Makes meets alot of fun, to be sure! Someone always shows up that makes the jaw drop (We had a M5 stop in, and at least a dozen M3's of E36/E46 make, not to mention many highly modified 3 series to boot).
Atlanta is certainly a BMW city, if I've ever seen one. Only places with more that I've been to is South Cali, and Las Vegas (And only on the strip at that..).
We had twice the turnout as this one back in February when we also met up with the local Audi fellas for a meet. About 30-35 bimmers, and 15-20 Audi's. It was a german wonderland!![[:)]](/images/smilies/smile.png "Smile [:)]")

SON OF A B!TCH... second time in a row in the past half year!! how the hell do i keep on happening to be in atl for the weekend and i miss it AGAIN!
that doesnt look like north point, .... mall of ga maybe??
oh, jason, i agree, atl is loaded with bimmers - quite fitting for the type of lifestyle the atl area supports - especially the 100+ mph 10 mile stretch on GA400

You probably drove by us this time coming from Memphis - we met at Town Center Mall this time Saturday at noon (it's smack dab between 75 and 575 junction). The route took them up 575, over across to Helen, then back down some place called Wolfden Gap.
Yup Ga400 is happily nicknamed the Alpharetta Autobaun by some. Between the toll booth and exit 7 north, theres generally no law to be found, just craploads of traffic.. I got lucky this past Christmas, I took my Mom to the airport the weekend after christmas early Saturday morning, and was coming back north around.. 7am or so. NO traffic, I had never seen it so desolete. I stuck it to 110 for a good while, was great to finally get to unwind it a little.

but nonetheless would love to meet up...
i was there also, but i went on the drive. it was a great time. it was the first meet/drive i have been on and everyone was very friendly and helpful. at one point i was going 110+ and got passed by a s8 like i was tied down.it was raining and i was one of the slower guys out there and gave the folks the option to go by. but none of them seemed to care.
If they do another drive this Sunday, I might be able to go this time..
I can't believe I didn't bump into you, but I think I know who you were there now. I was the guy wearing the red shirt with an 8 on it (Figured that'd help identify me).![[;)]](/images/smilies/wink.png "Wink [;)]")
Is your entire interior poplar wood? That was really sweet on the dash! Got any interior photos? (I only got the passenger side, and didn't want to be too nosy and stick my head in).
I'd be trailing you probably, it's good to know there's more cars my speed, with all the M's out there (including the S8, geeeez), it was an impressive lineup.
Interesting E36 M w/ SC for sale.. Did you catch that when he revved the crap outta it in the parking lot? I thought a jumbo jet was about to touch down!

Ok, see I thought maybe you were the other e36 325i that rolled up late, they didn't really get out of their car much, so I didn't get a chance to have a photo op.
Ali's dakar M3 is indeed sick, I love the yellow odometer work he did in it.. Can't wait for another meet, when we meet at perimeter more folks show up..
