You probably know that the tuning arm of Mercedes Benz is called AMG. You probably don't know that it was started by two men in a shed, and a love of the old Merc 300.
Mssrs Hans-Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher set up shop in Großaspach as an independent tuning firm, and their resultant ‘AMG' quickly became the master at making mighty Mercedes. And seeing as we've just driven the new SLK 55 AMG, we thought it would be a good time for a quick visual history lesson in the form of this informative video offering.
Once you have digested this nugget of horsepower history, tell us what your favourite AMG car is in the handy box-shaped area below.

m division is way more advanced and makes better cars than amg!first of all they use smaller engines that most of the times have more power output and cars that are more efficient and track oriented.
