Yeah, that's a no for me Dawg.
While AMGs are very affordable on the used market, you are still maintaining a $100k-$200k vehicle. Case in point, look at any of the 65 varients, you're looking around $5k for a brake job despite picking up a used one for $30k. You cannot cut the cost by buying shite quality parts at Auto one, they are not available.

For some AMG's, they are not repairable at all. The V12 and older V8 cars are basically throw-away cars, which is why they are so cheap. Only chance of getting parts are from sellers that have stripped them off of another car and the prices are astronomical. Cars worth more in parts than they are in good running condition...

Closer to 3k; assuming you are paying an independent shop
