2010 C63 AMG
VA/MD/DC AMG Meet and Greet

There was some interest expressed by a few members in another thread for a DC area meet and greet. Nothing huge or fancy, just a chance to get together before the snow and cold arrive. Anyone interested? Seems date is trickier than location, so let's settle on a date first. I am working a lot of weekends in November, so I thought one of the following days, probably sometime in the morning:

Saturday, 10/23
Saturday, 10/30
Sunday, 10/31
Saturday, 11/13
Sunday, 11/14

I could post it as a poll, but I think we can just come to some sort of a decision in this thread.

Nov 13 and 14 are out for me, too close to my Nov 11 anniversary. The other days are fine with me.

how wrong would it be to ask you to bring the GT500 instead of the C63?

I expressed interest in this in the other thread, however, looks like this may be turning into a C63 GTG?! I did take note that the thread title is simply "AMG Meet and Greet". If that's the case, I am definitely interested.

Can most likely do the morning of 10/30 (Halloween weekend AMG run?) or possibly the mornings of 11/13 or 11/14, provided I am not out of town.

Let me know.

So how about getting breakfast/lunch somewhere prior to the GTG? We could do something just outside of DC Bethesda comes to mind. Or how about somewhere in DC with good parking by Union Station, lots of parking earlier in the morning, prior to the tourists invading.

A fitting location would probably be EuroMotorcars of Bethesda, it is in fact a AMG Performance Center.

haters crazy
Until a date is finalized maybe a few people can go to the cars and coffee in great falls on sat mornings. I believe October is the last month but there are some amazing cars. Downside is it is extremely early in the morning (7am - 9am)

Have been wanting to make it to this all Summer but have been either, A) out of town, or B) too lazy to wake up that early. Looks amazing. A coworker who owns a CLK63 BS has encouraged me to go, as he is a frequent visitor. His car usually gets parked in one the 'elite' parking spots, you have to get there very early to park there (and if you are smart you won't park in one of those spots unless you have an exotic).

Check out the pictures from this guy's flickr account, you won't believe the kind of cars there until you see the pictures. http://www.flickr.com/groups/1534716@N22/

Can't do it this weekend, as I'm headed to Pittsburgh for my Uncle's 100th Birthday.
But next weekend, would be fine. As long as theirs no Formula 1 Race going on.

I'm gonna talk to Euro Motor Cars in Bethesda. Seems like a decent central location for most. I wouldn't really be in favor of going in to DC.

My intention was for any AMG, so certainly you're welcome.

Baby Gorilla,

I thought that everyone knew that, Euromotorcars of Bethesda was an AMG Performance Center. Talked to Brian Butler, he was my salesman to see what he can do for us, 301-215-5447. You can also get your car washed their on Saturday mornings.

Good to know. Would you prefer to talk to him then? Doesn't make a difference to me either way. I'm happy to do it, but I'm also happy to defer to you, since you already kind of know the guy.

Baby Gorilla,

I'm just throwing this out there, since it's on the web.
But this brings up another interesting question, that some may ask.
"Is this just limited to AMG's?"
I say "Yes" !!!!!

Yeah, I agree. I mean, if there are future meetings, we could definitely open it up to other models, makes, etc., but for this first one, let's see how it goes with just AMGs.
