    Car Meets in NYC?

    Hey guys just wondering, are there any meet ups for us e30 guys around New York?
    I've had E30s for the past three years and never have I met a fellow person with an E30 to even befriend around here lol.
    Just wondering, it'd be cool to take drives out to Bear Mountain and others as a group. Just not sure if something like this already exists

    There's a couple! I feel the same way you do tho so I stopped driving my E30 for a while and started driving the E36, wdu know everyone drives a damn E36 lol.

    Where are you located? I live in Queens and work in LI.
    I know OMG Motorsports has hosted a couple of small gatherings I've never been able to make it to but he knows plenty of people with E30's. Good shop if you need work done as well.

        There's a lot more activity when Springtime hits. Lots of weekly meets on Long Island, Cars & Coffee on Sundays at Captree Park is a big one. There's a weekly meet in summer on Thursday nights in Glen Cove and then they all cruise to the late night meet at Home Depot parking lot in Westbury. Friday nights are big at Shake Shack near Roosevelt Field Mall.

        On bimmerforums we organize a few NYC get togethers but those are really for gratuitous drinking and hanging out, no cars are present.

          That's great! haha, I'm from Brooklyn, Williamsburg.
          I've heard of OMG motorsports but never been there or met them yet but I do plan on it! I'll try to have my eyes peeled for any meet ups from them I suppose!

            I'm definitely going to keep those places in mind. Took a picture for future reference, I definitely want to go out to a cars and coffee event once in a while. Is there a lot of people at the Glen Cove spot? I hate to say but I am a bit shy when it comes to meeting new people, especially when you drive up to a meet up you've never been at where everyone knows each other hahah, will try to come out there nonetheless

              The Glen Cove meet is fairly active, from there the BMW folks cruise to the Home Depot lot in Westbury. With my work schedule I can't make it to Glen Cove in time so I usually meet everyone in westbury, it goes from 9pm - midnight. It's a very relaxed meet at Home Depot, no parking lot shenanigans or gratuitous engine revving.

                I'm in BK Heights. Been thinking of organizing a drive up the Taconic to meet up with fellow E30 enthusiasts. One of them I bought wheels from last year. Plus, that's a fun drive.

                  +1 for OMG Motorsports. I'm hoping they put together a meet to celebrate their new location, still under construction. There was a really nice beach park meet they organized last summer with a big BBQ.

                    Cant help but chime in!

                    Hoping to do something cool this summer as well once we're up and running. Maybe a BBQ for the grand re-opening!

                      That is a VERY fun drive and depending how far up you go there's beautiful scenery as well. I've neglected my E30 since I bought my E36 M3, I'm gonna have to show her some love if these meets and drives are gonna get going!!

                        There is a good c&c every Sunday am in Yorktown heights and a decent bimmer attendance... But my friend and I will be heading to the meet at the fireside restaurant in Paramus. He's got a 91 ix and I'll be there with my vert . you'll see our two red e30's there.
                        Now on my 26th BMW...

                          lonely Delphin sedan in Richmond Hill Queens checking in!
                          I agree.. the e30s in Queens are far and few between...

                          I guess i will have to wait until the summer of 2017 to come out and play again...
                          Hunkering down for this winter and will add to my parts/mods list for summer fun :)

                            There are probably more E30's in Queens than any other place... I live in Brooklyn and see an E30 maybe once or twice a month. The Williamsburg/Greenpoint area does have a larger concentration though.

                              you could be true... its funny how only when you own a car then you tend to notice more of those cars around.

                              I saw a red vert speeding through my block over the weekend... and a black vert on bags 2 weeks ago... with a car seat in the back.....

                              so.. yea.. lets see how next summer goes.
