Default Best Preferred Spark plug for AMG

What is the preferred spark plug for a 5.5l AMG?
I have a 2000 ML55 AMG and the dealer is steering me towards the factory issued plugs. Other have suggested that the Bosch Platinum plug, albeit a great plug, isn't suggested for the AMG units.
Thanks for any advice and insight into this 'issue'.

Use OE plugs.
Think they might be Beru but not sure. Remove one and the brand will be on it.
Be advised.
Aftermarket plugs by the same manufacturer MAY NOT be the same as OE plugs unless the OE supplier categorically confirms that they are.
Little differences in design and characteristics (especially on higher powered engines) can make a very big and costly difference!!
