I work every day unfortunately... I can leave work @ 9:30 on fri or sat nights....... and drive down and make it by probably 10:45. I don't know what you guys are up for but I thought maybe you guys wanna grab something to eat/drink as a group.... that way everyone could get to meet one another. Are there any restaurants around there.... something sociable... i dunno.. like hooters... wing house... etc.
Jake... you know that area best...

Food is a good idea i say...There are TONS of restaurants in the waterford lake area...There is a hooters right there, sport bars, and also others such as somkey bones, red lobster etcc....all in the same center..its pretty nice.

madmunky... sorry man but i'm pretty much always in Dade county... occasionally Broward but still way south Broward. I noticed you also have a 1989 560SL. I have one too. What color is yours and how much mileage?

I have car shows at my shop since the lot is quite large. Sound good? Maybe have a catering company throw something together for a small fee?

orlando has enough to do in regards to an MB get together..... it is also centrally located. I will be driving 1 hour and 15 mins but I don't mind as long as more people will show up due to location being in a fair proximity to all.
Macedo... that sounds cool.... where is your shop located? We can probably get more people to show if we do something towards later afternoon/evening and then maybe all roll out and get something to eat at a sports bar. Or maybe just grill some burgers and stuff at the location?
BTW.. Macedo, do you guys do any work on MB's?

I went to the Race Rock Cafe on International Drive for a Z meet a while back. It was a long day from Miami, but I dropped the wife at the outlet malls and she didn't complain too much after that.

no clue...... how about we list what days everyone is capable of meeting and the times that are convenient?

I would assume that a saturday night or friday night would be most convenient for everyone... then again that is just my assumption.
