AMG Driving Academy

Each of us purchasing an AMG GL63 has or will receive from AMG a complimentary invitation to attend a day-long race track driving program with professional instructors teaching performance driving in AMG performance vehicles, including the new AMG GT S, the SL63, the CLS63, the E63, the C63 AMG 507 Edition and the CLA45. There is very little time spent on classroom-type instruction and a whole lot of time driving all of the above cars, very fast. I recently spent a day at the Circuit of the Americas track (the AMG Driving Academy located near Austin, Texas), and I have to say being offered the opportunity to drive an AMG GT S on the Circuit of the Americas Formula One race track as fast as you can accelerate and apex corners is not an experience I will soon forget. I implore each of you not to let pass this opportunity, as it is more fun than you should be allowed to have with your clothes on. You will leave the program a better driver.

Did you have to pay for your wife's day pass?

Worth the price of admission!

Yes, I paid for my wife to take the course

She is a fast driver and had a blast!

We had done a basic course at Monticello the year before and she enjoyed.

AMG course was much better.

If your wife is not afraid to step on the gas, she will have a good time.

A good part of the day is spent honing skills and on emergency maneuvers.

Some of the things you learn could save your life
