Default S2000 Homecoming in Torrance, CA, Who's going?

Back-cracker
When: Saturday, September 8, 2007 10:00 am-3:00 pm

Where: American Honda Motor Co., Inc. in Torrance, CA

Who: Only S2000 owners will be admitted in their S2000's. You have to drive it to get in. Obviously only one additional guest per car, no trunk riders...please. Please don't show up in your minivan. I'd rather avoid the scene as you're turned away.

What: Everything is Free. Get to see the S2000 CR before it hits dealer lots. Our large parking lot will also fill up with S2000's of all types as owners arrive, creating possibly one of the biggest gatherings of S2000's in the US, dare I say ever. Lunch will be served (hot dogs, hamburgers, etc..nothing fancy). Some cool giveaways will also occur. We may also have some other cool cars on display!

How: Courtesy of American Honda Motor Co. and my impassioned presentation to management!

Anyone from the Carolinas going? I'm thinking about it.

Mazda does this for the rotart community, but because people are coming from all over the country you are able to get in without bringing your car.....It would be a pretty harsh ride for your S to drive it across the country TWICE!.. Maybe they should let the out of towners that show up bring their VIN # or some other type of proof. Anyone from hawaii would have to ship their car to make the event.

I've always wanted to make a cross country drive, after all, cars are made to be driven.

Sounds like lots of fun, but that is a LONG drive. They need to do the same event on the east coast.

I wish it wasn't in the middle of the semester, thus I have decided not to attend.

I've estimated about $600+ for fuel alone for a round trip. I think a cross country trip is a must for any driving enthusiast; at least once in your life. I just might do it once I graduate.
