AMG really just, "Okay it's tuned, but what if the wheels looked like this instead", and they nailed it every single time, pretty much all of their wheels look incredible.
Damn I guess I gotta put some respect on all those rusty civics rocking amg badges while riding on no less than one donut at all times. Ultra-rare collector pieces there 🙌🏼
Those AMG Hondas were some of the coolest cars in ZA. Honda Ballades (Civics) were built under license by Mercedes-Benz SA in East London from 1982 to the mid 90s alongside the C-Class that eventually, effectively replaced them. In terms of quality and image, they were a cut above the other Japanese manufacturers. There were two generations that AMG fettled for the South African market, the EF and EG. It was mostly cosmetic with wheels, suspension, spoilers, some interior bits and a sports exhaust. The EF in particular stood out with its low bonnet and bootline, it just looked slammed to the ground. In the late 80s it was radical for a factory built car. When the EG came around it made everything else look like dinosaurs, (there was even had an ad to drive home the point). In the 90s, I remember drooling over my aunts red EG AMG and wishing that my dad had bought one instead of the stock Ballade, (it was still pretty fast though, the insurance company said I couldn't drive it). Years later (2003) I bought an 11 year old, 180 000km Ballade (sadly not an AMG) that still looked and felt as good as new. Mercedes-Benz, at that time, really knew how to put a car together. To the best of my knowledge the kits were developed for MBSA by AMG. Each car had an AMG plaque next to the VIN plate. The AMG wheels were 15" polished 5 spoke alloys with a cyclone design and not the Borbet 17s in the pics. The green one at 2:03 had the the right rims and spoiler. The white and red ones were stock 160E/180Es with aftermarket rims.
My dad had one in green. It had a very unique body kit which I haven’t seen since, it was lowered, had the coolest mags and a loud loud exhaust. Inside it had bucket seats on the front, a different sports steering wheel and a loud JVC stereo system. It was one unique Honda, I wish it was still around 🥺.
@@joe125ful Not true, there is some potential there. When you realise that an electric car has 2 or 3 engines, does it run badly? No, its works great!
Great vid as usual! Always found the modified A38 particularly interesting, I wonder how it drove with the two transmissions at each axle. I heard for the A32K that the customer originally wanted the M113 shoved in there, but HWA would have to do far too much for it to fit, so they "settled" for the M112K. I miss these days of AMG weirdness hahah
I very much live in 🇿🇦 but never saw an AMG ballad, despite seeing a ballade everyday 😂... that A 38, A32K and B55 are some cool stuff tho. I wonder why there isn't an AMG B class. Like a B35 at least 😂
I bought one last year and want to see what I missed out on in terms of options. I got a 2014 CLS 63 AMG S with premium one, parktronic, the 19 inch matte wheels, and a bunch of other options. I know already I don't have the higher sound system but wanna see what else.@@ashtons550
w219 or w218? We need a video on the cls55/cls63 w219 for sure. It's a shame these are going for less than the w211 counterparts when they are much more rare simply because people just don't know about them.
@@ashtons550 in what country? The only people I see who own them where I live are the drug dealers and they are all in pretty bad condition sadly. Although there is a local guy with a real R63 that's in decent condition
W202 C43 AMG’s are awesome! I loooove mine. Small little sedan with a v8 is so fun and cool lol. One of mine has a 5.4 swap out of an 01 E55, and it makes it even more crazy fun. I love Mercedes and AMG engineering/tuning
So many things I didn't know! That Honda of south Africa is definitely intriguing, wonder if there's any more information on that. I never would have imagined Honda and amg together 😅
Lets not forget the w203 C30CDI AMG, yes a diesel AMG on the base of the W203 C class (using a modified version of the inline five 270CDI engine) that is not really known of outside of W203 enthusiast circles.
Honda ballade amg it was called in south africa and its really hard to find a decent one in the country and weren't many produced so its a unique rare collectors item similar to the e30 bmw 325is
I can't help wishing that AMG was still an independent company - a Mercedes specialist tuner but with the freedom to work with other brands, like Brabus do these days.
Unfortunately, you can't. If you really want one, you'd have to make it yourself. It's really sad because they look awesome, and the AMG body kit from the regular a210 of which plenty were sold looks pretty bad.
The wierdest AMG is : A. The only Time you will see SRT and AMG on the same car B. The Only SRT Car every to carry Chrysler Badging C. The only SRT-6 badge car D. Only mopar featuring M112k E. All of the above. Answer: E Chyrsler Crossfire SRT-6
Your facts are 100% of honda and merc in South Africa. The honda engine was a naturally aspirated 1600cc with 125 kw and 300 nm .. after amg SA done with it. It was exceptionall expensive ... the M3 was cheaper than the Honda

But ugly
The A-Class was also available as A210 Evolution AMG, with 2.1 engine

Great video
The B55 is pretty cool.
That B-Class(e) is such a childish, irresponsible creation and as an American I am so proud of them for doing it. Bravo!

