So you hear about lots of meetings in Europe, SoCal, New York/North East, etc. How about setting up a BMW meeting for sunny South Florida folks?? I am not sure how many of us are down here...however, it would be nice to have at least a quarterly meeting, just a thought...

Let me know and I will volunteer to coordinate the event.

Look forward to hearing from you!

Yeah, you could all meet at Zafer's house, and provide him with the same courtesy he gave the members of this Forum. I'll give you his address, his vehicle info, his hangout spots, and a photo. Make sure you wear gloves!!

How about Sunday, January 25th??? Say 1:00 PM? We need to think of a place convenient for most members (I'm trying to make easy for Krozy); I'll say somewhere in Weston by Town Center Plaza...the roads are nice out west. However, I would encourage members to come up with locations as well, this is the first location that comes to mind! Let's hear from everyone...

A more central location sounds good. I have not taken my car on a road trip so that sounds like a great idea! Do you have any suggestions for a location?
I look forward to entertaining all suggestions.

Yea, I have never driven through Miami myself and I would rather meet at a more central location too.

I know it's probably a long shot and I have no idea what we would have to do to arrange it... but could we rent one of the racetracks here in south florida, like homestead? Have a cookout, a meet and great, and have the track for a day? Maybe that could be an annual thing... and find a more convenient spot for more regular meets. Personally, I am very excited to meet all enthusiasts here in south florida. Val, I will help you out anyway I can. Let's do this. Let's not over analyze. We can't satisfy everyone. We all have commitments etc. Let's just pic a place and time and we will all sacrifice if we want to be there. I DO!

Ditto!!!!
Since this is our first meeting in SF I figure I would try to accomodate everyone, within limits of course...
I will jump on it and find out more info about Homestead, I kinda have ample time since my biz is very, very slow. Will give more details Monday night. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
