63's at East Coast AMGFEST
I just got back from the East Coast AMGFEST at Mercedes Benz USA Headquarters in Montvale, NJ. Rob Allen from AMG USA and Noah Yanowitz an Engineer at MBUSA were there to host this all day event. My hats off to them for putting on a great show and the catered lunch was a real treat. They had 4 brand new 2007 AMG's with the new 6.3liter motors. A E63,CLS63,ML63 and the R63. Here's some pic's from todays event.

I overheard today that they cancelled it due to rain. You may want to PM Pete to confirm.

I would PM Pete but I think he's too drunk.
Doesn't matter since I'm stuck in Michigan anyway.

The parking lot at MBUSA's headquarters is pure car ****. I came across this a brand new CL550. I believe this car isn't even available yet.

Weather.com says light rain. I don't think light rain wouldbe enough to cancel an autox, besides it's more fun.

If so I would love to see someone post some pics.

, with the female bug sliding down the humid window ("Awww yeaaahh! Deeeeeepa!!")I was lmao when I first saw that!
Still waiting to see two peugeots mating with each other doggystyle! And it the end it should be, "Attention, species multiplies quickly!" to indicate that the car should be seen very often on the streets...

I saw New CL in person and took similar pics. I was skeptical as well but you HAVE to see it in person to appreciate it. PICs dont do it justice, that car is one hot mama, wait til you see the CL63 amg.
