Any Southeast Michigan Z's?

This area of the forum doesn't seem to be very active so I thought I'd start a thread to see if there are any Z's out here in Michigan.

I decided not to sell my 07 M Roadster, thanks to a lot of factors including a few forum lurkers who convinced me not to sell it. I'm getting ready for spring and would love to get a group together for a spring drive around town.

A few enthusiasts got together late last summer and had a heck of a drive - we had a several hour gathering with a group that started out around 25-30 at the start of the day. We ended up somewhere around 15-20 by day's end and had pizza and sodas while we exchanged stories of the day.

It was a bit tricky for me but I took photos of the whole event too. Maybe next time, I won't be driving and can do a better job with the pics. I'd rather drive to tell you the truth.

Anway, if you're from SE MI and want to say 'hello' to check in and gage interest with me on a gathering, I think it would be a lot of fun!

Yeah, unfortunately Zpost is the redheaded stepchild of the Bimmerpost forums; plus Michigan just doesn't seem to have a strong presence on the BMW forums to begin with.
Good call on keeping the M. In another month or so you'll get behind the wheel and realize you made the right choice - that's what I keep telling myself as I make the payments all winter

I just moved back to Michigan (spent the past 3 years in sunny Arizona), and know James and Beau (from E90post) from before I left... so I'm down to get back in the local scene. Trust me, in another month or so I'll be pushing to get a meet going; and would like to initiate something like Cars&Coffee here in Metro-Detroit.
We need a monthly Euro car meet in the spring/summer/fall!

Speaking of meets...

Some of us on Bimmerforums.com are trying to initiate a Detroit: Cars & Coffee.
Here's the original discussion.

Where: SW corner of 15 Mile & Coolidge, in Troy
When: 1st Saturday of every month - beginning April 3rd, 2010
Time: 8am-11:30am(ish)
Who: Everyone and anyone (though we're trying to gear it towards the Euro car owners)

Feel free to repost the info and spread the word!

There's now a Facebook page for the event to keep up with all the info.

Seems like word is spreading around the Euro/exotic community, so hopefully this'll become a great monthly event!

I'm in southwest Michigan. I see a few Zed's around but they must not hang out here!

All I see around town are Z3s, or bone stock Z4s. Don't think I've seen another Z4M besides my dad's roadster.
