These threads are always funny. Same exact conversation, every year.

Either way, seems both companies are happy about their collaboration. 10 years is a long time, so obviously something is working.

^^^ 10 years is 3 times longer together than most marriages much less than business arrangements last these days... and both halves like the boat's created (and the $$$ from the unquestionable attention to the brands)

Just to be clear, the product of their first collaboration was released at the 2010 Miami International. So while the upcoming boat will be the tenth collaborative effort between Cigarette and Mercedes-AMG, this will be the seventh year. In 2016 and another year (and I can't recall it at the moment) they did two boats.

If it were to be powered by AMG then it would really be something. Sorry, just rings false to me.

Cause it brings awareness to a brand at a big event on both side.

But I see your side...screw that whole marketing thing....just a stupid and dumb idea.

I might be able to get a better grasp if there was reciprocation on the AMG side but I've never seen anything Cigarette from AMG. But I also think the Harley Davidson Ford trucks were goofy too.
