Today, spotted a Jet black E92 on 407/427 with the following plates: "BMW PWR"

The guy was not even speeding, probably doing like 110-120kph. I couldn't stay on his tail forever so I got up to my usual speed...140ish.

Just spotted a Space Gray/Fox Red E92 M3, followed him on Woodbine turning left onto Denison. Car looked awesome too, was riding on the stock 18s and had a black front grille, painted front lip spoiler, and carbon fiber diffuser... with all those mods I figure the guy has to be on M3post!

I think it might be - I think I remember seeing pics of a members car outffitted like that, but it had aftermarket summers which would make sense for stock 18s for winter.

Saw an AW/FR E90 M3 at the Shipp buildings (bloor and islington) underground this morning, Mississauga BMW place covers, OEM Winter tire package. Nice and clean too!

Spotted another one in my neighbourhood, seems like one of many in the last few weeks. White E92 M3 (carbon fibre roof) with M5 replica winter rims parked on Queen just west of Broadview. Didn't get a good look but appeared to be stock other than the rims.

Darklord spotted?

Spotted a SSII E90 last night (Thursday) parked on Queen West by the Drake. I think it has Downtown BMW plates. Was that you Darklord?

Nope...I have been downtown a couple times this week but wasn't me...I bought me beast from T & C...

On another note; we should plan an informal get together...perhaps at a starbucks mid-town or better in Richmond Hill...just to get out of the winter blues

I am in. Pick a SB with lots of safe parking!

I am out of town Monday afternoon through Friday night. I can do an afternoon this Saturday or Sunday (clear roads is a plus but short notice) or next Saturday or Sunday afternoon as well.

I am in the Bahamas next week; how about at the Starbucks in Richmond hill (Hightech & Bayview) on the 28th of Feb...I prefer mornings if that works...like 9ish??? LOTS of parking and pretty easy to get to.

I'd be in for a quick meet as well next weekend... but mornings are no good for me as I usually sleep in.

If you want to make it closer to downtown and later I'm good though.

Just got back into town after being away for a week...I think it is the longest time I have gone without driving my M since I bought it.

Anyways, spotted 2 M3's this afternoon at the Whole Foods / Starbucks at Trafalgar and QEW in Oakville. First one was an AW E93 with tinted windows, black leather with aluminum trim. It also had a chrome BMW license plate protector.

Second was a black E90 with Black wheels (BBS style) and BMW Waterloo plates, which I spotted again about an hour later at the Starbucks drive-thru at Trafalgar and Dundas (I was just passing by...not even I drink that much coffee).

Anyone here?

Spotted a Space Gray E92 on Tuesday morning NB on York Street at Wellington just before 8am. It was moving so I wasn't able to pick much more out than that.

Also, spotted a AW E93 last night EB on King West. At first I thought it was SlammedM3 but as I was passing him I realized I could see into the car so I don't think the tint was dark enough.

Seen a large number of cars lately so hoping to meet a few new members on Sunday! Any ideas for some spring drives? I would love to do a drive in April or May up through Haliburton / Algonquin park.

algonquin would be a lot better in the fall I think...just too many damn bugs splattering on your car spring/summer!

I have a cottage up that way, and I hate the bugs especially in the spring

I think there are some better bug free drives to be had in the hamilton/niagra escarpment area that time of year....

Shit nowhere is good to go in Ontario!I used to do the Algonquin route on my bike and there are way too many cops these days to go quick with the draconian attitude towards speeders in this province.That is why I go to Tennessee & North Carolina twice a year to drive & ride.Great pavement & very little traffic during the week and not a straight road to be found

I have also done some drives in Vermont (lots of mountain passes) and Northern NY. This can easily been done on a normal weekend trip, leaving on a Friday night. Does anyone have a list of what states share tickets with Ontario? I think NY and Penn do, but I think Vermont and some of the other states are okay.

I assume if you go down to Tennessee & NC you have done the tail of the dragon? I know there are lots of great drives there, and that one sounds great, but maybe too busy now. Love to pick your brain on your favourite drives...perhaps tomorrow if you are there.

Been going down there for about 15 years as we have friends from Burlington who have a cabin located about 45 minutes from HWY 129,All the roads are great in that whole area and the"Dragon" is not the only great place to go & do some corner carving.There are a lot of people from the GTA that go there a few times a year to enjoy the area as it is about 12-13 hours from here.A friend of mine from here manages the store @ Deals Gap and is at the centre of Mecca for biking enthusiasts and a great place to hang out and watch the eclectic goings on of both bikes & cars.
