I hate to say but you did him wrong... he should have gone for the Lotus. I would have! As a matter of fact, I would have stayed with the SRT. In my opinion, I wouldn't have gone for any Mercedes. It is a common car and looks like everything else whether it is an AMG or not. Give me a Lotus or Crossfire any day of the week. Nobody knows what it is because it is less common... then you can blow their pants off and make them wonder. When an AMG pulls up next to you everyone knows you will get beat so there is no "what The F was that" reaction after an **** whipping.
