mercedes benz amg?
what does AMG stand for?
Aufrecht Melcher Großaspach- it's German. AMG used to actually be an independent company started by former Mercedes employees, then Mercedes bought AMG and used it to tune their cars. Kind of irony if you ask me.

If Michael was in the Ferrari this year would Mclaren even be in contention for the championship?
mclaren has had an amazing year. But in my opinion Ferrari has 2 mediocre drivers. Massa is ok. Raikonnen is a hack who couldnt win in champ car.
Michael's influence on the team canot be underestimated. Poor reliability? Michael says "Let's improve the reliability" and the team would have worked even harder than they have this year.
Michael also would have been the clear Number 1, with preferential strategies and therefore more wins and points.
His ability to develop the car through his feedback to the engineers is sorely missed at Maranello this year.
I'm not sure if having Michael alone would enable ferrari to win this year, but surely, it would be very close!

I own a 2000 Cadillac Escalade…what are some easy ways to enhance the performance?
Should I put in Bosch plugs and wires, chips, programmers, etc. I would also like to make the lights high density and not just that sad ass blue crap. I thought about getting some dark purple bulbs to enhance the vision of the road; alla new Infinity sports car or something.
I don't mean to mess up a Cadillac…I just want things to flow better and perform with ease. Just a few small upgrades won't hurt; plus I'm not trying to junk up my SUV.
You can make it faster, but come on it's a Cadillac. You going to really mess up a great SUV. I would enhance the style if you have to, but not so much that you would take a Cadillac ride and make it feel like a Tahoe. Stay with the over size breaks, and a nice set of wheels (not 26" with rubber bands).

what engine parts effect the fuel milage of a high performance car?
i know a camshaft can effect gas mileage but what other parts contribute to fuel milage?
what every one else answered is true but the most important thing was left out and that is the o2 sensor or sensors, if your o2 sensor is bad you will get very crappy fuel mileage.

If you were a MLB star, would you drive anycar but the best cars in the world? Like a Ferrari or Lamborghini?
Or would you be fine with driving a camry or accord to the ballpark or as your regular car?
I would buy an Escalade with custom rims. But with my average bellow the Mendoza Line, my power less than Eckstein, and my glove has more errors than Ryan Braun( the batter not the pitcher). I barely pay off my lease in a 96 Honda Civic.

How can I get a tour of the Ferrari factory?
I am traveling to Italy in May with my wife and two young sons – my eldest son is car fanatic, especially Ferraris, and I'd like to bring him around the factory. I can only find details of the museum online, not the factory. Someone told me you have to own a ferrari to get a tour (I don't!), any help would be appreciated.
if you want to visit the factory at maranello and see all the ferraris made, you will need to join the Scuderia Ferrari Club. Go to: http://www.community.ferrariworld.com/Community/app?language=en
register as a Y&F SFC member. However, it comes at a cost of 40euros. But you get more with that like a discounts on apparel and stuff, access to web media, video games, etc.
***YOU DO NOT NEED TO OWN A FERRARI (trust me)***
BEFORE YOU DO: it is best to contact the ferrari factory and ask if they do onsite tours which they might. You can find their phone number on their website.
