EDIT: The March event is postponed. Tentatively let's look at the April Cars & Coffee Williamsburg!!
________________________________
A group of us are planning a meet up on March 18th in Williamsburg, VA. There's a Williamsburg Cars & Coffee scheduled for that date starting at 9am at the Five Guys located on 1430 Richmond Rd Bldg 5, Ste 505, Williamsburg, VA. Our loose plan is to find a spot to meet up before hand, roll in to the C&C together, leave from there and go on a drive down the Colonial Parkway (a cool, scenic drive for those that have never been... but not a high speed run), and then grab lunch at Pierce's BBQ. We're organizing it for G8X owners, but figure we can open it up to all M's that want to join us.

This can be the planning thread for that event, and I'll update this first post as new details are made.

Attendees:
1. vbb
2. Fish22
3. Shawn_M3
4. MH0W996
5. JDUNITNOW
6. Khalua80
7. DANROD
8. V8MAN

[FISH22]

Nice! Looking forward to this.

[Shawn_M3 2023]

Thanks for organizing!

I’m in!

[vbb]

I pulled some names from the other thread to post on here as well just to keep things in one spot. I don't have Facebook, but if any of you are aware of local M owners on there that may not post here that often, feel free to direct them to the thread or tell them about it.

[MHOW996]

Looking forward to this!! Thanks everyone for the commitment. A great way to start Spring...........

[V8MAN]

I am hoping to pickup my M3 at PCD the week of 3/6 (finally!!), if all goes as planned would love to do this and meet some of you guys.

Nice! I'll put you on the list and I hope your car comes in soon enough for you to bring it out!

[JDUNITNOW]

Definitely count me in. I. Ant wait to see all of the G80's at one time. For the longest time, I never saw another G80 until Khaula80 got his car. Can't wait to see the different colors and different mods. I may regret this and have to pull out the credit card but what the hell, you only live once.🤣🍸

[CaptBoaty]

Count me in for the meet up.


VBB, was that you I saw at the Beach? I was driving the frozen white M3.

Actuality, it was me.

Your car looked damn good!

[vbb]

I never see random G8X on the road, but it looks like we have two Frozen brilliant white over Yas G80s and two BSM over Fiona G82s in the area and posting on here. Kinda funny!

Besides MHOW996’s, I have only seen a Davit Grey G80 on 564.

Hopefully you will see mine on the 18th. I've seen IOMG, Black, Tanzanite Blue.

We're going to keep an eye on the weather for this Williamsburg meet. If it is raining, perhaps we will reschedule it to the next C&C in April, but for now things are still on for March 18th!

[Shawn_M3 2023]

Alright, so assuming the weather is good on Saturday, where are we meeting and what time?

Do the Richmond folks wanna try to sync up and all drive there together? JDUNITNOW khalua80

[FISH22]

Unfortunately I’ll likely have to pass on this event. Some stuff just came up.

It looks as if it was canceled due to fish22 having another appointment. Do you all want to do something for richmond or we can still see if a group from that area will meet up.

[vbb]

I don't think Pete (Fish22) meant for the whole thing to get cancelled because he can't attend, but the weather forecast definitely isn't in our favor. I've been watching all week hoping it would shift, but it seems like Saturday morning is going to be rainy with 20mph winds. I wouldn't be surprised if the C&C meet gets cancelled anyway, and honestly since most of us will be driving about an hour to attend, I was thinking maybe we shoot for another day? I'm not one of those guys that refuses to drive my car in the rain or anything, but the weather doesn't seem all that fun to stand around in.

I don't want to unilaterally cancel the event without input from others, but what are you all thinking? My vote is that we aim for April and hope for better weather.

I agree. The weather does not seem like it wants to cooperate. Plus I am still warming up from last weekend!

I agree postponing this until April is probably best with the forcasted weather out there.

Now weather in Richmond shows no rain, maybe Richmond guys hit up C&C here?
