Yup.... here is the shop day topic for the post-auto-show:
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56626

I'll be in the area so I would be down to go on the 9th.

Corporate sponsored with dealer support, one of only two selling shows in the US.

I'm going on media night courtesy of Scion buds. Fewer crowds + free food = present.

We don't get all of the concepts b/c shows are rated according to attendance, space and media exposure. Portland is a B list show, nothing wrong with that, but the logistics involved to transport the big show display (we get the small show display) don't compute for our relatively small metro demographic.

OTOH, we do get many of the traveling brolly girls seen at the big shows, so all is not lost.

Alright 10am = auto show 12pm = darrens it looks like.

I think I'm going to have to skip out on the show...Sunday mornings are church for me

Thanks for all the useful info Rob. You definitely rub elbows with some cool folks!

I prefer the car gods. :bonk: :burnrubber: :bonk:

Yeah...I got my priorities but I'll be at Darrens at noon

Where is this going down? I have never been and I've never been to Portland before :(

Here's the website for the show:

http://portlandautoshow1.tru-m.com/

It's held at the Oregon Convention Center:

777 NE Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Portland, OR 97232

You can PM @DarrenDriven for his address.

:thumbsup:

I need to buy you a super hero cape with a 86 logo on the back. :respekt:

Appreciate it @indesign, if you're there I'll see you at the show and later on at @DarrenDriven

I might go Saturday though since I have no plans for Saturday yet

I'm in.

I'm gonna grab coffee @ the Starbucks across the way before hand if people want to meet up first. Might make the herding of cats easier if we meet up first

There is plenty of parking @ Starbucks if we want to attempt to roll up to the parking garage together.

Portland Auto Show
 

I'm going on Saturday 8th.

What time you planning on going? I'm going to go Saturday as well just not sure when yet

Car shows are a type of church/religion to us!

We'll even form into a drum circle and I'll dance for the oil gods. Somebody bring the salt..

Sadly I only have pepper....

Alright guys we still doing chipotle before the show? If so what time so we can be at the show at 10am?

I don't think chipotle is open that early.

That's what I was thinking :bonk: I think that early coffee might be a better solution then food.

What.. No backstage pass at Chipotle? Pshh

we can always us your exhaust to brake the glass at chipotle evan.... LOL. make our own food. :) Cops might be an issue then though...

If I had a food truck, I'd call it "86 Burritos".. 8 ingredients 6 dollars

All this burrito talk is making me hungry... I need to find a burrito place that's open right now...

I recommend this place:

Aprisa Mexican Cuisine
2311 SE 8th Ave, Portland, OR

You got my hopes up man. I thought they were open :cry:
Might have to stop by when they open for a breakfast burrito.

Made a facebook event since there are lots of locals who don't check up on the forum! We need to figure out a meet location before the show. like 8:30am-9am ish somewhere so we can park n chat before we get pushed into the crowds.

A few random pics of a special exhibit by the Mexican restaurant.

That black C7 was amazing.

Your Monogram spoiler pic shows the mismatch clearly.

What is this car? I missed it...

A couple more...

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...ps5331ed36.jpg

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...ps41861482.jpg

it's a hyundai genesis with a widebody kit.

i took the picture of the monogram spoiler because of the mismatch. :D

Oh, I didn't visit the Hyundai exhibit.

Yeah, I was embarrassed for Scion with that spoiler mismatch.

I'm out on going tomorrow morning. I can't even get out of my driveway!
