There were 5 cars, but two guys had to leave after lunch before we took the pictures. A few others couldn't make it. All in all, it was nice to meet a few of the other local guys from the boards!

Thank you sir. I figure if I can't keep up in a race I might as well look good cruising!

Thanks Blake for the pics!

It was great meeting up with everyone and putting the faces to the names! Your C230 coupe is the best lookin' one I've seen! Lots of nice mods on Kevin's car too!

Seeing your rides makes me want to do something to my car now - lol! I know what you're all thinking...Nick has to lower his car. So maybe someday. Right now I'm torn between swapping out the COMAND and replacing it with a Euro one like Kevin did to watch DVD movies! NIIIIICE!

Catch up with you all later,
Nick

Beautiful cars. From the pictures, the cars look relatively very lean and very mean.

I've never seen the front end of this car Blake, not even from pictures until now. Keep up the good work.

Keep us informed of the next meet!

Note: You guys all have your front license plates taken off.

NOTE: maybe they don't want their front license plates on b/c front plates look like *** (if the damn dealer didn't drill 6 holes in my w203 I would have no front plates either, I think I'm going to have it filled in and resprayed) and it would ruin how good their cars look. as you can see, Blake and the E55 have no holes drilled, and the CLS55 looks like it has bumper plugs.

Blake,

Glad you brought together some MB Fanatics in Fresno. Hope to see it grow in the city where probably not much happens out there....right? Good to put a face on "Blake P". Dude, for some reason, I though you were asian.

Fresno is actually a big town (not quite "city") with plenty to do and lots of nice cars, though not many modded. I want to put together a detailing day soon once the weather is consistently warm.

I'd call it a "city." If I'm not mistaken, Fresno is the third major city in California. First, LA Metropolitan area; second, SF Metropolitan area; third, Fresno.