You forgot the AMG to rule all AMGs THE SMART AMG
R63 AMG is one of my dream cars
I've seen one of the Gallant AMG's for sale right down the road from the house. I never knew they were only built in such low numbers.
you got a new sub, very interesting content
So many things I didn't know! That Honda of south Africa is definitely intriguing, wonder if there's any more information on that. I never would have imagined Honda and amg together 😅
Hey, you could also look into the c30 AMG Diesel coupe!
I didnt knew most of theese existed, great video
Loved that last one!!!
Just shows how pure BMW's are. They did everything on their own and pushed other car markers to follow their lead.
C30 CDI deserves a spot in this list also
Been searching for such a video since 4 years or so. Back then I had a w169 A160 (daddys money). Since then I've always wanted a manual A200 turbo
I had seen A32 in Europe and was very confused. I have only driven regular A-class which is a nice car, btw.
Would really love to know what music is on the background starting at 3:34?
bro try to do a detailed video on w210 e55 amg plz
Yes. And the rare designo color packages you could get colored burlwood interior parts. the w210 e55 is such a cool car
That is in the works
The AMG A Class is so weird, but that’s why I love it
the hot hatches for sure, would definitely cop one
I so want one of those '80s Yakuza AMGs...
I knew them all except the B class v8 loool the engineers went crazy
Lets not forget the w203 C30CDI AMG, yes a diesel AMG on the base of the W203 C class (using a modified version of the inline five 270CDI engine) that is not really known of outside of W203 enthusiast circles.
Not weird at all, nice cars!
Great research and interesting facts. thanks
Honda ballade amg it was called in south africa and its really hard to find a decent one in the country and weren't many produced so its a unique rare collectors item similar to the e30 bmw 325is
as a ballade 180E owner (thanks to my dad) i can say that the car is a cooler better civic the ballade is very tuneable and very fun to drive
the A38 or A32k are the wackiest concept type cars so I'd have to say that is my favourite
What’s the song that starts at 3:35 ?
Great video btw 👍
That B55 is beeeauuuuuuutiful!!
B55, the V8 ultimate hatchback. Man, how I wish they actually build to sell them.
They could but if only Americans appreciated Hatchbacks with a V8 just like they do with their V8 Pickup Trucks.
1:20 GTA Vice City ahh wheels
Maybe a hot take, but I really like the way the A38 looks! 😄
A38 AMG was built by Stola, later Mercedes used the moulds for the A32K AMG.
I was THIS 🤏 close to getting a C30 diesel wagon in Germany last year. But it was too “young” to import. :(
When grandparents want to be sporty too, Mercedes A and B class AMG 😊
I can't help wishing that AMG was still an independent company - a Mercedes specialist tuner but with the freedom to work with other brands, like Brabus do these days.
I just saw a GLS 55 AMG, I think the owner has a GL 550 and switch the 5 and the S , and then stamped the amg badge
Recently I saw smart amg I was shocked 😂
Wow, you needed to add a turbo and an injection system to get 95 horsepower? Was it a briggs & Stratton? Did you have to pull a rope to start the van?
I need to know where I can get the v-6 turbo engine so I can fit into my E-360 Coupe, 2011
Missing the E55 4Matic, the first 4Matic build based on the W210
WoooW that B class
250hp
Why not mention, the MB100D AMG rainbow version?
Feels illegal to be this early.
Does anyone know where I could I get 1 of either the A38 or A32 body kits for the A class merc from ?
Unfortunately, you can't. If you really want one, you'd have to make it yourself. It's really sad because they look awesome, and the AMG body kit from the regular a210 of which plenty were sold looks pretty bad.
These days every basic a class is amg . MB realized a lot cheaper to sell stickers then performance engines
Galant AMG looks good!
That AMG Brick Van looks strange:):)
Wow that B55 is insane!
what's the name of the music in the background?
I want the B55 AMG now 😂😂😂
R63 AMG was also something unique
A class.
So, what is the song? I asked this many times.....
The R63 is still the best ❤
aah yes the Infamous fear monger moose test failed car
Ngl I would buy this a class
MB100 interior shows suede Amaretta (like Alcantara) not fabric
A class is so crazy
Can’t beat the amg r class 😂
Amg hammer is awesome
What happen to C36 AMG
Interesting, I thought the galant was turbocharged.
I was gunna watch this then I heard the voice over
does he sound like AI to you? his cadence just sounds a bit extra annunciated to me.
Stay flexin
B55 is my fav
That B class not so bad
B55 is my favourite
Nothing comes close to the R63 AMG extremely rare because no one wanted a 6.3 minivan
The last car is my favourite!
Some BMWs need AMG-tuning.
