No caravans from LA and no Caravans from the West...lol... if I was coming from Ventura, I would have asked more people out that way.

Vader will be in his Emperial heavy *** Brabus car, somwhere hidden on a bush or something ... or "on location" shooting a video or something...lol ... hehe...

The rest of the cars will be there!

Cheers!

Mr Oggle:

See what you've done???... now you've got people thinking that you are south of the border!!..lol

Mr Massimo is looking someone to Caravan from the LA area... maybe the two of you should start coordinating something...

Cheers!

nice meeting ya'll today...benzoboi's e55 is off the hook. carlos's bodykit and suspension is sweet, mario's quad is awesome sounding, and doug's citron is pimp as usual. two w202 was w/ the reiger kit.

had a little fun on the freeway today... there was a little too much traffic...hard to keep up w/ the few cars in front.

sorry had to go early, but gotta eat at home w/ parents.

no worries Frank. it was a nice meet. not as many people as the last one, but the 1973 450SL was nice, and the 86 420SEL. i was the lead car from San Dimas to Pasadena, hard to have to much fun on the freeway with the traffic, but it was cool crusing with 10MB's in a row.

Carlos, your body kit looks so nice. im seriously considering getting it for my car. I'm not going to go as far as the A La Mode job you are doing but, wow, what a difference the AMG kit makes.

Mario, impressed with the C55 exhaust. i never realized how intensive the project was. looks great.

Benzoboi, my brother wont shut up about the ride you gave him in your E55. pretty sweet car, nothing more i can really say, the car speaks for itself, LOUDLY! lol.

great get together guys and gals. thanks!

It was really good seeyin so many people showin up. It wasn't all the newer benz which made it that much cooler. It was nice to see a mix of current and older version of benzs. Frank yer car IS off the hook. Pics don't do it justice!~! Mario yer car is lookin awesome with the quad exhaust and all. Really good overall package. And what can I say about Saprissa's car...too many good things to be said about that car...simply amazing. Doug...if I remember anyone from meets it's you. Your car jus looks hot!~! It was nice meetin you again and yer bro was koo too. It was good meetin everyone again. I will work with others on this forum to get another "gtg" set up in the future..possibly in the new year sometime and hopefully it will be bigger then this meet and the one back in May.

Like Frank said...where the pics???

Ah nm found them on the other post...

yeah the pics turned out really nice.

it was a nice turn out because ever car is inidividual in mods. except the two 202's. one was black the other white. LOL! patrick would have made it to this meet in his 84 300D, but he's still repairing some damage. hopefully we'll continue to get more older models out there.

dude its hard to compete anymore with Carlos' car. i saw his car three weeks ago at the bbq for steve. then i saw it yesterday! freaking awesome. he's getting about every mod i have, which is cool, he's hard core though, with the AMG body kit. damn! i still have my headlamp washers!

Well you got a ton of more mods then I do right now. All I have is a kit right now. I won't have the HRE's anymore but you will see me on some other rims. And no it will not be 20's again. I am going 19's for the "perfomance aspect" or my E5Slow. Gotta help my car go as fast as it can knowin it is pretty slow
