SoCal Get Together

There was some talk here a few weeks ago about those of us in Southern California getting together but the conversation sorta petered out. So I'd like to suggest a get together and caravan from Laguna Beach up to Newport/Balboa. Anyone interested? Maybe July 30 - meet at the Ruby's south of Laguna Beach and cruise up PCH. How 'bout it?

Sorry, I never followed-up on any of that.

Is that drive more of a "cruise" or is there actually any fun in that road?

If there's "fun" in terms of speed, then count my speedy yellow box in!

That sounds great, you can count me in!

The drive is a cruise ride over a medium crowded road, but its a beautiful scene over the PCH.

Also, between Laguna and Newport on PCH is Crystal Cove. There is a shopping mall there (Trader Joes, Pier 1, Gap) where all the supercars convene every Saturday morning between 7am and 830am or so. I would suggest we meet there at around 8am and stack a row of Boxsters behind the Lambos and Ferraris!

I'm missing out. Still not a Boxster owner. Maybe I should rent a Z4 for the day and let you take turns blowing past me.

LOL, I'm just a newbie here and not such a good organizer, but would it be more impressive if all of us entered the Crystal Cove mall together? So perhaps we could meet somewhere else (like the Ruby's I mentioned) and then make a real entrance ensemble.

I'll suggest 7:30 AM Saturday, July 29th. What do you guys think?

Yes, it would just be a cruise up PCH with little chance to open up - although it seems to me there are some fun roads a bit inland, maybe around Newport Coast?

I like this idea a lot!

Can I bring a 911 as I don't currently have a Box!

My g/f may come, but she's about as much of a morning person as I am. :troll:

She'll think its will be a packed parking lot full of shiny cars anyways.
