EuroCarFan and I thought it might be a better idea to create regional Sighting threads e.g. Socal, Norcal, NY/NJ, Midwest, etc....

Yeah when VT brought this up a while back, I believe the Admins/Mods didn't want to have another subforum for Sightings and said that the Meet & Greet section is essentially the same thing. Hence we just did this Sightings Thread but I agree with VT, we should have regional ones. I'm going to start one for NorCal.

Now I know what the nomination PM was all about VT. 
If the the Midwest Sightings thread gets beyond 2 pages in a year I'll be surprised!

Hi Lomag,
I think someone has menioned this before, but I'd like to bring it up again. Can we have a Sightings subforum? It sure would be nice to know that we might have seen a fellow e60.net member.
