        I happen to be in GR Michigan right now but I live in CBus. Also wondering if Columbus is Midwest or Great Lakes....

        Check out ohiobimmers.com. Not a whole lot goes on here for cars, but we do love autocross and track days at Mid-Ohio.

              I'm in Columbus as well -- Welcome! And Nick S couldn't be more right.

              We should organize a small Columbus meet -- get to know our fellow (and local) e30 enthusiasts and r3vers.

                  Timmayfest is by far one of the best BMW shows in Columbus. They have it every year at Quaker Steak and Lube in Polaris. Just go to Timmayfest.com for all of the times and dates.

                      There's a really good Cars & Coffee in the Dayton area every other saturday.. Its not all bimmers sadly, but i have seen an e30 or two there, couple m5's and several newer bimmers. Its a really good turnout typically, one of the more better car events i've ever been to.

                            Not sure about Cleveland. There is a good street scene up there but there probably wont be to many e30's. The Columbus Cars and Coffee is nice and has a great turn out. I use to take my FD until my work schedule changed.
