COMING TO FLORIDA!!

So as the title states i am going to be in Tampa, Florida for a month for my job.

I am from southern california where the car scene is very explosive as you all can imagine, and heard that south florida is also a nice hot spot for the car scene. I just shipped my car to Tampa yesterday as i will be landing in florida monday.

Basically just wondering who is from that area and what are the best roads to drive and any events coming up soon. Recently bought a 2012 c63 P31 coupe and it stayed stock for 1 day lol

Just lookin to have some fun with my C since im only in tampa florida from the beginning of march until the beginning of April.

Well I will be on the east coast for the next 6 months and am starting in Florida, so shipped it for that reason.

Maybe his organization covered the cost as a business expense? If so, that's pretty awesome.

That's awesome. Otherwise I was about to call you crazy, and not the good kind haha.

Enjoy the fun in the sun. I haven't see a day above freezing temps in over a month here, literally.

I have family that lives in broward I am usually down every few months and always itching for car related stuff to do. Guilty (off the forum) picked me up before he moved and we cruised down to Miami. Would love to meet more FL members when I'm down again

Shoot a follow to @flraces if you have instagram, we post all the big events in the South Florida area so maybe you will be able to link up with us for something, I actually know a few C63s in Tampa that I will try to get you in contact with if you want. If you (or any members) make it further south to the Palm Beach/Broward areas as before and want to link up, shoot me a PM am always down to grab a beer with an MBWorld member!

HRE Open house is definitely an eye opener! Having been down there more time then i can count for targa trophy, meets and other cruises, its a top notch warehouse that shows exactly why they are so successful.

Hope you get to see it with your own eyes
