Philadelphia meet-- April 9th :)

Hey everybody! My name is Joe, and (as you can tell) this is my first post here. I'd like to invite any E55s, SL55s, Sl600s, SL65s, and SLRs (->it's worth a try, right?!?!) to my meet on April 9th. The meet will be at 10 o'clock am at the IMAX theater parking lot behind King of Prussia mall. We will have over 30 cars, all of which will be exotics. We have everything from countaches to modded 996 turbos to Carrera GT (maybe two). The address of the place is 300 Goddard Blvd, King of Prussia, PA. I'd love to see some of you guys make it out! I have threads on 6speedonline and Ferrarichat, the two forums I frequent. If you'd like to see them I'll post the links. Thanks so much.

Joe

Is this rain or shine? just cause im sure some members might want to come from afar. Im guessing this is open to all MB owners and sounds like a really fun event. We definately needed a good euro/exotics meet on the east coast to compete with those westerners. lol.

oh and welcome to the board

Rain or shine... initially they wanted just the higher AMG models, but if anyone in particular's is exceptionally nice... I don't see why not.

P.S.
And if it's not... we can put in on the otherside of the movie theater or just out a really big bag over it!

Like I said before I will be recruiting at Capitol on the 24th (high end benzes). IllM3 said he would be coming to the track day event as well. We will roll up in a caravan from the DC area. My car is a show car so I dont know if that qualifies as a "nice" benz, haha.
