Lisa! Did you take any pictures of me and the guys? Let me see...you were going crazy with that camera until you ran out of room.

Also, we should plan a caravan since I only live about 15 minutes away from you in street.

Yeah, that'll be totally awesome. We should meet somewhere in HB or near Lisas house since there is a parking lot there. Then hope on the freeway and we're good to good.

by the way mark, I read the post about your exhaust. No worries! It sounds nice! What exhaust did you get?

That exhaust sounds good. Perhaps I'm interested. haha Especially when you floored it in the tunnel. I was trying to get video of that but didn't have enough time to do so. I should of know we were gonna haul a$$ through the tunnel.

Sorry I've been out of the loop. No can do for moonlight, sorry. Coaster parking lot sounds fine though. Since I live near by let me know if there's anything I can do to help out.

5 coats of paint 3 coats of clear all block sanded between each coat. it will be completed in 1 week and its $1,000. every thing will be stipped off the car for paint. i purchased every external clip made just in case they break clips.

for all of that of course it is getting painted down there. up here is $3-5000 takes 2-3 months the painter is complaining and basically the guy that paints it here came from mexico.

i know people that go to tj for the dentist because a crown is lets say $400 cheaper then it is up here. The dentist they go to was educated at USC lives in Del Mar and drives across the border everyday.

i know of 3 porsches that have been painted at the place i am going to. they also do full leather interiors if you bring the skins.

I also drive a Mazda RX7, that i have had since 1994 (my old baby)...

I have all the work done in Mexico (engine mods, going to have the leather put to 2 tone, tint, etc.)... Even took the 190e, with no problems. Took a ski boat with a buddy, entire new interior (vynl and carpet) done 1 day... 300 hundred USD.

He is right, If you get your car worked on anywhere in San Diego, there is a fair chance that the people working on it are probably from TJ anyways, so May as well go straight to the source for a fraction of the price.

BESIDES!!! it's a good reason to give the g/f to LET ME GO to mexico for a day, eat some Baja Style Taco's, drink a cervesa or two or three or four or five.

sorry, been away for a couple of days...

OK... so ENCINITAS Coaster Station it is......

Saturday JULY 9th 2pm - ?

eats: there are a couple of local restaurants within walking distance of the Coaster Station. Anyone in Encinitas want to make a suggestion / make reservations ??? ( Carlsbadkmprssr or Justinius7 ) ??? Let's see how many people sign up and confirm they will show up first.
How many people want to stick around for an early dinner ? I do !!!

Activities:
- meet / chat / drool on each other's cars for a while
- Planning on getting one or two local tuners to either bring their MB/AMG cars or at least some marketing / brochures / something.
- Trying to get MB dealerships HOEHN, Escondido & MBSD to come out with something / someone ????
- Invited MB Club of America to come out and set up a booth or something to hype the Club.
- open to any more suggestions, people want to bring a band / music / entertainment / petting zoo / etc....
- of course, PHOTO-SHOOT !
- dinner at 5 PM @ local ENCINITAS restaurant (walking distance).
- watch the train go by (sorry can't think of anything else)
- whatever else you guys want to do that will be fun for the whole group (nothing illegal please) !

caravans: people can set up caravans to ENCINITAS from their local meeting spots, just e-mail or PM someone so that everyone who want's to caravan can meet up early, and get a map or at least know who to follow to show up at ENCINITAS by 2PM.

I will be re-editing the "FLYER" later tonight and re-posting it here. You can cut&paste the URL for the FLYER and post it with your regular posts in other threads / forums if you like.


did I answer all the questions ???
