Monterey Weekend Few E90, 92's or 93's

Montoya · 08-16-2009, 01:05 AM

Hi guys. Spending the weekend in Monterey at Laguna Seca. We have been to the Concorso and the BMW Concours. Very strange lack of the new M3's... like I have seen three other the whole weekend- exactly the number of Carrera GT's we've seen- strange.... There must be more, but they aren't in the BMW corrals at the various venues. Kinda feel lonely....

I'll post some picks in about a week. Very cool weekend as usual with more exotics than you can shake a stick at.

Isn't Monterey more about classic cars though? that might explain why.

I wanted to make it out since it is only a few miles away from my home, but I've only been able to make it to the concours on Friday. Maybe I'll try and stop by today.

Yes, but every type of exotic new to old is here. Usually a better representation of M3's. So far this weekend I have seen the new Panamerica (launch event here), the new GT3, Ferrari California, Bugatti's. lambo's gallore etc. Hey, we even camped next to the Dunkel Brothers with a yellow Carrera GT. Porsche was the featured marque, and we got to drive my friends 911 on the track today for the parade laps. We got to take the corkscrew at speed- very cool!!

Just left the track, headed home now. Like I said we will post picks in about a week.

Yes, I was in the BMW corral at the Italiano from about 10 until 1:00 and then at the BMW Club Concours from 1:00 until 3:00.
