LA Auto Show

Hey guys i just got back from the LA Auto show and wanted to let you see some pretty cool photos and a couple from the MB lounge which you can just get into if you have an invitation, or flash your key, i didn't have mine since i valeted, i showed them my AMG owners card. A couple of the pics are from the Brabus section, and the rest are just some pics of some cool cars. I hope you enjoy, and i look forward to seeing some of you at some of the meets that are coming up...

So I can go to the mercedes lounge, flash my keys and they will let me in? Where did you get an AMG owners card? I don't remember that. Will flashing the key work at brabus too? I want to check out their Ev12 if they have it or any W211 that they have there.

well i was sent a leather case in the mail enclosed with it they (MB) gave me a AMG owners card, very simple looking and has the vin on the back, not sure of it's purpose, as for Brabus, i think you might be able to, when i went it was just so freaking busy i couldn't try. I think if you talk to the reps there, they might let you in, i think having the key handy would be a good idea. The lounge is in the MB section, best way to describe is, it's behind the info area, ask anyone there and they will let you know where it is. In the lounge just food and drinks, drinks in my case. It's just a place to take a load off, and sit back and enjoy. It's very quite back there too. Lastly yes i do believe that is the 6.1 Brabus.... that whole section is just breath taking... Hope i answered all questions, i hope you enjoy the show...

yup they will let you in with the key. Just flash it. Same applies to bmw's lounge. Mercedes lounge has more to eat. Bmw lounge only has pretzels. If you flash your key at brabus they should let you in as well. Simply tell them which behcile you own and say you want to get a closer look at it and a brochure and that should do it.
