SLfanDC, you should definitely try to make it! Bring the CLK55 and M3. People are going to be trickling in from 7:30 to 9 and then we'll be hanging out until whenever, probably midnight.

Try Starbucks if you get there late. We may migrate over there and show up the Domestics/Japanese meet they always have there.

Hmmm... if your president would have used all that money he spent in Iraq for a bridge or a tunnel from Europe to the USA, I´m sure I´d make it in time (several stops at fuel stations would be required though)

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it. We got a good benz show up. I think we had as many Benzes as beemers. We should try this again this weekend. Bringing a digicam this time. TowerRecords was a great location, ANy takers?

Sorry I couldn't get there last week (was stuck out of town on a business trip), but I think I can make it this weekend if something is being planned.

It was nice meeting everyone at the meet!

I'm in if you all wanna meet up on Friday night but I will probably show up late. We should meet and do a late night drive around DC or something so everyone else can join the caravan that can't make it to Rockville. Lettme know Bensitto!

This friday April 23rd is looking good weather wise for another meet. Going to be 70° and only 10% chance of rain. should I set it up? I'll ut up a new post for it of course if we get enough interested people.

Whoever wants to meet up in Georgetown and caravan up to Rockville this might be a good idea since we have alot of people in Alexandria and DC.

Let me know who's in...
