i was lucky enough to get to drive his slk 55 amg put about 10k on it , 95 911 air cooled ftw first car i drove on the road after getting my permit years ago and same day got pulled over , now he has decided to not own such expensive cars and drives a g8 gt that he got 26k out the door in 08 and a 2010 vw gti that he has yet to let me drive

wish i could make it i was actually thinking about a road trip but just found out i have to work oh well maybe next time can't wait to see some pics.

I just wanted to say the thought of seeing more then 2 C classes in 1 place and not at a stop light, is making me all misty....down there....

bdgdl08

I'm completely with you on that. More than just seeing more is knowing that everyone else will care about them. I always get excited when I see a C on the road, but the other driver doesn't even give me a second look.

I KNOW. I'll be trying to catch up to see if it's an enthusiast. Looking for the slightest hint! A debadgement, a flat hood emblem, something! Nope.. just another middle-aged lady without a clue on what "AMG" or "Brabus" means.

AdidasC230

can you catch up to another c class you drive a c240 sorry I couldnt resist, damn wine!

laneshift

HAHAHA. That's good, man. Usually I catch them at the red-lights. Otherwise, they just slowly.... pull.. away.

Like the ML350 did the other night. Smoked by an SUV.

AdidasC230

Wait an ML350 is faster then a 240? I would have figured the 240 being like 9 bazlion pounds lighter would have that, even with less HP, Guess then again its almost 100 HP less. Dammn man I guess your right.

laneshift

lol. Maybe I'll have a better chance of keeping up had it been a 4matic. My mother's '10 ML350 does early/mid-eight seconds.

I think I'll retire the racing. It's gotten really bad. Even racing with my brother's '08 Rav4, it depends on my launch. Kill me.

AdidasC230

I think at the meet we now need to find a way to swap a 3.2 or a 350 in it, make it a sleeper, no one will see it coming being it says 240 on the ***

laneshift

We could also put a 240 badge on a 320.. or a 280. I've debadged my car already. Mixed feelings.

AdidasC230

Ok its friday, who is still going! I plan on it still

bdgdl08

I'm still in 100%. I might have some friends coming, but I have no clue. I'm sure, out of everyone that said they were going, we'll still have a good turnout.

laneshift

I'm definitely not able to make this. It's so stupid. The mother wants me to take the visitors to freaking SeaWorld. F**K Shamoo man..

bdgdl08

Sorry man, definitely next time. Enjoy SeaWorld, it's a cool - er - whatever. Have fun man.

AdidasC230

On the way to o town cell is 941 266 8241 callme if I'm not there by 1 ish I'm prob still driving, posted while driving 1 knee style lol

bdgdl08

Gosh guys, way to have a good turnout!

bdgdl08

By the way, it was very nice to meet you, Nick.

AdidasC230

Yeah you to man, it was good to finally talk to some one else about the car, and learn a bit more about it. Def have to do it again, but with more then 2 people showing up!

laneshift

Oh man. Only two people? :/

Maybe the other w203's were on the other side of the lot!

BTW. Seaworld sucks.

bdgdl08

There were 2 or 3 others that we saw. 1 coupe and 1 other sedan, but none of them joined us. We were parked right in front of the Bento, too.

samaritrey

Wow that sucks wtf where were all of you guys. i am glad i didn't drive down there for this. i actually almost did that because i want to visit someone in FL anyway.

LILBENZ230

I'd have came just to meet Drew.. but I couldn't make it at all. By the way, I received the dust covers back. Thanks soooo much.

bdgdl08

No problem. Good luck getting them on and all.

pope2001

bdgdl08
