Pair of AMG's spotted in Canberra Australia

Post by 300CE-24 3.4 »

Couldn't see a spot to put actualy sightings rather than online sightings so here we go. Two years back a Genuine 500SEC AMG showed up and work. Just had to dig mine out of storage to get a shot of the two of them next to each other. The 500SEC is the real deal with great documentation.

I think that SEC is one of two that were imported together to Australia? The other one being a signal red SEC?

Correct, the owner of the blue 500SEC has pictures of both cars being picked up in Germany. I will see if he is interested in signing up to the forum..

Funny part is you can see in the pictures that they did not come with AMG wheels. The owner stated it was due to a customs/duty cost.
