2003 New Model Cars Article

Conspicuously dynamic The AMG sports package- for a particularly powerful presence The design of the Sports Cars leaves no doubt about the car’s sporty credentials. If you want to give your Sports Cars an even more muscular look, we’d like to make you an offer that we think you’ll find attractive-not just in terms of its looks: the AMG sports package, featuring a dynamic AMG front apron and 17-inch 6-twin-spoke AMG light-aloy wheels with 225/45 tyres at the front and 245/40 tyres at the rear. You can also opt for 18-inch 5-twin-spoke AMG light-alloy wheels. The sports suspension, which is lowered by 15mm, actively helps to enhance driving pleasure-as do the speed-sensitive power steering and the perforated front brake discs with” Mercedes-Benz” lettering. The AMG sports package created a specials atmosphere inside the car, too: the sports seats provide secure support and, like the ear seats, are upholstered in Liverpool fabric/ARTICO man-made leather. Genuine leather appointments are available as an option. Also included in the AMG sports package are a sporty 3-spoke steering wheel featuring shift paddles for gear selection (When fitted in conjunction with an automatic transmission). Brushed stainless-steel sports pedals, black floor mats with AMG lettering, a black roof lining and an aluminium-look shift/selector lever are further highlights of the sporty interior.
