Hey guys,
I wanted to know if the NorCal guys here have anything planned for caravanning down to Santa Barbara for Bimmerfest 07. I'm about to book my hotel and everything but not sure which hotel. If you have good suggestions please throw them this way. As far as the drive, I'm looking to head down there sometime Friday morning and heading back up here Sunday morning. Let me know!

Ha ha, wow. Bimmerfest isn't until May. That's enthusiasm. 
Have you seen last year's thread and pictures?

Yeah man! A lot of guys that I know up here booked their rooms over a month ago, so I'm feel like I'm falling behind!
I was there last year and it was a blast, I have to prepare for this year because bimmerfest falls on the exact same weekend/days as Cinco de Mayo so it's gonna be hectic down there. I'm going to guess that all the hotels will be all booked up pretty soon from now.

I made it there last year. I was just a little slow in adding the links to the threads about Bimmerfest '06.

I can't wait for Bimmerfest, it's going to be awesome. Oh BTW, if anybody in SOCAL is interested, we are looking for a few more e60's to sponser for Bimmerfest.
If you want to do a full hamann kit for your car with wheels and also lowering, contact me at wheelpower. 714 375-9666 and ask for Chris.

I'd like to go this year. I know there's usually a big caravan organized by BayBimmerz. I've never been to Santa Barbara either so I have no clue as to where to stay. Any suggestions?
