The German powerhouse is reported to have seen a tune-up recently to ensure everything is running fine; you would also find new batteries in place to rid of any electrical gremlins. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels and ensures tail-happy motoring through a 5-speed 5G-TRONIC automatic transmission.
