Any MB car enthusiasts in Dallas, TX?
Also wondering if there are any MB car clubs around here...
It would be nice to meet some people with the same interests in cars.

I am from Garland.
Been to a couple RKC meets, hardly ever seen a Benz out there, mostly mustang, corvett, viper, some porsche and a few interesting exotics.

would be nice to have a meet for MBs

suggestion: says we have a dozen responds to this thread, pick a spot in between and just have a cual meet once or twice saturday after noon a month

can we move this thread to meets and events section to get more viewing?
i don't know how.

Hey Guys,
I'm a bit out of the way too, but not as far as Wichita Falls. I live in Sherman, which is about an hour north of Dallas. I'll keep an eye out for any gatherings, but if someone would be kind enough to drop me a pm about it, I would love to meet.
Regards, Erin

RKC meets

Hi guys,
Looks like we a gathering up quite a few Benz enthusiasts here

There is a weekly RKC meet on Sunday 2pm-6pm.
The place is called The Filling Station restaurant
19009 Preston Rd. Dallas, TX 75252.

I been out there a couple times but felt left out because I am the only Benz.
Let's see if we can make it more interesting with a few more.

Peace,
