The Saturday Irvine Cars and Coffee Show was great but I didn't see you flight_CLS63. Where were you parked? I saw Vadeem's CLS63 from MBLN (nice!!) but not yours - darn, I would have loved to take a look. I was parked by Bltserv's 05 SL55 "Rocket." Gets me doing some AMG wanna-be dreamin'. Actually dared to go in the show with my SL550 - no comments about just having a "plain SL" this time.

I agree we need to organize something for Saturdays. Maybe somewhere in the Spectrum parking lot? By the Corner Bakery Cafe at 9 after the Irvine show? Or Crystal Cove Promenade? Let's kick around some ideas and do it!

Irvine Spectrum sounds good, but I doubt many people will show up in the morn, I was thinking more at night for us to meet up cause I know alot of us would pop up and it'd fit our schedules well, but I'm still down for morning meets, then later meet up again w/ more people at night, I'm trying to think what place we could go and do something cause it's hard for some us to get into a bar or club (4 more months till I don't have to worry about that! )

I dunno, any ideas guys? I'll try and search for some places this week, I was thinking the Block, but meh what would we do, lol, don't worry I just threw that one out there, hopefully I can find something, any help would be great!

Damn I totally forgot to check this part of the forum but I wouldnt have made last Saturday anyways. I am up for a daytime meet on the weekend, Saturday or Sunday except for this weekend- sisters b-day.

There has to be a cool spot maybe in Laguna Beach where parking is ample and a cool eatery/brew pub is nearby.

Yes, That was SL-Chick and I.
I dont remember seeing your car??? What Color ??

Her black new SL550 looks great. Super clean.
We had loads of people checking out our SL`s.
Ran into Vadim. I think he had a CLS55 on Saturday.

I counted like 7 Benzes. 2 Were Classics.

Man. We got to do a bit better on the turnout.
I know its a bit early for most. But come on out !

argh, no ideas yet guys, I been looking and looking for a place for us to kick it at night but nothing rang a bell, but Vic if you know a spot out in Laguna, let us know, I don't live out there so I don't know what are the hangouts, hopefully we can find something for us all to hang out on Sats.

Andy,

We usually meet up on Tuesdays or Wednesdays (depending on the schedule) around 5:30pm somewhere in Irvine/Tustin Ranch. We have a few cocktails and shoot the breeze. Anyone and everyone who can make it is invited. Contact EMRLiquidLife or myself. See the thread below:
