Honestly I believe it is all marketing. personally I wouldnt want my car with someone's name or signature on it. AMG engines are hand assembled, they dont make the block, crankshafts, pistons etc. out of hand from last I checked. How many AMG are built in a year? Hardly likely they make it all by hand. Yes it is an awesome motor and the reason why it is down tuned is not because for aftermarket purposes but so it wont trump the higher end models like E, CL etc. Even if it was for marketing at least in the end it gives the end consumer something to talk and brag about. After all he/she did pay for a special vehicle.
