Trust me, it was. I could be persuaded to trade my beloved E63 in for one.

I have been coordinating this event for months, and it took a lot of coordination, from many peoplet to pull this event off. Not to mention my own personal time. Steve (AMG Trainer) took the time to drive down, and to present us with a 2012 CLS 63 AMG to marvel over. Only to have so little people show up. Frankly, I was disappointed. 
But nevertheless, we discussed the new car in detail, and the inter-workings of the new 5.5 liter Bi-Turbo engine. He discussed all the technical aspects of the engine. The stop/start feature, which the car shuts down the engine when you come to a complete stop, then in the instance you touch the gas the car engine is restarted and your off. This helps safe on gas. Blind spot assist, lane keeping assist where the car vibrates the steering wheel to alert you, that your drifting over the line. The car is better looking car in person, then from photos. The interior is nice, rear seat head room is better than I expected. The engine sounds great, and the exhaust note isn't a deep as say the C63 or the SLS. Slightly different but, you know that there are some serious ponies under that hood, and there is "0" turbo lag with the torbo mounted directly to the exhaust manifold.
