Make sure to post it here. I'm going to try to make a day trip on Sunday.

Haha I had to represent the iX community! I was in love when I saw it there. The only iX I saw that weekend. But definitely we'll have to meet up sometime over the weekend. Too bad last year the stars didn't align, and I missed checking out your buddy's M3. :(

Any idea if Jake is coming this year?

I'll be at SP for the 3rd year in a row.

I should text him! He's usually there every yr. I randomly ran into him in the street last yr.

Will do! Who do you know from around here? We run a WNY fb group and know about everyone from Buffalo to Syracuse with an E30.

Count me in for whatever meet you guys get going!

Definitely! I know last year vwvortex had a huge thread of all the meets that went on. Haven't seen anything of the sorts yet.

I'm thinking about driving down from Maine. My car is pretty low, thats my only concern. Just doing a valve adjustment / oil change really before leaving. My car has never left me stranded. Drove from ME to NC last year in my old E30 which WAS unreliable, and made it there and back. I wouldn't be worried. Should be a fun time, and I hope to meet some R3v folks while I'm down there.

Keep an eye out, I'll be the E30 with Maine plates. ;)

That definitely gives me a lot more confidence going in! I'll definitely keep a look out for ya! I'm the white iX with NY "DirtyE30" plates.

Three months ago I made the epic cross-country voyage from Kentucky to California. Things to have: water, small metric tool kit, jack/lug wrench, extra coolant/engine oil/ATF, hard copy map, planned rest stops to inspect your car. I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple things but overall have fun and understand that if your e30 has been well cared for it'll bust out the road with ease. In Germany they engineer these cars to run on the autobahn and similar roads at high speeds for hours at end. Have fun!

Wuuuuuuuutttt. My plates are "DIRTY 30".




It will have wider wheels when you see it. Not on stock anymore. ;)

These were taken a week or so ago, right before I ripped my iS lip clean off.

Man, last year I drove the e30 from SFL to Ocean City without a hickup. If I had to do it again though I'd probably bring an extra fuel pump. I started to get a loud fuel pump whine about 1000 miles into the trip. Wouldn't hurt to have & you should be able to return it if you don't use it.

Other than that, some essentials IMO are: floor jack, jack stands, 3 gallons of water, tool bag, poncho incase you gotta work on the car and it's raining, 5 qts of oil, spark plugs, spare V belts, jumper cables, jb weld, spare light bulbs, duct tape, spare tire, and brake fluid.

I'm headed down with a group of 3 e30's and an e90. We are leaving around 4am on Wednesday morning. Staying on 56th.

Hope to see you guys out there!

DirtyE30s FTW!

And I hope to see everyone down there! I'll keep monitoring this thread if anyone wants to meet up!
