Apparently, there's a Mercedes-Benz AMG fanatic in the Netherlands who is pretty much obsessed with AMGs that are specced in a very individualized way.
In short, he's all about matte vinyl wraps and acid green brake calipers. Beside the matte grey Mercedes -Benz A 45 AMG featured here, which is his latest AMG toy, he also owns a couple of heavyweight V12 ones in the shape of an S 65 AMG W221 and a very rare G 65 AMG.

The A 45 AMG's engine has but a third of each of his other car's cylinders, but the 360 hp and 450 Nm (332 lb ft) of torque are more than enough to give the car more than enough punch.

As a matter of fact, the tiny – compared with the S 65 and the G 65 – A 45 AMG is situated in the middle of the two when it comes to acceleration.

Helped by a 4Matic all-wheel drive system, the A 45 can hit 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.6 seconds if the Launch Control function of the seven-speed double clutch transmission is used.
