Exclamation AMG site preview

Hi all:

After finding out about C32life.com's lack of credibility regarding spyware, I thought of creating a C-class AMG site, but then after some thought, I decided to create a site for all AMG owners. I plan to add as much useful information about AMG vehicles as possible. I've started with some basic features, but over the next few weeks, more features will surface including: member pages to showcase your AMG, a detailed How-To section and more.

Let me know what you guys think so far!

AMGpower.com

Thanks

It looks nice, but you may want to reconsider it because the forums are so similar to the ones here (competition is bad)

Thanks for the replies. Unlike the forums here, I'm focusing on only AMG vehicles.. I use the authentication scheme from the forums to build external features (from the mb) like AMG customized member pages, and more. My goal is not to be competitive with this site, but I think the forums are an important component to building a resource website like amgpower.com.

Thanks for the input!

cntlaw, do you know where I can get a list of these vehicle numbers? I don't understand if they change from model years, or just classes? Thanks!

Great, glad to see all the positive responses. I've pretty much spent my weekend building the site, and will continue improving it daily. I just added a comparison tool:

I will improve the functionality of this feature and add the rest of the AMG vehicles over the next few days!

Just a quick update - I worked on a very basic member area to create a simple car profile. You can add basic info and upload a few pics, but will add more options over the next couple weeks including a ranking system, modification lists, dyno info, and much more.

Here is what the basic profile looks like now:
http://amgpower.com/members_details.php?ID=5

To create yours, just click on the "Members Only" section, login (same login as forums), and click on "my vehicles".

If you notice any bugs, please PM me at c32amg at amgpower.com.

Thanks and enjoy.
