100 times better! Wow, that's incredible. We all love AMGs, but I think you're underselling VF just slightly there.
i agree i checked and they are only 97 times better:smoking:

VE SSV MY9.5 M6 UTE
Not under pinning the vf, its a nice car for sure but heres just one small example....
I assume the vf has the same rest reminder as the ve (?). You know the coffee cup that comes up on the screen after the engine has been running for 2 and a half hours...

Engine running, 2.5 hours = coffee cup signal.

Now look at mbz fatigue assist.... (30 second vid)

See the difference? 100 times better!! (Also note, this is 4 years old)

Getting of topic i know....

Anyone expecting AMG refinement from a tarted up taxi with a big donk is going to be disappointed. Anyone expecting a barrel of fun from a tarted up taxi with a big donk is going to love it. Personally I'd never buy a new or late model AMG/M/RS Audi because I hate cars that have more smarts than me and cost more to maintain than my wife. That's why I'll always stick with older, simpler cars I can wrench on myself, and turn them into what I want them to be. Sadly I have other priorities at the moment.

Haven't you just described an AMG C63, E63, S63 & S65? :)

More cars than I've got space to park!
The Corvette Z06 hasn't had the old Gen IV LS9 engine for years, I didn't even think they were making LS9's any longer?

The current Z06 has the Gen V LT4 supercharged engine...
