AMG Performance Studio starts operations

With the AMG Performance Studio, Mercedes-AMG GmbH starts a new initiative to meet individual customer requirements. Along with the AMG high-performance automobiles available through the worldwide Mercedes-Benz sales organisation, the Performance Studio develops and produces special AMG vehicles in exclusive numbers. The first to benefit is the SLK 55 AMG Black Series, which makes extraordinary driving experiences possible with its 294 kW / 400 hp V8 engine from the M 113 series and many lightweight components, including the carbon-fibre hardtop.
