Schaumburg/Tilted Kilt sounds great. In for the 1st for sure, the 8th may be iffy as I leave for Cancun the next day. May be busy stocking up on condoms and bribe money for the Mexican police for my trip. lol

Thanks - would be good to meet some of you guys and get opinions on the car / what to look for etc.

I'm ideally looking for the following:

04-05
White/Silver w Black Interior
Black Maple Trim
Navi
Keyless Go
Pan Roof (not a deal breaker)
Less than 70k miles

Thanks for the tip. Is this the one you are referring to? If so it doesn't appear to have keyless and unfortunately has the blue leather. Otherwise very close. If this isn't the one you were referring to, mind sharing the link?

So how would we feel about having an aspiring photographer come out and shoot our cars? I don't know the area well enough to know if there is a park or something that would act as a nice backdrop. Our friend's sister is in college for photography and has pretty good rates now as she's still learning. She's shot some great pics of my kids. She has a Facebook page if anyone wants to check it out. Not sure if I can post it here, so PM me if you're interested. Just a thought!

Sure if she likes she's more then welcome to come out and take a few shoots for us why not. As far as parks there is a forest preseve and another park olympic fields both about a mile away from tilt kilt that has a pretty nice backdrop other then that not a lot of places with big parking areas. Well atleast none we won't get harrassed at.

Can a Milwaukee guy cruise down and join you guys? I promise not to talk football. Actually, I'm still a Colts guy anyway and am currently in mourning.
