  • 2018 Mercedes-AMG Winter Sporting event

    Mercedes-AMGs are known for big, brutish power that loves to go sideways. But what’s power without control? To highlight the difference in how various AMG powertrains maintain—or lose—control, Mercedes-AMG offers a winter driving academy dubbed the AMG Winter Sporting event. Chief instructor Danny Kok says the point of attending is to experience and learn sliding in an AMG—and to have fun. For a well-rounded experience, the 2018 Mercedes-AMG Winter Sporting event featured a healthy mix of vehicles that ranged from the twin-turbo V-8, rear-wheel drive C63 S sedan and...

  • A G63 AMG 6x6 can still get stuck in the snow
    Turns out snow can conquer a Mercedes-AMG G63 6x6

    The Mercedes-AMG G63 6x6 is an absolute monster of a machine. You start with a regular G-Class, which is already a tough off-road-oriented beast with three differentials.

  • 2006 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG sold for $3,750

    Depreciation is the ninth wonder of the world. (Compound interest is the eighth, in case you're wondering.) When it comes to picking out some of the finest automobiles, their high asking prices may not always lead to sky-high residual values. In this case of this 2006 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG, it sold for less than 2 percent of its original MSRP. That's correct, this $200,000 luxury sedan was bought for the same price as some common economy cars; the seller walked away with the car after handing over $3,750 in cash. According to the buyer, who posted the purchase to YouTube in the video above...
