Looks like there will be ample discussion around coding, clear-bra, opticoating, exhausts, dashcams, and anything else your heart desires

edit:

There will ALSO be a smaller get-together on Saturday April 11, 2015 around 5:00 PM at Oakbrook Terrace at the mall

may be in. dont love the location. the city sounds like needless wheel endangerment haha

Having it at a forest preserve is a much better option IMO. Big Meat last year was excellent. Good location, lots of room, etc.

DUI Elite · 03-10-2015, 03:41 PM

Yeah the location is definitely not firm. I think the general plan was to go to Burnham Harbor (very good venue still near the city).

Big Meat is usually in August, so I think this is just a good spring opening meet to kick off the car season.

i second this. the outskirts of the city always seem to work better for a bunch of different reasons

Game · 03-10-2015, 05:31 PM

Could be cool depending on weather.

I definitely want to attend some sort of meetup. I'm new to the BMW scene, and would like to meet some Chicagoland people who also own E90s to get their opinions, good or not. :-)

If you're in Valpo, let me know if you decide to cruise up. I'm in Munster.

jlombar5 · 03-16-2015, 03:25 PM

any update?

sirdaft1 · 03-16-2015, 04:20 PM

If more of the E90post guys prefer to meet in the burbs, let's just setup our own suburb meet. We can discuss the wonders of wastegate rattle and turbo inlet performance gains... The kind of content those f80 guys won't understand :-)

Game · 03-16-2015, 04:43 PM

I have my summer wheels on, meaning I'm down for whatever!

Where do we want to meet up? Perhaps around the Oakbrook Terrace area?? I know there's a Champps, Portillos and a bunch of other good spots.

J-Spec Dan · 03-17-2015, 09:31 AM

preferably a location that has good photo spots

gary88 · 03-17-2015, 09:44 AM

In for meat.

Burnham harbor is cool except for all the speed bumps going to the parking lot. I'd also be down for somewhere like Palos forest preserve, someone could actually bring a grill too.

giovanniv · 03-17-2015, 08:06 PM

I'd be in to meet up, I am in the Matteson/Frankfort location but commute to the burbs daily

DUI Elite · 03-17-2015, 09:23 PM

Any of you guys interested in coming out to the weekly Chitown M meet (in Schaumburg this week) this Wednesday (3/18/2015)?

Its at Fuddruckers this week on Golf Road in case anyone wants to show up.

We can definitely talk it over more and possibly arrange something for the E90 guys. I would be down for that as well.
