Anyone received a survey invitation from AMG Private Lounge?

Just did it.... kind of curious as all of the questions surrounding electronic gadgets to be put in the car.... just like the GT-R. G-force, racing line, shift point, transmission oil temp, brake temp, 1/4 mile, 0-60, braking point, etc. etc. etc.

Kind of exciting... is this for the next wave of AMG? Hopefully

Already took it, very interesting, rating how we feel each electronic gadget is to us....

Next thing you know, the entire dash shows up on a video monitor like the GT-R's data shows up.

All I could think of during the survey is how "out of touch" AMG must be.
Everything on their list could be put in the car for less than $400.
I thought it, sad.

To me it looks like the plan on integrating most of the features on the poll and that the poll is being used to determine how to set up the menu systems/displays for it all. I could be wrong be wrong or I could be right.

True, you are most likely right, I think since my I-Phone can do 96% of what they were asking about, they should just make their new display/command user programmable. I wish MB/AMG the best, but the opinion/questionnaire was a little elementary. Hey integrating 3-400 dollar tech gadget that requires a mass email poll is silly.

But some of us have silly electronic integration on the brain.
