      Porsche Design does this same sort of thing to great success. Will the formula work for AMG? Mercedes revealed official AMG branded accessories such as luggage, shirts, die-cast car models, and jackets. These accessories are made by manufacturers such as Kyosho and and AutoArt for Mercedes. Maybe some AMG luggage is the perfect thing to pair with your new SLS AMG?

        Nice. I used to have Porsche luggage (was a gift at christmas a few years back) but my sister decided to borrow it to go on vacation once, and it all got 'lost' by the airline (read: some ground crew stole it) and my sister was too lazy to ever follow up on the claim and get reimbursed.

        I was super super pissed because that stuff was NOT cheap and I couldnt afford to go out and buy new ones.

        Actually, AMG had shirts, t-shirts, jackets, and hats available for at least 3-years, but for some reason they haven't aggressively advertised them. It's good to see they're expanding the lineup. I wish they would offer some larger sizes though.

        what is considered expensive? I mean, the BMW polos are, what, $60? that's about standard for say a lacoste polo...but if it is like $100+ that is pretty ridiculous.

        edit: a small polo is $70

        prices: http://accessories.mbusa.com/Lifestyle+Accessories/AMG/

        ballpoint pen? $119

        it does look sick though....

        The hat is great.
        I have two of these, one for dirty work like yard work, etc and the other one is form the showered head.
        I got these hats last year when I bought my car--I also have the grey and black shirt with the stripes on the side and a AMG pin for coat lapel.
        I don't think this is the new stuff they're selling, it's been out a little while.
        I was pumped that they may have new higher end stuff coming out.
