My suggestion is that we meet up in north van and go for the mountains but i am not sure exactly which route for now. Hopefully some one will find out .... maybe the route to the top of cyprus mountain or gross (however u spell it the place people ski)

Oh Nooo!!! I'm soo sorry guys... something's come up and I can't make it up for this weekend anymore!

I promise one of these days I'll come up to meet y'all. Can I extend my rain cheque a little longer?

Congrats on the STi mate They're a gob full of fun and sound like heaven out of the box. I had a chance to drive my mates '07 STi and I have nothing bad to say about it. Enjoy it in good health.

I think we're better off going up cypress then grouse mountain because it have more scenery, and on the way up to cypress there's a place that overlook Vancouver. We could take some picture there..

if not we could go here, it's a pretty nice scenery drive along the coast.

My friend let me know that the Christening is delayed a few weeks (too many babies in their Church to do all in one day) so I can make it on Sunday.

Where in Oakridge are we meeting? Up on the roof? or in the lower levels?

My pictures all pretty much look the same as the ones posted already, I will go through them tonight and see if there any different ones.

Don't want to sound like a broken record but it did turned out to be a great meet considering the Z4's are being sold quicker then girl guide cookies.

How about a meet at Mission Raceways in July to see how fast our cars will go, any takers.

Sorry guys that I didn't make it to the meet. Some things unexpected came up, and it was literally a last minute decision for me to not drive up for the meet. Hopefully, I'll be able to join you guys next time.

its one amazing car to drive ... yes in the really right corners it isn't as delicate as a Z4M but out on da track it is hugely fun and hugely exciting and hugely easy to drive. This car just grips and grips and will never (i mean never) let go rain or dry. On the later half of the track day it poured with rain and for me it was piece of cake. I could follow the rwd cars on the track while listenning to radio. I actually lapped a 335 xi .... the bmw xi seemed useless compared to STI's four wheel drive.

After the wet track day i am in love with the car. I would seriously recommand it to anyone who want some practicality and common sense after getting bored with their Z4.... And i mean i am loving this car this much and it is still stock with a tune and some suspension work the STI will run rings around pretty much anything under the 100k mark. (beside GTR and Z06 i guess but GTR is basicly same formula with more computer gismo to make it faster and Z06 is just not livable on a daily basis)
