i was going to go with my friend with his 330, but since we both had to work, we didn't go, kinda sad about it. oh well, so when are the Lexuses going to have a meet like that., hehe, , the next closest meet that's big like that for us is the EOS out here in CA.

No, because he would be too busy to show up

I love going to Bimmerfest!! It's waking up that's hard.

There were plenty of other makes there. I remember seeing a S2000, Ford GT, EVO. I know there were more, just can't remember. I'll make sure to drive the Lexus next year. Met lots of great people there, but there is also lots of idiots there, and they wonder WHY they get so much crap from CHP.

Sorry pictures are so big!!

Here is a couple I uploaded so far.

Lexfest is BIG, ..........Bimmerfest is HUGE. The Bimmer crew really represent when it comes meet time.

As one that organizes events with SELOC and here with CL, I cannot imagine how pooped the planenrs are. The logistics must be nutty! Wow, I am very impressed.

What a great showing of BMWs.
