Welcome to Alabama Section MBCA. We are the area
chapter not only for the entire state of Alabama but also the Florida
panhandle including Tallahassee and for the southeastern counties and
coastal Mississippi- hence our acronym Alabama Mississippi &
Gulf coast- AMG. We share an enthusiasm and passion for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles, including Smart, but ownership is not a
requirement.
We find that while the interest in the wonderful Mercedes-Benz vehicles
brings us together, the friendships we make by meeting and having great
events are the real value of membership. After all, it takes
special people to recognize the value of these extraordinary cars.
Since the only North American Mercedes-Benz
production facility is
located near the center of our section between Birmingham and
Tuscaloosa, Alabama, we are the “home” (Heimat) of Mercedes-Benz in
North
America. We feel that part of our mission is to host visitors
to
this magnificent facility, the only production site in the
entire world for the ML, GL, and R-class vehicles.
We host a tour of the factory and museum (the only factory M-B museum
outside Germany) every year as well as an associated car show and
scenic drive. We are also able to host other sections and
individuals who are planning visits to MBUSI. There are many
striking and interesting things to do in the area for Mercedes-Benz
enthusiasts.
