A one-time build ordered by the Pragma Group AG, it was officially disapproved by Mercedes as a "mechanical abomination." This dismissal birthed its internal nickname: the Frankenstein Machine.

Uncle Tae-shik:
(1997 Porsche 911 Turbo)
The last air-cooled legend — raw and relentless.
Engine: 3.6 L M64/60 air-cooled twin-turbo SOHC H6
Output: 402 hp
Transmission: 6-speed manual (G50/52)
Brakes: Cross-drilled ventilated discs
Massive for their era, to rein in the turbocharged power.
Body style: 2-door coupé
Color: Arena Red
A car he's owned for decades. It's not just a car, it's a time capsule. He knows every rattle and roar from the air-cooled engine. It's raw, unforgiving, and he loves it for that.
...
(2019 Mercedes-Benz AMG E 63 S 4MATIC+)
One of AMG's ultimate supersaloons, a masterclass in uncompromised duality.
Engine: 4.0 L M177 twin-turbo V8
Output: 604 hp
Transmission: 9-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT automatic (9G-Tronic)
Brakes: Perforated & ventilated composite discs
Body style: 4-door saloon
Color: Verde Silver Metallic
His 'sensible' car for when he needs four doors and all-weather capability, but he refused to compromise on power. It's the tool of a professional who demands efficiency and brutal performance in one package.

Joel Kornberg:
(2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupé Black Series)
A rare gem in the AMG legacy—the last of the naturally aspirated legends.
Engine: 6.2 L M159 naturally aspirated V8
Output: 622 hp
Transmission: 7-speed dual-clutch AMG SpeedShift DCT
Brakes: Carbon-ceramic discs
Body style: 2-door coupé
Color: Black Metallic
Less of a daily driver and more of a moving piece of art in his collection. Acquired more for its appreciating value and engineering significance than for practicality. The gullwing doors are pure theater.
