Ok guys in regards to the meet - how does Sunday @ Noon sound?

1018 Willow Road
Northbrook, IL 60062



There is a very large parking lot with several food options. Buffalo Wild Wings, Roti, Meatheads, etc.

Feel free to offer alternate suggestions on time / date / location... but since this is coming up, thought I would through out a suggestion. Some friends and I have had m3 meets here in the past and the location works really well.

Hey guys. I'd like to tag along, mostly because I want to get rid of my winter tires. They are taking up space in the shed and I need that room ASAP. If you meet in Vernon Hills or Gurnee, that would be awesome, but Northbrook isn't too far.


They are stock E63 size. The fronts are in great shape, the rears are fine for one more winter if the car isn't your daily driver, or if you have a short commute. Free to whoever brings the hottest chick!

Your stock exhaust is stainless so you need to find someone who can weld stainless and use stainless welding materials.

I bailed on it since we could not seem to reach a consensus. Next weekend is probably the last chance of the year for me. The Bears play at 3:00 so we could still do a Sunday mid-morning meet. Lets try to nail a time and place down early and get a list started.

I will throw out Northbrook at 10:00 am Sunday the 7th. We could meet, chat for awhile, have some lunch and you guys could still leave in time to catch the Bears game.
