I was the one wearing the SAPRISSA shirt.
Anyway, please please hunt me down next time. Or just ask anyone "who the heck is Saprissa?" you'll get about 75 people pointing my direction.

Thanks for coming. Unfortunately, i didn't get out and see most of the cars that showed up, until after most had left, and I went in to the restaurant to get some dinner, and then came back out to see who was still around....

Most had left by then. Well, see you at the next big one in 2006 !

Carlos

If you managed to miss Carlos at the meet, you were probably at the wrong 1 ! It took me about 5 min into the meet to figure who saprissa was

I would of taken a nice shot too....
by the time I pulled my camera out of my car, there were only like 20 cars left. I didn't take any pics all day, cause of running the raffle and sign-ups. Don't worry man... we will have plenty of PhotoShoot opportunities later up in the LA area.

thanks for coming down to the meet !
Really appreciate the turn-out !

Carlos

Hi Jim,
That orion blue SLK55 belongs to FLORP
who happened to be the 100th person to sign up for the meet
and got a nice prize. When I first saw the car there, I thought for a second that you had actually made it to the meet !!

Next BIG MEGA meet will probably be in 2006....
but i'm sure there will be some get-togethers between now & then.

Not sure about Lisa's tires.....

Front license plates suck ! I'm going on a mission to remove front license plates from all cars I see, and start a black market front license plate sale in Bangladesh.

Bordeaux Red E55 Wagon..... another one ?? impossible...

but then again, with all these girls running around in mini-skirts, had there been a Bordeaux Red E55 Wagon at the meet, I probably would have missed it altogether.... distractions / distractions !

talk to you soon Mr Wolf

Carlos
