I drove a the A35 AMG thinking it might be a good alternative to another BMW. That little Mercedes is blast to drive, closer in character to something like a Golf R or WRX than a C-class. It is lethargic at low RPMs but the power at higher RPMs is manageable. I could enter a roundabout fast and floor it coming out without overwhelming the tires.
After some contemplation I decided the character is not what I want for a daily driver. The high lease price, the salesman's repeated reference to the car as the "entry level AMG", and the cheap feeling interior (despite some very cool technology) all turned me off.
