"Tina Marie" was purchased from the States in October 2008 (U.S. Specs) and was shipped to Germany. 

Above Pics, Car being delivered to me at the customs office in Germany... 

This is one of 579 cars hand built in 1998 at the AMG factory in Affalterbach, Germany. 

 

I love to be able to drive on the German Autobahn, To me this is the only true place to be able to see what your car will really do...well without worrying about breaking the law.

 

Top Speed As of July 2009

 150MPH / 240KPH

They say the top speed is 180...We'll see
