How about the 23rd? That way it gives people enough time to plan it in their schedules. A pizza joint is a good idea! What's your favorite pizza place? How about at 12 noon or 1 pm, that way those who are not early risers have time.

Yeah, that's right a lot of people showed up an hour or two late. If we meet at a pizza joint they usually don't open til 11am anyways. That way we can chat and hang out. How about 11am?

Hey the last time at that Sunnyvale event, we saw you guys like 2 hours after cuz we went to the address that was posted. The BarBQ grill site was different from the address given. So when we post this address for this coming meet. Make sure that address is correct.

How about a central location - either San Jose, Fremont, or Sunnyvale? Anybody know of a good pizza joint with lots of parking? Once we agree on the place we'll start the list!

Unhappy Late?...

I think you are referring to the four of us that came marching in about an hour late...heh, we tried and we showed...but we showed at the wrong parking lot. Will make it to the next one on time and to the right place. :^)

I would be intrested in a Bay Area meet. I personally think that this should be combined with the many SLK meets I see.

I'm ok, thanks. Rings still there, still waiting for a hot summer day to get rid of it quick and easy.

Installed iluminated amg door sills on all four doors, added some wood trimmings and upgraded the steering wheel. Thinking about a ecu/pulley upgrade, but still deciding whether to go with kleemann or rentech.

Hope all is well with you!

Cool. What kinda wood trim did you install and which wheel did you get? I added some birdseye maple to the door grips and vent sorrounds. I also go a Brabus steering wheel.

The wheel was purchased form autowerks.

proposed dates/places

So far the consensus is that the meet should be held late morning around 11am, and on a Saturday.

C'mon guys/girls - don't be shy and indicate your preference.

possible meet dates:

May 29:

June 12:

June 26:

location: pretty sure we could find a good spot on either of these 2 locations:

San Mateo

Freemont

just like the last cancelled meet, it's gonna be a problem with everyone agreeing on a date and location. I say someone just pick a date and location and start a list. I just don't understand why it is so difficult to get a group of benz owners together. Bimmer guys meet up every damn week and there are always at least 30-40 guys that show up. Geez.

Here goes:

Date: May 29th
Tims: 11:00 am
Location: Fremont, CA (pizza place to be determined)

list:
1. AL
