MERCEDES BENZhas today given fans a sneaky look at what their 2013-specification E-Class AMGroad-going weapon will look like – and it looks tough.

It’s a strongvisual clue as to what the privately-entered Erebus Motorsport E-Class AMG will look like when itis unveiled by the outfit soon, the race car expected to take strong visualclues from the road-going weapon when it is shown off for the first time.

The revised E-Classfeatures a heavily revised front end treatment plus a more aggressive aero kit.

We’d suggestthat if V8 Supercars fans with imagination add in a rear wing, the control 18”V8 Supercar wheels and Dunlop slick tyres, they will be a long way to picturingwhat the race-specification version will look like..
