How was the meet, guys? Please post some pictures .

By any chance, anyone trying to get rid off their C32 brake for shiny BREMBO or STOPTECH? I maybe interested in your C32 brake kit and can do local pickup.

Guys, thanks all for coming, it was nice meeting everyone and see familiar faces from last year!

We should do it again soon, let's hear suggestions on the date.

I also might get McLaren SLR and Maybach show up for one of our future ones

Eugene:
Thanks for putting this together. It was really great seeing the 190's! I wish we could have stayed around a little longer.
We need to organize a drive this summer, I'd love to see all of those great cars (plus a few more) out on the road for a little fun.
Thanks again!

Looks like it was a great meet. I wish I could have been there. The wedding I attended in Milwaukee, WI the night before took its toll on me the day after. On the way home, I did see a sweet silver amg clk on I-94.

I will def. make the next one!!! I am sure it will attract more people as I know the weather will be warmer.

Someone buy These 10 Footers!

You are bidding on a set of "as is" used 19" chrome 5 spoke Real AMG rims and tires. Used for about three years. These are far from perfect although they would be perfect for a beater or snow set. Some corrosion, pitting, curb damage and flaking. These are what I would call 10 footers. From 10ft they look alright, but upclose they're pretty rough. If you looking for a mint set don't bother bidding, but if you're looking for a beater set, or if you got a good chromer or wheel repairer these are it. Fronts are equipped with dunlop sp sport 9000 245/40zr19 have about 60-70% tread left. Rears are equipped with BFgoodridge G-force comp T/A 275/35zr19 have about 70-80% tread left. They were used on a 2001 s500 and then on a 2002 s430. I don't know the offset or width but I guess from the tire sizes you can consult with tire/ wheel expert to see if these would be good for your application. Shipping is very expensive for these due to their weight and size, local pick up is no problem, in fact encouraged!

LET C32 2002
guys i had a hit and run and it happened to be that my wife(soon to be divorced hopefully) had the policy in lapse i had the accident on april 4 at 4:19pm and the insurance company cancelled the policy on the same day so i am **** out of luck and trying to find the best yet cheapest way to repair it. i have a guy looking into it but no price yet. i went to a shop i know and its 2k without the headlights which are after market. anyone wants to let me know of a good body shop that is reasonable? also i liked the meet but have to say i hated the isolation factor.........i think i and others would prefer the streets of woodfield. we don't need a license to hangout. more places to eat and drink and more spectators to see our car as well as we spectate others cars.i prefer the open feeling to guys so we tried this lounge three times already so lets try a new location and set it into the summer when joe and jerry can attend. guys sorry i didn't say "hi" to everyone but i had friends to entertain also. sorry if i offended anyone.
