Illinois car shows

Do you have an interest in attending car shows? I am in the process of obtaining a list of MB owners who would like to attend local car shows and events. If you are interested, please send me your e-mail address.

There should be a CHICAGO MERCEDES CLUB OR GROUP that can form meets with all type of MB Cars. If you are up for creating one or putting one together I can offer to help.

Thx for the quick response, Beanpit. Are you interested in attending shows or other events with fellow MB owners?

I'll shoot over an e mail with some ideas tonight, when I'm back home. Hopefully we can bring the MIDWEST MB guys a bit closer together and have some big and great meets this summer.

The guys at Eurocharged (www.eurocharged.com) are in Chicago. I'm sure they would love to come join the MB guys for any car shows. They sponsored a booth at HIN last year and stole the show. They could always bring their Eurocharged girls.
