The Charlotte Auto Show will be in town 11/17 through 11/20.
This will be the first time for a MINI display at the Auto Show.

Maybe we can go as group on Saturday the 19th and do a meal uptown and go to the Auto Show together.

UPDATE

Here is the plan for Saturday Nov 19th.

We will meet at in the parking lot on the back side of the Convention Center. The parking lot is located on South Brevard St between East Second St and East Stonewall St.

Let's meet about 3:00 PM and we will board the Charlotte trolley at the Convention Center stop at 3:42 PM and take the short ride to 6th St and eat at Brixx Pizza.

We will get back on the Charlotte trolley at 5:26 PM for the short ride back to the convention center.

Once back at the Charlotte Convention Center we can go to the International Auto show together and check out the MINI display and all the other cars.

I will start a list here. I hope you can join us.

Sounds like a great idea! I don't know what is going on that weekend on the homefront, but I will pencil in that weekend to attend. It would be great to get together as a group and drive up there together. With all of your connections George, maybe you can hook us up with a front row parking space!

Dave

 

I'm a definite.

Thanks for the post!

 

George, sounds like fun. I'll definitely consider it. Thanks for the post.

Eric

 

Now that sounds like a good time. Barring un foreseen circumstances I should be there. Let me know if its a go.

I've always wanted to go to this show.
Even cooler with a MINI in it.
I'm in.

 

This sounds like an event.

There is a large parking lot next to the Convention Center at S.Brevard and Stonewall. It cost $5.00, but is a safe place for the MINIs. I will see if there is any deal I can get for us on parking there. Parking is at a premium in uptown Charlotte.

Maybe we could park then ride the trolley up to Brixx Wood Fired Pizza.

We could have our meal then ride the trolley back and go to the AutoShow. If we wanted a longer trolley ride we could go to Atherton Mills and eat.

The trolley also has a stop inside the Convention Center.

Just some ideas, let me know what you think.

hey that sound like a great idea. I just may meet you all there

 

Please check out post #1 for an update on plans for Saturday Nov 19th.

We will be doing an early dinner and going to the Auto Show together.

Please post if you can make it and will add you to the list.

Thanks
George

 

George,

Since I will already be there working at the show, I'm up for dinner so put me down. So you're planning on coming BACK to the show after your work shift?

Eric

 

Eric

I have added you to the list.

I wanted to come back to the Auto Show and look at all the other cars.:smile:

 

Count me in as a real strong tentative. The way things look, I should be able to make it for the dinner, if nothing else.

 

Place me on the attending list with fingers crossed that my schedule doesn't get changed. As it stands as of right now, I'm not scheduled to work Saturday...

 

I wish I could go to this one. I'm a new member and I have to pass this time relatives coming in. Hope to catch up next time. WendyWoohoo

Welcome to M2C2.

Sorry that you will miss this one. Please keep watching the forum for upcoming events.

We are having dinner at Quaker Stake and Lube tonight and we have a drive and lunch on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

 

I will be there if I can get directions on how to get there. I will be coming up I26 from Columbia.

I am glad you can join us. It will be good to see you again.

I have sent you a PM with directions and my cell number.

Thanks
George

 

Great seeing everyone last night. I must admit that was some of the best pizza I've ever had! Hope to see everyone again at the Zentrum in December.

 

Thanks to everyone that joined us in the parking lot and at Brixx.
