Mercedes is gone physically, but still in my heart.
Had a great time guys, nice meeting all of you. We'll set up one more before the end of the summer, so just look out for it.

I had a great time as well. It was fun driving around the park looking for an empty lot. Quite a few people around the park were shocked to see so many great cars driving through.

Can't wait to see more pics.

good to meet (and see again) everyone. i'll post pix soon. should i continue this thread or start a new one? it looks like the bulk of what i got were the c-classes and some various ones when all the cars were there.

here's one that i popped out with the c-class line up photo i took towards the end of the meet. and just for the record, midafternoon is probably the single worst time to take photos... also, i'm not sure how this photo will render on browsers outside of a mac - i didn't calibrate the color settings when i threw this one together. hope you like.



we'll do a much better location next time. i was at a photoshoot this evening and scouted some pretty good spots in manhattan.

I was gonna show up in my CLK55 but the world cup was on and she needed an oil change badly so I dont want to drive her too much till i attend to it. (which should be this morning depending how busy the service center is)

Looked like a bunch of fun and I will deff come out for the next one when/wherever it is.

Oil issue prevented me from attending the euro meet in LI @ Wantagh aswell =(

Oh well i ahve no one to blame but myself lol, should of changed it before hand.

Good turn out Bmw's and Benz's I'm sorry I could'nt make it until 1:00 but when I did it was a good look, it was really good to put some face's with some handle's as well as seeing some Hot car's.
See you guy's at the next one and or what ever event is presented and time permits.

BTW, if the attendants here are planning on attending the MBUSA held event @ the end of August, and I hope everyone can, please check in in the other thread and register with Pete [55fanatic] so he can tell the organizer @ Mercedes how many are planning on attending and they can have enough food and [hoping again] parting gifts ready @ the end.

Again ALL are welcomed to register for the event, I just need head count more then people just saying yeah Ill be there... Also if you want to pre register for the AutoX...(cross reference this with my statement above, muahahaha)

Besides a good turn out this year leads to more stuff from sponsors NEXT year, like I dunno, umm LimeRock and a free track event?

A few people staggered in here and there but not much. Although when it was down to me and NoRegret4Life just hangin around a white M3 and a Lamborghini Gallardo showed up. That was pretty cool.

Nice meeting you and congrats on having by far the hottest car around.

Too bad I was sitting at GSP waiting for stragglers while you guys were driving! I took a picture of it on my phone, it was just about the most amazing car I've seen, well you can judge for yourself. Anyway, you guys should've stopped at KFC down the street or something and came back. We were there a good hour and a half afterwards.

Hey man thanks for hooking this up, you better get the next one started like we discussed before the summer ends, anyway it was really cool hangin with you and the guy's, no E-thug's allowed just guy's whom can appreciate how different our styles are, there were so many different flavors to look at and all of them HOT.
Ps.>You lucky ******* I must have just missed the Lambo, you should have ask for a ride now that would have been crazy, no what's crazy is if he would have let you drive it (damn) .

Yeah no problem, I'll get the date for the next one settled in the next few days. We'll set this next one up for maybe mid-August. Certainly no e-thugs, especially considering those are the people who are 5'1 100lbs and can't back anything up haha. Anyway, great time, nice putting a face to the name. Glad you had a great time.

Any way to make a "No burnout, especially if you have less than 200 HP" rule for next time?

Thanks for setting this up - good to go to an NJ meet that I wasn't out $100 for the bbq on.
