How about meeting at the same location. South-east corner of the parking lot.

We could ten go to either Earls or Shu Sha Ya. They are both next to each other so we could decide as we walk over there or do a survey here.

I'll vote for meeting @ either 12:00 or 12:30

Thanks C350Silver, I am ok for August 24 or 17 for that matter as long as it's not raining.

If you guys want good sushi, I suggest Seto.

Are you an early riser? I once attended a Mini group drive to Squamish and we had breakfast there.

After breakfast, some proceeded to Whistler and others who didn't have the time or inclination drove back to Vancouver.

Interested? It has to be like meet at North Vancouver (Royal Oak - White Spot) 6AM and start rolling by 6:30AM to avoid any traffic along the Sea-to-Sky highway. We should do this fairly soon (before end of September) to avoid any inclement weather.

Another would be to drive across the border and head towards Chuckanut Drive and down Deception Pass. Again, this has to be an early start to avoid the usual cross the border traffic congestion.

There you go! Just a few suggestions for you guys to consider.

Hey Micro, please post time of meeting and other details soonest as possible to avoid any confusion.

Hope it doesn't rain, otherwise I'll bring my C55!
Just detailed my W204 last night after diffuser and quad tip installation.

I had Garage 5 do the job and am pretty happy with their work. Good place to go.

Really? I can't wait to see how it looks. Take some pics! haha

How is everyone for 2:00pm? And if people want to come for the food they can meet up earlier say at 1:00pm? If not, everyone can meet at 2 at the same place as last time. What do you guys think?

1:00pm - Lunch
2:00pm - Car Viewing

Would it be best to meet at 12:30 for lunch?
I'm not too sure that 1 hour would be enough?

Who's in for lunch?
