    OK. Now that it's a sticky, here is the whole scoop:

    "Get together at Chapter's/Starbucks across from Sherway Gardens Mall on the Queensway between Hwy 427 & The West Mall.
    Every Saturday at 10:00 am this location for an informal get together. I realize that with vacations, track days, etc... it won't be possible for everyone to show up all the time, but the idea is that you can pop by for 2 minutes or 2 hours. Coffee, mags all available and if those present decide to go for a drive or lunch, we can take off from there. FYI: we gather in the parking lot behind the Chapter's/Starbucks; less visible from the street, but also less possiblities of clapped out minivans/SUVs/pickups and other assorted POS's sidding up to your car."

    If you're heading south on 427 exit at Queensway. Turn right. Through 1 light & turn right at the next. Drive past Starbucks & around back.

    We are looking for a new venue & I will report here as available.

    April 7 will be a lighter day because as Mark mentioned, there is a Porsche DE. And it's the Easter weekend. That said, I will try to be there. But we have all summer . . .

    More like a "private party" for Stroll's cronies.

    Sorry...I've still got a bitter taste in my mouth when I was told today, (with an air of arrogance and contempt) that it was a "by invitation only" to Montreal's elite. I guess since my name isn't Saputo, and I don't putz around in an Alfa Brera...don't get me f*cking started!!!!!! AAAARRRGGHHH!!!!!!!!

    From what I also understood, the FCA members weren't even invited.

    I would always prefer to be a "nobody", that way people don't expect me to show up at these things.

    IIRC, you never show up anytime or anywhere, so you don't exist, So technically you can't even be a "nobody".

    lol!

    Ouch, bitterness is right! Its cool though, your a legit guy and I think that is a better quality than a red piece of cardboard with a Ferrari logo and a RSVP written on it. I mean any owner who can hold a lengthy conversation with a poor student and his 'lady friend' at a Ferrari event without talking down to them is quite the respectable dude.

    Speaking of 'lady friends', the Brera dude is always alone when I see him, can't pickup in the car or what? haha

    thanks for confirming all is on
    i would LOVE to go, just tryign to see if anyone has an extra seat in an F-car and i will pay for the fuel to there (so 1/2 the trip is free for someone) and i finally get to talk with another F-car person face to face and experience an F-car by with an F-car driver!
    I am looking at 308 and 328 so that would be my ideal ride to see what these babies can do!!

    so.... as i have to come from bracebridge, i can meet someone on the 400/401 and go from there with them. IF possible
    if NO one, that is okay too, just thought i might get a response
    if no one, where do we go as i do not know where the RM place literally is (only that it is in Chatham)
    who do i need to confirm the RM event with? (so new to the F-scene esp in Ontario so i apologize for being so newbie!!)

    thx again,
    gord

    i may have an f-car by May 12, but who knows, busy time of year with construction on (architect by trade) so the purchase had to be put on the back burner for a bit.

    p.s. anyone have a comment on the car by gardelli motors (i have comments from the other US f-chat members) car is at

    I'd rather be a somebody...that way I can refuse to attend these functions. ;)

    All part and privilege of being Rossa subscribed. :D

    Thank you Babs. I too was a "poor" student and I haven't forgotten my humble beginnings. Red car or not...doesn't give me the right to be condescending, look down on (or talk down to) others. In the end, my poop smells as bad as anyone else's. :D
    He's the Italian Consul General, so perhaps his wife is back home in Italy. ...or simply couldn't be bothered to attend these events.

    ...you still seeing that lady friend? ;)

    ...sorry for the paparazzi/spy photos....I couldn't help myself :D:D:D:D:D

    Hi Gord, good luck hitching a ride. I assume everyone has their seats full and thats why it's hard.


    As for the Gardelli car, I do believe they've had it for a while. So who knows... Whatever you do make sure you get a PPI. I am sure you know that but sometimes people get ahead of themselves. Like Rickster said, take your time and get the right car.

    thx, that was all i was looking for, presumed everyone's ride was full but you never know!

    so... where IS RM in Chatham, anyone, anyone, Buller, Buller??

    sorry for the reducnacy of questions

    are there any recommended PPI people in Toronto, Montreal, London that i should use (again newbie here!)

    and yes they have had the car awhile, i guess that is a sign about her re: the F-crowd (i think she looks good but an 81 made to look 88 i guess is like a kit car, just not right exactly)

    thx
    gord
