I got an invitation from my sales rep. at the dealer and MB Canada sent me an email which contains a password. I suggest you ask your sales rep. about this event. Normally only a sales rep. who sold a lot of AMG cars can put 5 names on the list.
Yes, we get to drive all the AMG cars from C 63 to SLS AMG

Not really AMG. They did have several to drive. They gave us a nice performance driving book that the MB Driving Academy put together. You get to keep your balaclava that has the Mercedes Benz Driving Academy monogram. The dealer gave us a decent MB jacket and a few brochures on MB models and one for the driving academy itself. They also gave us a successful completion Diploma and a USB Drive that looks like a MB Key with lots of pictures that they took . It is a well run program and we all had a lot of fun and learned some things as well. They have a very good feedback program. All in all a fun and worthwhile day at a great track.
The AMG performance tour should be a great opportunity to try out all the AMG product and Circuit Mont Tremblant is a great venue to do it at.

The S63 with 5.5 TT is not even in Canadian showroom so I doubt it will be at the event. But I guess I'll find out on that date :p

Hey Swiftler, thanks for the heads up. I called my dealer yesterday morning and they booked mt brother and I for Sunday arrival and drive Monday,....there is also another MBworld member from Ottawa booking for Monday (blackc230benzo) who has a 2010 C63 P31, I will also inform another MBworld member from Ottawa and hopefully have a full crew. I did this same tour in Dallas in Nov 08 and we had 18 AMG vehicles for the full day and it was insane, they wined and dined us and put us up in 5star hotels, it was really well done, I just cant wait to throw that SLS around!!

The MB Driving Academy is more of a performance driving event put on by MB rather than an AMG event. We had 12 people / 12 cars.
The list of cars as I remember:
B200 Turbo
C300
c350
C63 AMG
C63 AMG
E350 4Matic
E63 AMG Sedan
E550 Coupe
SLK350
SLK55 AMG
CLS63 AMG
ML350 BlueTEC 4Matic
Sorry no 5.5TT yet. I am not certain what cars they will have for the AMG Event but a SLS for sure. They have room for 24 people / 12 cars.

Thanks Swiftler. We all appreciate the updates. Hope I can get in. The Toronto market seems to have filled their quota already.

You can talk to Eva Cheng about this matter, she's the one in charge of this event. Number sent to your PM. BTW, her voice is sexy...
