C Class Owners in San Diego

I was just thinking that I know there are a few C Class Owners in San Diego and that we should all just go out for a little meeting or something. Check out everyone's car and ask questions, etc. It seems as if I'm always accompanying my friends w/ their car clubs somewhere, I just thought that we could hook each other up with some good deals and do group buys together. Anyone aroud?

I'm in Rancho Bernardo in SD during the week but I usually go up to Mission Viejo in OC during the weekends. I'm up for a meet in either SD or OC as long as it's not during work hours.

Hey, count me in.....

I'm usually cruising around during the weekends.
I think it'd be cool to meet up.
So who's going to organize this?:p

Outlook is good!

Well...since there are a lot in North County, we could aim for something in La Jolla or Del Mar within the next two weeks. You guys prefer the weekend or after the common 5:00pm workday?

A Starbucks is always a good place to conglomerate!

If you guys are interested, we can make it a weekend BBQ at my place. I'm in Temecula. 45-50 minutes from Irvine Spectrum or Qualcomm Stadium, unless you drive like a granny.


But no making fun of my brown grass & weeds

Pick an upcoming Saturday/Sunday, I'm open, but it doesn't look like there is much interest.

You might want to start a new thread so both the SD and OC guys will read it.

Sunday is always better for me. Does this include a mad dash through the Ortega? Why don't we meet at the biker hangout at the top of Ortega overlooking Lake Elsinore. This gives us a time to test our suspension mods on the twisties, nice views. It's also good for people that live along the 15 and only about 20 miles off the 5 freeway but what a 20 mile trip it is. The 5 fwy people can meet in San Juan Capistrano for the wild ride up the Ortega as a group. Once you select a date post it seperately in all the forums as a GTG so you'll get a larger turnout, specially on BnzSport.com, they are always doing a GTG. Let me start by selecting March 9th, 10:00AM at the hangout and 9:15 for those that want to meet in S.J.C. for a group ride on the Ortega.

Let's plan for the weekend in La Jolla or Del Mar. I like this idea, though it doesn't make a huge difference to me.

Mesa Grande, 76, Palomar Mountain are my suggestions.

This is why I offered my place, I'm about the same distance from everyone.


SD, OC, LA I don't think it really matters, only 2 people are interested


It's gonna be a great GTG...
