We have received several emails about the web link not working. At this time we have pulled the website down temporarily as the organizer we had for the event has pulled out.

Hello Everyone:

Our first Miami event is now over. The day started off at area 7:00am for the staff who cordoned off the parking area in front of Pizza PIOLA. The first cars arrived at 0900, with several more joining soon after. Jorge was in charge of directing parking, while Oscar and his Team were in position for snapshots of all the attending cars.

By 11:00am we had a nice display with 4 Ferraris (360, 430, 612 Scaglietti and 308QV), 2 Lamborghinis (Diablo and Gallardo), Ford GT-40, Porsches, 1 Bentley Convertible, Acura NSX, AUDI’s, BMW’s, Lotus Elise, and a few sport bikes to cap off the list.

It was a rather hot day of (88+F), but there was still a great showing for our first ever event. The majority of the group gathered for lunch at Pizza PIOLA where they enjoyed chatting with fellow gear heads. After lunch the group drove to Hollywood Marina for a great photoshoot. Several of the cars are now the highlight header images for EuroSunday Miami.

We like to thank everyone who participated in our first event in Miami area. We welcome your feed back to continue to improve the event. Please send your comments and suggestions to events@eurosunday.net

Thank you

Next EuroSUnday will be 3/30/08.

EuroSunday’s main event for March has been changed to Sunday 3/30/08.This change is because the original date of 3/23/08 is Easter Sunday (My useless knowledge- Easter falls on the first Sunday following the first full moon that occurs on or after the day of the vernal equinox; the vernal equinox is fixed as March 21. There are some highly technical rules for determining the actual date of the full moon, but when you take all this into account the result is that Easter can never occur before March 22 or later than April 25 and will not be celebrated this early in the year for another 220 years)

All the usual EuroSunday event activities will be taking place (including the Breakfast Club), but all will happen on 3/30/08 at the TGI Friday's on 14891 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL, 33181 in Miami.

Breakfast club – 9:00am – 11:00am for those who want to talk cars before the event.
Main event – 11:00an – 1:30pm – Drive and photo shoot afterwards.

We apologize for the change in dates but we want to make sure we had all of our team available to direct cars and take some great photos at the event.

The EuroSunday team has been working hard to contact all the exotic, rare and vintage Euro car owners in the surrounding area. The turn out for this month’s event should have a great mix of cars. We have also taken all the feedback from everyone and have incorporated it this month’s event.

Please continue to help spread the word about the event as this is an all volunteer effort for every event.

We also like to thank Eric T. for being the new East Coast Director for all EuroSunday events on the east coast.

See you at the event =)

The Bimmers Have it
30. April 2008Event



The third installment of EuroSunday was yet again another success. Arriving at 5 minutes to 10 at the nearby gas station to full up, I have an encounter with my first Bimmer. Noticing the carbon fiber trunk, I immediately assume it is here for EuroSunday. After a short conversation with the owner, however, the encounter is purely coincidental–I asked if he, the owner, is here for EuroSunday. Instead of an enthusiastic YES!, I get a questioning look. “What’s EuroSunday?” With a big grin on my face, I fill him in on the event he happened to stumble upon. Excited, he lets me know he’d be back to check it out. Little did I know 3 quarters of the cars that would show up were bimmers! And mostly all M’s at that!



A modified E60 BMW M5, an E39 M5, a plethora of M3’s [no less than 9 of them all modified in one way or another], a white Z4 M Roadster and an M3 CSL conversion were just a few of the bimmers that showed up. It was almost as if this were a bimmer meet-up. Luckily, a pair of classic 70’s mint condition Triumphs, a few late model Audi’s, a Jaguar S-type R, a silver W210 Mercedes-Benz AMG E55, a white Porsche GT3, a Porsche Carrera convertible, and a yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera sprinkled the field of Euro’s. What a sweet turnout! I immediately greeted the drivers and took out my camera to capture the moment. After a few hours of conversation and photography, low and behold the modified bimmer with the carbon fiber trunk showed up. The owner was pleasantly surprised that he stopped for gas that morning and pledged he’d be a regular at future EuroSunday’s.



The plan was to drive south to Speed Demons while along the way we would stop and meet-up with some Mini’s. Being that only a few had planned to go carting, the opportunity to hit the pit lanes at Homestead Miami Speedway seemed like a bit more fun. There was a Porsche/Mini event being held at the track which provided for some awesome photography. Look for some planned track events for EuroSunday in the near future. I, personally, can’t wait…

EuroSunday Miami Recap:

Waking up in South Florida to a beautiful beach day is something else. Waking up on a Sunday in anticipation for EuroSunday is a beautiful day in an entirely different league. Once a month 15 to 20 fathers, sons, brothers, girlfriends, and plenty of car lovers, strap in and settle into their freshly cleaned European steed Sunday morning. Having washed the car the night before or waking up at the crack of dawn the day of, there is nothing more gratifying for an enthusiast than to turn the ignition and blip the throttle on a freshly cleaned euro-exotic. We’re ready for EuroSunday!

This past Memorial weekend, euro car enthusiasts made their way to the meet-up at the Miramar Starbucks. Audi, BMW, Porsche, Lotus, Volkswagen, and Mini were all represented. We’ve had more monikers show up before; however, there was substantial variety in the motley crew that was present.

A modified BMW E30 M3, BMW E36 M3, BMW E39 M5, BMW E46 M3 CSL Conversion, BMW Z4 M, BMW E90 330i, BMW E90 twin-turbo 335i, B5 Audi S4, B6 Audi S4, B7 Audi A4, VW MKI Jetta!!, a pair of VW MKV GTI, VW MKV Jetta, VW MKV Fahrenheit, VW MKV R32, hot red Lotus Elise, Dinan Mini and a Porsche 997 with plenty of GT3 goodies (hope I didn’t forget anyone). The turnout for the memorial weekend EuroSunday was surprisingly active. It was good to see some of you regulars, and even better to see new faces out there joining this pretty elite club.

The highlight of my day was Car of the Month, Jon Silverman’s very clean white E30 M3 with too-many-to-list modifications. I especially enjoyed reading up on this well-documented bimmer, including a few paragraphs on the history of BMW’s first M3.

The red Audi B5 S4 twin turbo is also worth mentioning. A brand new Brembo BBK (Big Brake Kit) with cross-drilled rotors was a new addition since the last time I saw this car. Champion Motorsport Porsche wheels with adaptors for fitment looked right at home on the Audi. Under the bonnet, carbon fiber engine covers and high pressure boost hoses adorned the engine bay. Finishing off the rear were the dual Milltek exhaust tips sitting like they were stock.

Lastly, I would like to mention the MKI “rat-style” Jetta with the best looking drop of the day. How often does one get to see an oldie but a goodie? This project car’s life has just begun…or not!?
