AMG Private Lounge

Guys,

Is access to the AMG private lounge limited to only owners in North America?

Thanks

I appreciate the information! Where do I email my VIN number, and how do I access the forum?

Thanks,

Tim

Frankly I don't see the point in restricting access to North American owners only. I can't think of anything I've seen on the website that'd be problematic for a European or Asian owner to see.

Have you enter the last 7 digit of your VIN, not the full no.?

You must be missing some digits in the end, as the 7’th digit is a letter, in your case “F”!
Try this link to check your VIN:
