Hey Any California Crossfireforum Members Want To Meet At The 2006 La Auto Show The 1st Weekend Sat is the 7th? We Could Hook-up For A short drive after!

I'm Planning On Sat.Jan.7th2006 early Morning.How's Mel's dinner on Sunset Blvd or ?This thread was started last January!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!05

 

I'm planning to go but I think the weekend will be crazy crowded!
Maybe next week after work. I work in the white "wedding cake" looking high rise 3 blocks away. Super simple for me to pop in.
Let me know about the hook up. I'm just stock for now.
I'm getting new wheels. They should be here next weekend around 1/14/05.

 

Because of the weather here I'm going nuts Rain, rain and more fricking rain, I might go early before playoffs start. Still watching traffic reports for mudslides I always take the coast from here. Might try after the rain.

What time should I have the LIMO pick you up!

 

Dan:

Would love to meet you guys, but this weather SUCKS... So, I might have to spend the weekend in jail...

 

I went first thing Sunday morning. Left the show around 3:00. It was sooooo packed when we left! Saw the Crossfire SRT6 roadster & other Crossfires. People were gathered around them. The looked like they were a hit.

... It's a good thing we didn't do a hook up along the coastal route. Some guy skid off the highway, went over the embankment & crashed into the rocks 20 feet below at the surf (Malibu/Palisades area). Pretty sad. There were 5 people in the car. 4 people got out & 1 perished. Traffic was a mess.

On a lighter note... the show was decent. Not as big as I thought it was going to be. Same size as years past.

I think the best part was the concept cars.

 

I went Sat. early 10 am wasn't too crowded until the afternoon when I left about 3 pm.

I posted pictures that I took with my cell phone.

 

Thanks for the pics. We saw all the same concepts at the San Diego Auto Show. I guess they just moved them up the coast. I felt bad about missing the LA show again, but not so bad when I saw the pics. I do wonder why the manufacturers use the 2004 Detroit Concept cars in a 2005 show on the West Coast. I know Detroit is home to most of the manufacturers and they like to show concepts there first, but by the time they make it to the West, we have all seen and/or read about them in almost all the car mags. I wish they would consider the size of the market and bring those concepts to California first!

Regards,
Chris

 

Well even though I've gone WE could still make Hook-up there when the weather clears!

 

I am watching the weather there, too. Getting ready to snow in Denver. Might be time to head West, again.

 

alot of the '05 concepts tend to come over to l.a. this weekend. i'll be there early sunday morning, gotta watch the playoffs.

 

Good idea, HOW ABOUT A HOOK -UP AT HOOTERS IN Santa Monica? After?

They have nice SETS there!

 

SO?

Did you guys do it?

 

OK, when is the show this year? San Diego's starts 12/28. LA is usually right after.

 

I'll check and see it's the 6th-15th of January anyone want to hook-up and see the show too! Saturday or Sunday would be great the 7th or 8th! Email me at: Danielcroot@aol.com or just post on either this thread or X'ed on LA Auto show!!!

 

7th is the best for me if it is on.

 

I'll make the drive if you guys are going to have one, providing the roads are dry (I have my Michelin Cups on the car still).

 

Three Xfires And Counting!

 

I am coming up from San Diego. Need to set a time/place if we are going to meet.
Chris
