    The Managing Director, Mercedes-Benz Cars, Mr Horst von Sanden said “ We got a fantastic response to our bright orange C63 AMG known as “Jaffa” last year at AIMS. Whilst the ‘night orange’ smart fortwo has significantly less power than the “Jaffa” it has 100% of its street presence. It was a no brainer for us to order fifteen for Australia. It is truly a sibling of “Jaffa” we call it ‘Jaffette’ “
