more!

I think AMG is listening to you guys in the form of having an LSD available, even though it should be standard, and Nurburgring suspension, SL Performance pack, etc.

The new C55 AMG, and SLK 55 should address the problems, and should be great cars to drive...the C facelift 230K has got a lot of positive reviews, saying its AS GOOD AS a BMW 3 series! Now add AMG to the mix with Nring suspension, and you can see where this argument is going...

RC, would it be possible if I asked you to test drive the C55 and SLK55? I would love to hear your opinion concerning these cars and comapre them to the E55...You have pretty close friends at AMG, it should be worthwhile?

And as for Mercedes steering I can say, ALL Mercedes have this horrendous feel, simply there is NO feel! Some of their cars have decent weighting so you don't feel like you're driving a Lexus, but then horrendous kickback comes as standard!

Why can't they just implement a totally new system?
