Compared to the 2010 S-Class, the AMG model sports a more aggressive front fascia with a deeper chin spoiler, larger air inlets and additional gills. Shaplier side sills and a sculpted rear valance round out the rest of the noticeable changes, along with a set of quad oval exhaust tips and a prominent AMG badge on the decklid. Unfortunately, there are no interior shots to see if the new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/12/11/mercedes-benz-readies-splitview-monitor-for-s-class/">SPLITVIEW</a> system will make it into the sportiest of big Benzes.<br /><br />While the new S-Class might be shown at the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/GenevaMotorShow/">Geneva Motor Show</a>, it won't arrive in showrooms until mid-2009 as a 2010 model. And there's no word on how much longer we'll have to wait to get an official glimpse of the AMG-fettled model.<br /><br />[Source: <a href="http://www.motorauthority.com/spy-shots-mercedes-benz-s-class-amg-facelift.html">MotorAutho rity</a>]<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/10/spy-shots-mercedes-s-class-amg-spotted/">Spy Shots: Mercedes S-Class AMG spotted</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Tue, 10 Feb 2009 18:32:00 EST.
