Perth Meet

Fellow forum folk,

It's been a while since we have all caught up. It also sounds like we have a few new local members and some nice cars being built, so it would be good to see them all.

Let's throw up some ideas. I know I have been craving a nice, long drive on some winding roads, so I vote for that.

Pretty hard to plan for nice weather at the moment, so do we think July or August?

Keen to hear some ideas and see who is keen!

Craig

Figured I'd do an intro in here since I'm new, names Andrew and bought my e92 back in April with a few aftermarket goodies. Sorted out a few cosmetic bits, MHD and a BMS intake since then. Inlets, fmic and downpipes are awaiting installation, hopefully I can sort them out in the next couple of weeks.

Deffs keen on meeting up, checking out some e9x builds and heading out for a drive!

Yeah I'm in the same boat. New financial year is crazy for me, so I think August will work best.

Welcome mate. Great buy! It looks mint. I actually think I saw you driving around (somewhere, sometime) as there are not too many with the quad exhaust tips that I've seen.

There are some pretty epic builds in the Aussie section! So much urge to spend money.

Will be good to meet up and check out all the rides.

I'm not sure if the idea appeals to people, but I quite enjoy wrenching on cars with a few folks around (plus beer). I know my to do list is getting longer (injectors, coolant flush, fmic, dp's and charge pipe), so if anyone is ever keen to meet up to work on their car I would be keen to arrange something. I have an OK setup at my place, or we can rent out a shop with a lift for the day?

Nope... but the car has changed hands a couple of times in recent years (think I am the car's 4th owner) and I do think it was in the hands of an enthusiast around 2015, as it was being taken to Galvsport around that time.

Hey, I'm in Perth and relatively new to the BMW scene. I haven't been to any events yet but would like to meet up with you guys to swap info and check out what you've all done to your cars. I've got a 2009 335i, fairly modded up which I bought stock about 18months ago. It came from Qld so new to Perth. So I'm keen on a meet sometime. [IMG][/IMG]

So July is pretty much over..

How does Saturday August 18th work? How do people feel about an arvo/evening cruise? Or is the morning preferred?

Thinking we could all meet somewhere with decent parking space, ogle all the nice cars, then head off for a decent length cruise. Depending on the time of day, we could start or finish somewhere for a meal and/or cold beverage.

Open to literally anything, so if you know of a good meet spot or a good cruise location then post them up!

Pretty sure there are bonus points on offer if you provide google maps links...

Happy Tuesday!

Craig

Looks mean! Should be a nice selection of modified cars coming along. And a wagon...

18th and Crown meetup suits me, I can do any time and am pretty open to anything!

Just throwing some ideas out there:

Performance/spirited driving roads all within proximity of each other - Cathedral Ave, Campersic, O'Brien, and Berry rds... best to go out at evening/night (despite kangaroos) as there's no other road users and cyclists out and about. Guess this would really depend on the sort of cars that are coming out.

Otherwise a morning/arvo friendly coastal cruise up West Coast Dr or down Canning or Stirling Hwy would make for good photo opportunities and a social feed.

Yep both good ideas and I'm happy with either.

I do like the idea of some fun around Obriens and the like, so if no one has objections shall we lock that in?

What if we did a mid arvo meet/photo op, then a couple of hours cruise?

Also gives time for a nice wash beforehand. Might even wash the car too....

I have two hand held CB radios which are a huge help, so if anyone has any bring them along.

How does this work..

Sat 18th. 3pm casino car park (just off Victoria Park drive, in front of Burswood Park Board Offices per google maps).

Check out the cars for a bit then head to Obriens, berry Rd etc?

Let's get a list together for catering purposes...
