Any Philly People?

Anyone going to the E30 picnic this weekend?

[Aleman]

I've seen the events for a while, but always wondered if they feel pretentious. I also don't wanna feel completely out of place next to something like a 2023 $200k car.
I'm in the burbs, Malvern PA btw if anyone is near me.

Most of the cars at the Main Line c&c are not high-dollar exotics. The organizers use pics of those rides to draw attention on FB, but you'll see plenty of normal cars, like Miatas & E30's and some weird stuff like Citroens. Best part, if you miss one month, you can catch it next month. They've moved to a place in Bala Cynwyd which is very close to home for me. I took the pics below at the August '23 meet.

My cars almost in fighting form for the summer. I'll start turning up to some c&c and annoying the guys with the $200k new cars because they'll never be as fun as an e30. Make sure you guys all save July 20th for the e30 picnic. It's a damn good time and worth the drive just for all the give aways. The prize to attendence ratio is great.

I've been trying to get the Picnic East for a few years, but it always happens while I'm out of town on family vacations. Maybe this year I can make it!

There are always 3 to 6 E30's at the monthly Main Line Cars & Coffee

Great pic Kyle.

Good to see some other E30s on Saturday morning.

If any of you guys want the original I can email it. The quality is lowered when it's hosted on r3v. Just in case you were gonna make a poster or something.

My buddy is editing photos from the cars and coffee. This is the only one he gave me so far. It was a good time though.

I just finished buttoning up my washer fluid spray system and washed the car (but had to park under a tree tonight).

I'm dropping off my wife in Trenton about 8am, then I'll drive over to the meet. I'll probably get there a little before 9, so I'll see where that leaves me for parking.

[Swoozley Macklin]

Checking in, i don't go to a lot of the local meets/events though.

[McGyver]

Ok cool I'll look out for you. My photographer buddy is coming too so make sure you got a nice shine on your paint.

Lol, it looks fine from 20 feet away, it needs some dent repair and a full respray. Once I move into my house with a garage, I'll experiment with wet sanding through the damaged top coat (which is probably an old respray)

I definitely enjoy a spirited drive from time to time, but the current car is a little too low for how bad the roads are around here. Plus, its more of a cruiser than something set up for serious driving.

I was thinking more about meeting up nearby and then driving over to C&C together so we could all park together. That being said, I have to drop off my wife in Trenton to catch the train to NYC around 8-ish on saturday, so I'll probably get there around 8:30-9ish. I definitely plan to show up with the e30 though.

Hah I'm no good for a cruise this weekend unfortunately, got a nephew's bday party at noon that's why I'm gonna do the c&c early. We should set up a drive to the reading pagoda or the tail of the dragon one weekend soon. There both not far from Philly, and yeah I don't wanna drive too crazy on a cruise. My e30 isn't a cream puff but it's all I got.

I’m a 1 HR drive from Philly. I’d be open to meeting up, but if going on a “cruise” means we’ll be driving hard (as I’ve learned from going on “cruise”s with my old college car club), I’ll pass. My E30 is a cream puff and I’d prefer to keep it in that condition for as long as possible
