- AMG is known for tuning and modifying Mercedes Benz cars to insane levels. From the AMG Red Pig all the way up to the AMG Mercedes concept one that debuted last year, AMG is one of the most iconic names in all of motorsport. They invented the performance luxury car and continue to push the limits of what daily driven mean with their ridiculous Mercedes burnout machines.

And BRABUS is like "this AMG is not AMG enough"
shashank Reddy Or maybe something like this:
AMG: We make badass Mercs!
BRABUS: Aww that's cute.
AMG are now the performance division of Mercedes Benz.
BRABUS however, remains independent as it has been fron day 1.
AMG is great in engines. Bra-Bus are great in interior and exterior as well.
AMG great with engines.
Brabus? They crank the shit up to 14!
BRABUS turn the 500hp AMG engine into a 800hp planet shaking fire breathing monster... with leather seats and a luxury interior haha
As an AMG fan since a kid in the 80’s to now an AMG owner, I was impressed by this non conventional presentation. It had all the tricks to keep short attention span types in check, while delivering an accurate timeline. Well done guys 👍 it’s also nice to see people in the comment section who have learned something about AMG, even if as simple as what the letters “AMG” stand for.
Are you still a fan of the AMG, do you like their engineering progress
I love the AMG Smart.
The sad thing about AMGs is that they are so much on the edge, you basically have to change motor oil (and filters the whole shit) every 6 months, and all the other oils like differential oil and gear oil need to get changed more often than regular cars, too. They need way more extra love and maintenance than regular cars. A bit like a race car. Forgetting an oil change can end an AMG motor. People who buy these used AMG sleepers, treat them like a normal stationwagon destroying the car in under a year of time...
Thanks a lot Donut Media, you made me late for work... AGAIN!
Just get AMG to build you an engine. You'll never be late again
😂😂😂😂

A² +M² + G² = Formula for destroying tires is epic smoking display!
Welcome To The Madness BEST COMMENT EVER! I died laughing, this is my ghost typing
I shot the e55 burnout video on there. there is a really good video on my channel of my friends e63 AMG shredding tires too. he upgraded to the e63 and its even better !
We must honor the engineers(mathematicians) that bring us torque to destroy tires!
F2 Garage I’ll definitely check it out
Welcome To The Madness absolutely right, in order to truly know how to improve a cars performance, you first need to understand the math
It's a true honor to witness a hand-built AMG engine which I happened to seen a couple of since I work at a tire shop
I honestly had no knowledge of AMG, I always ignorantly thought it was just Mercedes' "M" series, this was an incredibly informative video. Thanks guys.
i'm actually a ferrari fanboy but it was actually really interesting learning the history behind the amg brand, didn't realize they were always handbuilt and started in a home garage
And they were amazing in the 80s. You could buy any Mercedes and get it beefed up by AMG, fuckin bonkers
Do an up to speed on Doug demuro

So AMG stands for Aufrecht Melcher Grossaspach? Huh.
Germans... What more do you want to hear
Actually AMG stands für Affalterbacher (German town) Motoren (engine) Gesellschaft (Company)
No the video is right, look it up
pascal wahlig look it up dummy your wrong
I legit taught it meant Ah-Ma-God
Well apparently there's goes the only thing that made me think that Germans could be fun
Ah yes...the CLK GTR...the race car that wanted to be a plane.
it didnt let its dreams be dreams!
That was a CLR not a CLK GTR
Satwik Basu nigga it's the *CLK GTR*
KiCcAsS IdiOT your username says a lot about you😂😂😂. Anyway, the crash happened in the '99 Le Mans where mercs were running the CLR GT1s not CLK GTRs. A bit of research helps a lot.
Satwik Basu ookay, i just thought the car that flew in 1999 le mans was a clk gtr
Video moment 8:15 - 8:35 is why I keep coming back for more content...
Sad thing is that's also how he changes the radio & pumps gas.

