February 9th, 2008!! 10am - 2pm

Newport Beach / BRABUS USA, LP
4040 Campus Drive
Newport Beach, California 92660
TEL 949.797.0177
FAX 949.797.9177

To all attendees and potential attendees: The event will be held at the Brabus facility in Newport beach from 10am to 2pm. The event will be restricted slightly due to the lack of parking available. There are a few parking lots right next to Brabus so cars that do not fit in the main Brabus parking lot can park close by. It is first come first served so if you already signed up then you have nothing to worry about. Sign up soon!


Brabus should have a few "complete" cars on display including one with the full 700hp+ Brabus motor in it. Brabus is going to ask Clause Ettensberger to drop off his SLR as well as have some other Brabus cars on hand.

Quick update for you early birds and caravaners:

Please do not go directly to the Brabus facility to access their main lot before 10am as you will be turned away by event staff.

Instead, we will be meeting up with all caravaners at the Newport Beach Golf Course parking lot around 9:30am. The address is 3100 Irvine Avenue, Newport Beach, CA 92660. Further instructions will be given there for roll-in to the Brabus facility.

This does not apply to anyone arriving after 10am and you may proceed as planned.

Received word that there will be added surprise goodies for those in attendance on Saturday. I've been asked not to disclose what they are but it'll be worth showing up for.

See you there Linh.

Richard Galing

Hope to stop by and check this event out.

sdsilverm3

Thanks to everyone who made it out. The sign-up list and turnout expected was pretty much on par. I think 95% of the people who signed up actually showed up. Congratulations to those who won the three Meguiars DA polishers and Permaseal treatments.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this event possible: Troy and the guys at Group5 for organizing the event. Claus, Anthony, Jeff and the rest of the folks at Brabus/CEC for their hospitality, Meguiar's, Brembo, Permaseal, Modify Luxury Exotics and the others that I may have missed.

It was great to finally meet the folks who I had not met before. Great times chatting with James (thaichi808), Vahe, John (glassjaw), Craig Lieberman, Patrick, Brandon, other James, and the rest who stayed behind afterwards.

Pics from the event are included below. Craig Lieberman will have the video up once it is completely edited. Claus put on a good show at the end with his 722 and nice drifto move turning the corner.

The album can be found here: Brabus Open House Pictures

Some samplers.....

Look what we found on the way to the event in Oceanside....
