Pics from the Vancouver meet tonight
We've had Wakeech, Julian, Inconsequential, fietguy.... sorry we missed you Hitman, maybe next time~
We went from PNE to broadway and then through robson downtown and S2S to Murrin Point. Here's some pics I took with my camera, more to come from Wakeech :D
EDIT: Oh and next time, we're gonna try a line up of 8s with all doors opened and a picture shot through all of them
and perhaps find a place next to building to give us a birdseye view of 8s parked in a rotary symbol :D
and Julian's black 8 just made me a believer of zaino
ops, sorry I forgot your screen name Julian!

hehe, its all good, it was JY-8 that made it, we also saw and honked at another titanium 8 while driving on robson, and I finally saw another blue out here other than my own, and yes, he did wave
was nice to see another with this color, but at same time, made me feel less unique, hehe

Hey Fietguy, this I have to say, when your gf was driving, damn, she drives fast man, fast lane changer, hehe
and Titus, how dare you let me get stuck behind that damn mercedes, hehe... I was on your tail the whole way, until I got stuck behind that slow thing.
Great seeing all of yas today, if the trend continues, the next will have even more cars, and slowly, it will grow each time, hehe

Wow great share everyone. Beautiful pictures and I love the idea of taking a picture 'thru' a set of multiple open doors next time. I bet you folks had a terrific time and please, keep those pictures coming for the rest of us!

P.S. Wakeech, did you get any more practice driving the 8? I hope you did. I know that each time will be better and more fun...

yea I'm tempted to do that....
anyone know what's the fine for not having a front plate? maybe I'll risk it and say "it was like that form the dealer" to the cop :D

Did anyone else notice when we left the parking place after dinner, that there were a lot of nice cars down there other than just us? the "rice" prelude, porsche, sti, just to name a few I saw in there, still, need more next time, and yes, when we do it again, if a friend has a mazda, they can bring too, so mazda 3 is allowed to come and join us, hehe
