Well that sucks. Congrats to your friend though!

Anyone else wanna show interest? Obviously, you're not obligated to take part in all the events and you don't have to go for both days....

Everyones welcome! The ClubLexus guys said that as long as the non-Lexus don't outnumber the Lexus, its all good! Partly because Woodfield Lexus is providing food and drinks.

now how come nobody can get fuckin McGrath or Pauly Acura to sponsor a fucking meet?

they make enough money ripping everyone off on their purchases... the least they could do is buy us all some fuckin hot dogs and sodas to make up for it.

unless anyone knows somebody at a dealership chances are slim of getting a meet sponsored by acura, or a dealership. i have driven by some meets at local spots and the turn out is not bad, i guess it does not matter who sponsors it if your a gear head.. so lets enjoy the few times we can get together and share a common bond, love for cars, in our case acura tl's...

Just an FYI, AZ meets in IL (at least the 2 that I've been to) are pretty weak compared to a Toyota/Scion dealership sponsored event I went to. Also, most Lexus meets have pretty good turnouts. Granted it was the same weekend as HIN. If we can consistantly have a good turn out, then MAYBE we can begin discussions with a dealership.

ClubLexus has a dedicated subforum for Chicago and many members in that section work at dealerships in the Chicagoland area... makes it a lot easier for them. Also making it easier for them to have successful meets.

Anyway, add your name to the list if you're interested in coming.

Yeah seems like Midwest AZers a little lazy when it comes to meets... understandable I guess. Not as many young Acura owners over here.

Still, we're a good crowd so it's nice to chill.

The ENTIRE planned event is by ClubLexus so theres nothing in this thread that only applies to AZ members. However, they have no issues with us tagging along so... feel free to take part in whichever part you want to.

Good taste in music, BTW

As long as no beaters show up We gotta represent Acura!

Accord right?


(could be a Pilot in which case that'd be a bit weird)

^ Haha well, I'm sure Tom and I are enough company... if you add Seth into the mix, it can get overwhelming!

Nah for real though, come thru. More is better. Have you done anything to your ride?

No front plate =
