I passed by a small convoy of cars on my way to drop off my C32 to its new owner. It was 2 black W211 E55's, a white CLK, and a white C55 (sdsilverm3?). I felt like a crasher getting in the middle of their convoy by accident.

my car was bone stock and stripped of all its stuff , felt like the red headed stepchild.

Thanks to Angela for organizing the meet and everyone else that pitched in. Pleasure meeting some new faces and seeing some familiar faces as well.

Traffic on the 5 south sucked ***. Just got home like 45 minutes ago.
