Doug D bought a very clean looking RS2. He lives in San Diego noway so maybe I will run into it.

Too bad it is so ugly compared to the Audi. At least I dont have to decide between the two.

I would not call the MB ugly, but the Audi is certainly better-looking.

The front end of the new one is so bulbous. Just ran into this one this morning, previous gen?, and front looked great

I don’t disagree that the last gen looked better. I personally feel MB sucks at not differentiating the real AMG cars enough. That wagon should have more flared arches, etc.
