Ya, it seems like a gurilla event. I'm probably going to meet these guys here first and find our way to the beach where all the cars & no doubt cops are : http://www.amgpower.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=1601

LOL! HA HA .. It was wicked cold out there @ the beach that day. Don't know how men work the north seas Crab'n and such... The C43/55 on the left is Carl's ; the C43/55 to the right you see a little (with the snow tires on OZs) is mine. I'm not in the pic. Who's Fotki Member ID did the pic come from? I'd like to check more out. I didn't take too many pics.

I don't know if forum cross posting is allowed here, but check out the tristate forum on Audiworld. Here are a ton of posts containing pics. That Fotki folder was the only one that had you guys in it. Next GTG I'll be there.

Very kewl. Someone in the backseat had the camera in continuous as they drove by. The woman who is driving that Audi stopped later and walked around my car looking @ it. It was weird; I didn't ask. :p

edit: Carl told me about a GTG coming up this April near Kennedy Airport. He said that one is huge.

The girl is Emily. Actually, she is the one that lead me to getting a C43. She works at MillerMotor Car and is very knowledgable about cars. Hard to believe but true. The C43 is her dream car which is probably why she came for a closer look at yours. Keep me informed about the GTG near Kennedy, I want to get a look at your car.

Tell Emily I said hello. I should have sparked up a conversation with her but she seemed eager get back to her car. Personally, I liked the look of her Audi a lot.

...don't look too close @ my car. Loads and loads of rock chips, especially on the front bumper ...and I won't have the redone Kinesis rims back before the next GTG. suspension's kewl to see but it takes a lot of work to get to it. (hey, how about that; back on topic )
