That sounds pretty cool, ill try my best to stop by and pay you guys a visit. But for sure we need to have some meets like a bi-weekly or montly gtg, somewhere local i know the Vw/audi guys do that. Also Eurotek guys meet up weekly in the summer time mostly BMW. But they don't like me for some reason i think cause i drive a 4 door Grandpa Car lol.

I passed an E55 on 294 just north of the airport last week like he was out for a relaxing 55 MPH drive. Hope it wasn't one of you. If we have it during the week I can only attend in the evening.

I don't know, didn't slow down enough

Actually it was silver in color but didn't pay attention to the wheels. I changed lanes in front of them hoping they wanted to play but they didn't. Looked like a clean cut gentleman of 30's/40's age.

There's also an E55 owner out west, north of I-88 off Orchard Road that I pass, only on sunny days. Seems to be another 55 MPH driver.
