Default POLO St.Moritz: Maybach62S, G55AMG, SLR722, CLK-DTM-AMG cab!

Time for the Polo on Snow report, edition 2007 8)



This year I didn't had time to follow the Polo event because we had a nice ski weekend with firends, but I managed to make a quick tour late in the afternoon and what a suprise: 3 special cars placed in the middle of the public area :shock: (my dad told me, they didn't had barriers during the day too, but super crowded by people )
Everybody gone home, except some technicians and two guards, tricky light conditions (almost night), no tripod available and windy :roll:

And the presented cars where:
- Maybach 62S
- McLaren SLR "722"
- CLK DTM AMG Cabrio, my first one


from 1hp to several hundreds
Maybach-AMG Shuttle service on the lake



Several AMG's on the lake/streets, from ML63 AMG, R AMG , 2 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S


Maybach 62 leaving and near Palacew Hotel, G55(L on the left) AMG




some artistic pics, whitebalance button to the max




arriving at the public area behind the stands, I was suprised to see this:




pure stylish black Maybach 62S



CLK DTM AMG Cabrio








SLR "722"




after a while, it was getting darker and the illumination was on





with /without flash (master Martijn, I'm learning )




I hope you enjoyed the report.

very very nice st.moritzer - the CLK DTM AMG Cabrio is awsome, and the 722 with the black rims looks also very hot cool pics with the colored lights in the back.

oops, there were R's around, but you're right.

About the light conditions you mentioned also in the monthly contest,
it was getting dark, longer exposure times were needed, it was windy and only few pics came out well, that's why I "complained"
The ones posted are ok, the illuminated ones are cool IMO , sent them to the local MB dealer ( the one with the 2 "722" in the garage earlier this year)



edit:
removed the Jaguar XK pics ( backup copy) which you guys are referring to below

Thanks for the comments, the main thread is
