I like it. I like that MB is producing AWD AMGs. It's a very cool option for folks who want a powerful, year-round, driver in places that get crappy weather. Yes I understand that all-season tires suck, and yes I understand that you can put snows on a RWD car and do OK, but one thing I do miss about my Evo X MR, 335xi and GTR is that "all weather" capability.
I don't like the modern MB design aesthetic, unfortunately. Can't deny that they are becoming the king of the "classy muscle car" though, and in the hands of a *really competent* driver, they hang at the track as well (stress on really competent... they're a handful on the track and the #s don't tell you that the way actually driving one does. Thats why bench racing is pointless)
