This is not true. Mercedes invented the formula that BMW is now using. And their enthusiast community was equally split.
Most of Mercedes’ 43 and 53 cars are not “real” AMG cars. And they are covered in AMG badges.
C43 = m340i
C63 = M3
Ask any c63 owner if they think the c43 is a real AMG or ask the same question to a e63 owner about the e53. It would look a lot like this conversation.
