Atlanta Area: C55/C32 GTG Feb 20th

Atlanta Area: C55/C32 GTG Feb 20th @ Fellini's Pizza

What: w203 AMG Meet & Greet/Photoshoot

When: Feb 20th @ 3:30pm

Where: Fellini's Pizza
909 Ponce De Leon Avenue Northeast, Atlanta, GA‎ - (404) 873-3088‎



Why: Well it seems we have quite a few C55s and C32s in the Atlanta area so I figured we could get together for some some pizza and car talk then afterward we can figure out some spots for photo shoot opportunities.

Come on out and get to know your local w203 AMG enthusiasts.

I figured Fellini's off of ponce would be a good centralized location for everyone but if we have a general consensus to change the location thats fine by me as well.

Sounds good to me. We should probably discuss where we want to take these pictures.

Also, any other cities that want to join in (whether from GA, SC, NC, TN) you're welcome as well if you're willing to do the drive.

I know where there are a couple of walls with graffiti near lil 5 points that we could take some pictures at. We could also head over to the Varsity for some pics. Any other ideas? Also do either of you have a good camera? I don't, actually I'm really horrible at taking photos even if I did have a good camera.

I'll be there. Love the idea.

Why not open it up to the W211 crowd too? Or at least the SRT6's.

Great. As far as opening it up to other models is fine by me really. I think we were going to try and get the w203s specifically for some pics but I dont mind one bit having some other benzs/srt6s tag along. Feel free to pass the word.

I think the next meet after this one I will promote it as an all AMG Atlanta meet and not just w203. If this turns out to be a nice turn out I could see us potentially making a monthly meet out of it.

I'm all for making an all-AMG later on, but right now I don't think that's the best idea. We really don't know how many people are going to show up, and being the coordinator of a past rather-large meet/show, you don't just pick any place and say "here". So if people want to come hang out, that's fine, but don't advertise it for something it's not.

I say we keep it to AMG W203's this time, and depending on the results of this small gtg, plan for the future. The reason I earlier said other states (mostly ppl near the north GA area) is because we all know that there aren't that many AMG W203's to begin with.

Ive been to car meets at this location with 20+ people before so I really dont see us having any issues with too many people showing up. As far as Im concerned the more the merrier but I guess thats just me.

I don't fear 20, I fear 50+ in a crowded downtown major city. Like I said, its all the same to me, spread it on the boards if you want to

I should be able to make it as well. I'm still a n00b, granted I've researched here and gotten a lot of answers, but I still have so very many questions and "wonder if's" and "has anyone tried's" to ask.

I hope I'm not the only C32 there. Need one that isn't so scratched up for pictures.

Hmm another C55 owner in atl, cool. I'm sort of a noob too, so I won't be able to help you much lol

Biscuit, there HAS to be more C32's around here somewhere....... I know I saw a white CLK55 the other day on I-20 near douglasville, so I know there are more AMG's in this large city

Put an SLK32 down as a tentative party crasher.

Very glad to see the event is being held in town.

SLK32
I recommend posting on the CLK55 & E55 Forums as there are a number of them in town. Or posting on the AMG Private Lounge. Lots of great guys around in the Atlanta Area.

I went to go try and add you to the list but it wont let me edit my original post for some reason. Is there a limit on this forum on how many times you can edit a single post or something?

I also saw a silver SLK55 w/o P30 on Ponce one night, but I was in the Cavalier so there was no chance to mingle

No other C55's or C32's in the ATL/North GA area???

Anyway, anybody thinking about bringing their wives or gf's along? I'll bring mine along if she'll have someone else to talk to (non-car related).

And hopefully it won't snow or ice over next week!

My wife was sorry to miss it but she'll be up with family in Philadelphia next weekend. Probably just going to bring a buddy and his Jeep SRT-8.

So we're still at 5 for sure and 1 maybe. I was hoping for more but oh well.

Oddly enough the only other C32 I've seen was in the cul-de-sac in front of my house going to a party at my neighbors house.
