truth is my wife actually tells me to wait for the gs lease to end and then get my e63s or cls63s or s63s. they are monsters and ridiculous, but they are no sports car. i kind of prefer having a regular daily driver and then something i can have fun with for the weekends.

Yes, that’s an awesome site for a resort, I did not even know it existed before. Just found out the resort was bought and refurbished last year by an auto group of dealerships and re-opened. No wonder they use it to host these events. It is open to the public too.

really annoying having to go back to the first page and keep scrolling through pics i've already seen to see what's new - i know, first world problem. 
anyway, what car did you enjoy driving the most and why?

my experience is that i don't want a one size trying to fit all vehicle. for me if it's to be fun it should be lighter, smaller, low cog, doesn't need ludicrous hp, etc.
if my work continues to keep me this busy maybe i don't even get to think much!

trying to follow this... e/cls/s are all sedans and not sports cars but are you saying because they are more practical than a sports car you could have one of those as a daily as well as have fun on the weekend?

because it's easier to pay for or you won't think about doing it because you have no time?

my work and family has totally kept me away from thinking about cars for the past couple of years

Attached a few more pictures, including some over head aerial pics of the cars going around the track they took

They actually had a media day for this AMG tour before the customers, so one of the YouTube reviewers who attended the media day posted up a video ...

Of course I enjoy the GT R the most, it gives you the most confidence in taking the corners, adhesion to the road is most impressive, feels so stable on the track all the time and is the most responsive as well. This is a compact track without really long straights, I would sure love to drive this car in a longer/larger track.

Do you have to own a Porsche to qualify for the Porsche driving center ?

you got it the other way. my wife wants me to just get a e63s or so and be with it. i don't want that because it's a compromise. i want something like gts or gt3 or nsx, something that's true sports car

Ohh Henry, please get the E63S! I’m thinking either E63S or M5 for me as well, so far they are dead even! Also depends on what my wife gets, if she goes for GLS, then I prob won’t get the Benz since I want some variety in the garage. But the exhaust note from the E63S is so attractive I think I will kick myself in the butt for not getting it. Maybe you getting one will temp me more towards it, and you can guide me to getting a better deal too!
