Takes the bus.
Because Hawaii has the lowest speed limits I've ever seen, and the cops there enforce the hell out of them.
Not a natural habitat for the amg species.

Crap!! Sounds like I chose the wrong island for my vacation. We usually do the big island and I probably hold the record for the saddle road, between Kona and Hilo. I'll have to pack the V1 on this trip. I hope it's not as bad in Oahu, as I'll be there for my second week..

E55, Supercharged Z4 (sold)
You're in Maui therefore you have no natural right to complain about anything lol Just messing with you. You should come to East TN. I haven't seen another AMG since I don't know when. Seriously. I saw an S65 about a month ago and that's the only one I remember seeing in the last year.

Take a short hop to Honolulu, there are some AMG for you to see.

Hawaii is a great place, but they are very tough on speeding. Go rent a scooter and ride around, you'll have a lot more fun than the rental car. Enjoy your time in Maui. Aloha!!

Thanks for the tip on the scooter! I'll be at the Rainbow Hilton from 7/7-14. If you are local, we should grab some brews. I'm buying

Thanks for the offer. I'm no longer live in HI, my folks still live in Honolulu.

There are a few AMGs roaming near Waikiki. I usually see them on Ala Moana between the mall and Fort DeRussy. There are also motorcycle troopers that hide around the bends and even on the grass usually near Pearl City so speed cautiously.

Ugh, I'll be on my best behavior. Are you down for a brew or two when I'm there?

Definitely would be down for a brew if HI was still my primary residence. I'm mostly in San Francisco and Chicago these days with a few trips to HI to upkeep the wife's place.
