Not true. Pagani has AMG proudly displayed on the engines (and a builder's plaque)... the link was specifically referring to the powerplants, not fenders.

Don't get a C63.
C63 owners are the chihuahuas of the MB crowd, IMO... they bought the ballsiest version of the (at the time) entry model. Yet, they act as if their feces are as scent-free as the SLS owners. Because "same motor"
Besides, the M156 motor has had its share of issues... oil, head studs, list goes on...
An older Aston V8 suits you better IMO... You enjoy style and sound more than brute force. The Aston has the first two in spades... Lord knows you don't need more speed
