The Pink Lady…
When men think of pink cars, the first thing that comes to mind is BARBIE. Okay, I’ll admit it—that’s a total cliché—but when I got Susie Stoddart’s current DTM AMG-Mercedes on my desk, my first reaction was: Barbie car! (That’s why I immediately nicknamed it PINK LADY.)

But, after getting over that initial eye-searing shock and taking a deep breath: This car has something special!

Compared to the endless silver or black versions, the Persson Motorsport Team’s current car is definitely a real visual treat for the Carrera racetrack. Since 2008, the cute Scottish girl (yeah, yeah, I know—another cliché) has been racing in the 2007 AMG Mercedes C-Class. So far, she hasn’t been as successful as the former British karting champion had hoped, but that could still change. In any case, she’s driving one of the most eye-catching cars in the field—the TV-Spielfilm Mercedes—

Carrera and she’s done an outstanding job with it. There’s nothing to complain about in terms of looks—the TV-Spielfilm magazine cover serving as a water deflector on the roof is a nice touch. Technically, the car also has a lot to offer: Although the Benz still has the “old” suspension, it was one of the best cars on the track back then and can easily keep up with today’s cars. Reason: wide axles/tires, low center of gravity—the optimal combination. The car literally sticks to the track, takes corners cleanly and smoothly, and does so with very lively acceleration.

A race car that leaves nothing to be desired. Have fun with it!
