History of AMG *video*

There was a more indepth one awhile back on discoveryHD....pretty cool.

Wow, deceiving.. it shows that the 5.5L engine debuted in 2001, and the picture is of the SL55, which only debuted in 2003

Meh. They didn't even mention the 70-90s AMG development. What about the Hammer?

Yeah, I was expecting to see something about the Hammer and the Baby Hammer....

Supercharged 5.5L V8 Kompressor engine

It was a ***** to get mine over the border.. I have a full-post earlier on describing how I got it over... Basically, i had to get it plated in the states, and i got it shipped over in the back of a truck.. I initially tried over the Buffalo border to get it past, but they're like no way.. Because I don't have a florida license, or a work-visa etc... I said i had residence, didn't matter. They said I could get it over for a import fee (i think 11%), but I refused that.. Three weeks later, the guy brought it over in a truck with a few cars on the back, and it got past.. I "take" it back to the states every six months. I've been pulled over a few times, and have just said it's an American car, i'm bringing back in a few months... and I have no problems, even too some dick head cops.. But now that it's here, and it's the only one, I'm happy.
