with you & Julia. You're one of the few surviving original SoCal7s members! Thanks also for taking the awesome pics, and handling the "cash" during lunch. That's one of my least favorite things to do during a meet. The very cool black 7 your talking about is Andy's 7 (papmkr). He's done a lot of great mods to his car. I like his suede trunk mod, the whole audio upgrades he's done, not to mention his addition of his nav system to his 7 which came without nav. He's skilled in a lot of ways, audio, painting (he does his own work!) and other work that he's done.

It was cool to compare the two silver Dinan7s back to back. Quite similar in many ways, but each very different. And, being the one who picks the place to meet, I get to pick one of my favorite places to eat! The formula has worked pretty well for the meets so far. I'm looking forwards to the rest of the pics! Your 7 always draws a crowd at our meets, do to your fine work.
