So, here is what I propose, suggestions welcomed.

When: ~5:00ish, May 18 (Today)
Where: Empty parking lot next to what used to be Mervyns at Factoria Mall http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=Pearle+Vision&fb=1&cid=0,0,2531816779210461339&near=Bellevue,+WA&oi=manybox&ct=10&cd=1&resnum=1
Why: A central meeting spot so we can all roll together
What: Cruise to the launch event in Bellevue for the 1 series, X6 and M3.
Who: YOU!!

So we can all collaborate here, take some photos and when we agree we have enough cars, we will launch to the event.

I don't know what parking will be like at the dealership so prepare for cluelessness. :dunno


Suggestions? Does anyone disagree with this?

People who think this is a good idea:

1- Nitrous (duh)
2- BMW Rollin'
3- Bimmitup
4- Gam3Boy
5-
6-
7-

I'm personally willing to drive across the water to meet the Seattle guys and drive back with them. If other Eastsiders are not willing to do that, maybe we can collaborate a meeting spot for the Eastside guys on the Eastside (like somewhere in downtow Bellevue or something), and the Seattle guys can cruise from Dick's to the Eastside spot (being that it's on the way already), meet the Eastsiders, and then we cruise to the dealer.

Eh? Eh?

I'll be coming from the Eastside. I vote for the empty parking lot next to what used to be Mervyns at Factoria Mall as the meeting spot ;) Right off 405, or the P&R right off 405 in Bellevue.

This, I can probably do. What do you guys think about getting some food beforehand as well? I might suggest something at bell-square, only because its in bellevue.:)

i'll have eaten prior to meeting up. Downtown Bellevue will be a madhouse. I wouldn't recommend it!

Yeah. We can always grab something in Factoria right there. There's plenty of options.

So it's settled? Mervyn's at 5?

BimmItUp
05-17-2008, 04:03 PM
Alright sounds good. Not sure exactly where Mervyns is, but yeah, factoria mall at 5 is do-able.

I'm pretty sure it's still vacant, so it should be a huge part of parking lot with.....nothing. Southwest end I believe.


Alright fellas I have to run, but I'll be at Factoria at 5. If plans change, would someone be so kind as to text me and let me know? 1-425-213-7000

Thanks!!

Yup! Its still vacant! Southwest end is correct. If you just drive around the block that Factoria Mall is on, you'll see the old mervyns and the big ol parking lot.

Oh woops... =P

Either way, great time with you fellas today! Lots of stories to tell and the funny part is, almost none of it has to do with the dealer. It was kinda.....boring. No offense to those who work there but it was a very lack-luster event. Sorry....

Either way we all had a lot of fun! Cruise to Alki, camp out on the 520 bridge, photoshoot, watch Huff make love to Minh and my cars, not to mention his own...

Fun day!

It was fun meeting you guys. The campout was waiting for the motorcycle accident to be cleared from the road on the bridge. We sat around roasting wieners :flamethroand drinking beer:drink1 Luckily Huff wore himself out on Minh's car so my car was safe.:ky

Minh and I REALLY need front end paint jobs. I wonder if maybe we can get a deal if we both go somewhere to get it done. Hell I might just paint my whole car.

You could just paint the whole car yourself. You would save money over a high quality whole paint job and would spend only a fraction of that for the supplies you would need to do it.

This is assuming you have skills with a paint gun though... And know how to prep and whatnot. You also need a booth but you can build your own for extremely cheap.

Furthermore, anything a shop can do on your car, if you have the skills and time to, you could do better than they could - knowledge is power :)