When I was about 14 or 15 my dad and I went to a local dealership to look at a car. It was something he had been wanting for a while.
I knew a decent bit about cars at this point, but nothing about AMG. The car my dad went to look at was a 2003 CLK55 AMG Coupe.
To me it just looked like a regular Mercedes with nicer wheels and such. He started it up, and it came to life with a howl which slightly startled me.
He and I then went for a test drive on an old country road and there was a straightaway. My dad floored it at about 45 mph and I was slammed into the seat and held with incredible force as the car lurched forward with ferocity.
That was my first experience in a fast car, and I loved it. After that I became a huge fan of AMG, although to this day I haven't owned one.
Perhaps in the future, but I have at least had the privilege of owning 2 Corvettes and a Charger. If I could pick any AMG though, it would be an SL65 AMG Black Series.
I want an AMG so fucking bad. This series is amazing. Informative and hilarious.
BRABUS video and ALPINA video please!
Yes!!!
And after a few videos...
Your wish has been granted.
Yeah!
I see brabus but no alpina??
even we in Swizerland cant afford brabus or alpinas
Absolutely loved this episode. Up To Speed is the highlight of my week, always look forward to see it when I’m done at work. Keep up the great work Donut crew & I’d love to see an episode on the Jaguar F-Type 👌🏻
I can't be the only one watching it for five time
Ur not
Yes you are
Zopi bg im obsessed with amgs.....so yes
FIFTH time
Nope
well... my lab report can wait
You and me both haha
This is quite literally THE BEST informative video I have ever seen in ALL respects!!
one of my favourite experiences in my life was going to the Mercedes Benz factory in Stuttgart. My godparents parents had worked there a long time ago, and used that to get us on a 'special' tour. The whole area is spectacular, and watching the cars get made was amazing. The place is so big that they have their own hospital and fire department
Whoever edited this deserves a raise. Made me laugh so many times
Mitsubishi Galant AMG is so dope
Jerrypintoswe what?
when the mitsubishi galant had the motor tuned by amg
ded it does exist only 200 ever made
Why?
I saw one at the manila international auto show last year but I'm not sure if it's a replica or not
fr the best car channel out there
Hey thanks!
Hmm, i think it's tied with Hoonigan. Both are equally awesome in their own ways.
You should do BRABUS next
Yesssss
We need it
Indeed we need it.
My exact thought
Yes please
Missed the W201, Baby Hammer of 1989-1991. 190E+ 3.2, a 2.5L bored and destroked inline 6, 231-271hp, depending on who you might beileve. aka EVo II. Well done covering the Cosworth "pre-AMG" variants.
It gives me goose bumps whenever I listen to Daimler-Benz's history! They gave us the car and now they're giving us the best cars! Jawohl!!!
These should be posted on Friday's.. its that good.
Much respect for AMG
AMG is badass. My dad had an S55 AMG and that was a 500 hp rocket sleeper. Too bad it was totaled by a drunk guy when it was parked.
Andrew Mayer is it fixable ?
Kelly Dunois it was sold to some guy who managed to fix the thing. No fuckin clue how he did because there was serious frame damage in the front. It was for sale a few weeks ago.
Andrew Mayer its a Mercedes so it shouldnt be difficult to find spare parts , are you guys from europe as well ?
Omg I feel you. My Mazda rx8 got hit back in November rip
Rest In Pieces Mercedes
This is the best and complete history of any car in the all trajectory of donuts media. Thanks to put mercedes benz on the top like always the best car ever . Cheers from Paraguay😎😎😎
Nice side story about 300 SEL 6.8 Red Pig, after the race they sold the car to French aerospace company (I think it was Matra) where they used it as test carriage for aircraft landing gear, they hacked the back session and trashed the car. As you guess it the car was scrapped and presumably lost forever. AMG did eventually make a replica of it few years back.
Ifan Ramadhana TYPICAL french ppl
There is only original 6.3 AMG in museum in Finland.
Hiding his DBZ hair I see
CROblazer420 this show makes Thursday an event, science garage is cool too.
E55 AMG FTW!

