Anybody from Minnesota or Western Wisconsin??

Hi All,
I bought a beautiful 335i in August, and it's been the most fun project in my life! The only problem--I can't find anybody else in MN or Western Wisconsin who shares my love for these cars. I live in the Twin Cities permantly, but go to college in Western WI. Does anybody know of anywhere I can spend my weekends bullshitting?

Welcome and glad you are enjoying your 335i

There are some E9X owners on here from MN, but I have never met any either! I used to see posts from time to time about trying to set up an MN meet, but nothing ever materialized to my knowledge...

Welcome to the forum! I would also like to do a small meet before we get hit with snow. I haven't met any other E9x owners yet.

So who will volunteer to be the organizer

There aren't too many nice weekends left!

This thread might do better in the Great Lakes section...

BrianMN · 11-10-2009, 07:28 PM

I was thinking that this might fit better in Great Lakes too, but who knows. Perhaps they could make one just for MN!

Has anyone heard of cars and coffee? Look it up, there are about 200+ cars average on a nice weekend, and they're all european 'nice' cars!

IRL-MN · 11-10-2009, 08:59 PM

You mean the one in Chanhassen right? I did make it out there, but only a couple of times this summer. Some impressive machinery there for sure! Have you been?

BSME90 · 11-13-2009, 02:37 AM

Too bad the last C&C was last Saturday the 7th. I was gonna go but didn't feel too well that morning. We should do a vote to see when everyone is available.

IRL-MN · 11-13-2009, 11:25 AM

A vote would work, maybe we should include a location as well as a date? Someplace central once we get a count of who is interested... Too bad I'm getting my winter tires installed today

BSME90 · 11-14-2009, 03:44 AM

I'm a last minute type of person when it comes to switching to winter tires. But anyways, hmmm...let's get some input first. Let's say the meet will be in 2 weeks? Just to make it easier scheduling wise, so no one is rushing to take that day off.

IRL-MN · 11-16-2009, 01:27 PM

I just bought the tires as I had stored my car last winter, so just decided to have the shop fit them too. Anyway, so you are thinking either 11/28 or 11/29? That should work for me, as long as it isn't snowing...

Should probably move this to the Great Lakes section, there may be some more MN folk to be found there...

BSME90 · 11-17-2009, 09:11 AM

That weekend should be sufficient in letting people know. Can someone let a mod know to move this to the Great Lakes section? I sometimes work Saturdays, but I should be able to get it off. Shall we have meet sometime in afternoon? 2pm - ?

IRL-MN · 11-17-2009, 02:24 PM

I'll start a thread in the Great Lakes section...
