Saprissa

that's the plan !!

Last one....
The first San Diego MB/AMG meet last year drew the presence of 3 cars:
- 2002 C32 AMG Sedan w/ C55 quad exhaust - Wiedermann
- 2003 C32 AMG Sedan - Peench
- 2003 C320 SportCoupé - Saprissa

This one...
we've got 38 cars signed up so far.
and quite a few more vintage classics showing up from MBCA (not on the list).
6 people on maybe-standby.

Next one....
thinking of taking over the entire Moonlight Beach parking lot in Encinitas at 7AM and make it an all day MB/AMG Beach Party

Future ones....
might have to rent out space at Qualcomm Stadium or Del Mar Race Track !



need everyone's help, to make this a success !!
If you signed up, I expect you to show up ! thanks !

OK,
stop press.


just got word that

CEC will be bringing it's beautiful beast:
a LORINSER CLS500

you gotta see this vehicle up close & personal !
Don't miss this ! Sign up and Show up !!!

CDP

OMG. Please have it at the race track in the future.

Saprissa

LOL !
actually, Del Mar Race Track is an equestrian hippodrome....
(a horse-track).

I wish we could have it a race track. I think there's something in Carlsbad, that we can look into for future San Diego meets.

Don't worry, the San Diego meets will be known as the best ever ! If I can help it....

Lady Wolf

I would really love to see this car! I thought you couldn't bring Smart Cars into the US?
Kim

CarlsbadKmprssr

Wow, this is going to be great! That's a lot of people and some very cool rides.

Saprissa

CarlsbadKmprssr,
I'm starting to get worried, that as more & more people sign up, we will take over the ENTIRE parking lot, and it might cause some undue concern from regular Coaster riders.

Don't get me wrong, there's approx 75-125 empty parking spaces, but you never know if we get more people showing up.

Any pull with the Encinitas City Council to help sanction the event or at least reserve half the lot ???? Let me know if anything is possible. I don't want anything going wrong.

CarlsbadKmprssr

Carlos, I'll call the city right now.

Saprissa

I think there is a way now, as there are kits coming in to meet all (most) the DOT requirements. Also, through some independent car dealers, and of course, Canadian grey-market .
Talk to some of the SMART people here on MBWorld... (click below)
they can get you one, with all options, no options, any color, etc....
This car will be extremely MOD friendly, when it goes mainstream soon !

SMART Car

CDP

teamwork at its best.

Saprissa

Thanks !
emphasize that this is a Classic, Vintage, and Pricy Modern Mercedes-Benz event.
Not some burning-rubber drag race with Civics and Integras.

Let them know that the Mercedes-Benz Club of America (MBCA) and some other sponsors (evosport, CEC, Hoehn Mercedes, and HPS) are sending serious representatives.

You know it !!

Chris, Mark, & Sean,
need someone to hit up all the W201, W202, W124, R107, W126, W163, W140 forums / crowds to hype up their presence at this event !
If you know anyone on these forums (both in & out of MBWorld), please spread the word.

Sean, print out the flyer, (or I can send you a better PowerPoint file to print)
and distribute to MB / AMG owners at Crystal Cove Saturday mornings...

thanks !

Dan Wang

Don't worry about me, I will only take up 1/2 a spot.

Saprissa

LOL
you can park parallel / straight out / diagonal and there's still plenty of room !

:p gotta love the SMART !!

What color is yours Dan ?

Dan Wang

Jack Black.

Lady Wolf

Can you imagine Wolf if ask him about a Smart car asking if it comes in an AMG?
Kim

Dan Wang

It does come in a Brabus model.

Saprissa

I'm sure there will be AMG kits for the SMART in no time !
I would take a bi-turbo 500+HP golf kart any day !!!

someone ask Mark Cummins, he would know for sure !!!

Saprissa

Chris, Sean, Mark, et al....

anyone posted anything on AMGPOWER or CLUB202 web sites ????

I've already hit up BenzWorld and MBKlasse. Any other web forums we're missing ????

I kinda wished there weren't so many MB forums... it's hard tracking all my posts everywhere.....

Dan Wang

Well Brabus is to smart as AMG is to Mercedes. My bone stock smart is 61hp.

Saprissa

you know what would really be cool, if I could get to show up at the meet....

a Mercedes-Benz UNIMOG truck !!
I saw one in Mexico a couple of months ago. It was a Mexican Army vehicle.
If you ever take the 'free' coastal route to Rosarito / Ensenada, Baja California, (not the Toll Road) just as you pass the FOX Movie Studios, there's a Mexican Army check-point. Right on the beach side, they've got a camouflaged-painted Mercedes-Benz UNIMOG.
I didn't have my camera that day, but you can bet, next time I'm down there, I'm getting off and taking pictures. Someone might have to come get me out of a Mexican jail with Pedro telling me he really likes my pants !! But that's another story !

anyway, anybody know anyone with a MB UNIMOG in San Diego or O.C. that could bring it to the meet ???? I'd like to take a picture of that with the SMART right next to it, or underneath it, if it fits !!

lisamcgu

Good idea ... in theory. There averages only about 3 or 4 MBs each time, and RedMongoose and I are usually 2 of them The other two "regulars" are older, and have way old classic MBs and are more into classic cars than MBs, so I don't know about them showing up, like just to be surrounded by MBs. Just so you know ...

Lady Wolf

What you are telling me is that if you want it to vrooom up an onramp you have to get out and push? Now that sounds like a car Wolf would have fun with