My friend
Any chance doing a episode on Quattro?
good one...i was just thinking I'd like to see one on the Audi RS series...particularly RS4 for me lol
Lmao I just was about to comment this
Or maybe Type R
They did a Type R video: ua-cam.com/video/pom34VqPV7Y/v-deo.html
That's the Civic Type R
The Fastest Mercedes Benz Ever Made
1. Mercedes Benz CLK GTR AMG 400+KM/H
2. Mercedes Benz MC LAREN SLR AMG 340+KM/H
3. Mercedes Benz SLS AMG 310+KM/H
4. Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG 310+KM/H
5. Mercedes Benz GT-R AMG 300+KM/H
The McLaren SLR isn't branded as an AMG. It shares AMG's parts bin, but officially it's a Mercedes-McLaren effort.
Um its about acceleration not top speed
Fist time watching this channel and I bro you are having. I saw AMG and clicked so fast but if I had a teacher like u in school I would be the next Einstein
What if he showed up at your school, would your mind be BLOWN!! 🤯🤯

One Man On Fire I want to do the same, I found a crossworth and I was gonna get an evo 2 kit for it. They are so beautiful😍
Finally!!!! One on AMGs, They listened!!!! the world is good again...
Fun fact:mercedes once made an diesel amg called the c30 cdi in the w203 c class it was made from 1999 to 2004 only sold in europe they used an 5 cylinder 2.7cdi and tuned it to be an 3.0cdi making 231 hp it was hand built. Only diesel amg ever made they are very rare.

Hi donut, AMG also tuned the vito van. I think thats the crasiest one haha
They're starting to act like Nissan .
*NISMO EVERYWHEREEEEEE* !!!

lucKYluc what is it called?
lucKYluc Dude look up for the r class AMG , that is some crazy shit
markotine yea the vito van is slower aswel, but the vito looks more like a van, which is awsome
This video made my respect and interest in AMG sky-rocket.
Their sedans are so fuckin badass. The C63 amg is my dream car and I believe it's rather attainable
I love the way he explains everything 👍
Please make a Cosworth video!
DON'T LISTEN TO HIM! Do nismo
What about the C63 AMG Black Edition??? Crazy burnout-machine!!!
Nick Govola the noise it makes , its ludicris :D
Hahah I know!! My old roommate had one and I used to look out the window when he would cold-start it and scare anyone who was within 100 feet lol.
Nick Govola it will scared the piss out of any Ferrari owners
Mmm.. I love that car. Listening to it gives me eargasms.
Oh yes...
AMG has too much of history to be put in a single video.
Handbuilt and signed... Ive never been a Mercedes or AMG fan, but i cannot deny the art and craftsmanship after knwoing the story...
Now.
I want one.
8:28 lmao 😂 I’m dead
yeah where tf he find that shi haha
Shame the crazy SL73 didn't get mentioned, it deserves to be known.
I almost forgot about the SL73 (R129) - 7.3L V12. It was not a huge success since only 85 were made if I remember correctly.
8:17 Michael Kübler, the legendary engine builder for AMG! 💥🤘
This guy is a perfect example of "Being the best at what you do!" Even non-car guys are gonna enjoy this vid😂😂

This video gave me goosebumps loved it!!
I Had the privilege to work for a private own Mercedes-Benz franchise I was flown around the nation for MB technical training earned Mercedes-Benz master technician title, anyways the Mercedes-Benz car culture is beautiful amazing I can’t even explain is so much more than luxury vehicles!!! Mercedes-Benz The Pioneers The originators . There is simply no driving experience like a Mercedes-Benz AMG. Once you go AMG you buy another one. MB AMG forever.
AMG = all money gone

And its crazy
Sadly New amg is less „amg” every year
A45, A53 etc
Krzysztof Dolecki cls53, looks like potato
Krzysztof Dolecki at 9:03 he explains that properly that AMG takes a normal Mercedes and just builds a performance version of it. And since that really is the case those are performance models of a base Mercedes car meaning they've stayed true to their philosophy
The "Hammer" was based on the W124 body 300E, not the 300 SE (which is the short-wheelbase S-class W126).
