I think we're going to have a fairly large turnout tomorrow... woops... later today, and we'll have some idea of what we're likely to deal with. We don't even yet know what's going to be sustainable on a weekly basis weather permitting, let alone the criteria for when we move to center square, how many cars will fit, etc. We hope to have some discussion when we're all there. We may have to brake it down into groups. Part of all this is to make it interesting to people who want to take pictures. Given that we're probably going to see a lot more cars than we first expected, I'm going to go straight to RTC and I'll skip EoM so I can help get the first cars organized.

oh yeah, Jason, Bruce, and d23 had their Nikon with them so they'd post it later tonight.
its also great because everybody knows where to park on one side. and not mix in with the Lambos and Ferrari on one lot.
one thing though: personally i wouldn't wake up my wife at 8am on a Saturday just to go for a "car meet" like this, especially on Valentine Day. and I don't mean to offend anybody here but unless you have to bring your gf or your wife, don't. let them sleep in on a Saturday, especially on a cold morning like this morning - i saw one guy's gf had to come back in his E55 AMG because she felt cold. i was more than happy to warm her up
mostly this kind of thing - car thing - are for us guys. and of course i know there are a few ladies here with car lifestyle and i do admire ladies with cars. its just a sexy combination

i'm sure it will, because this event was posted on Lambo & Ferrari site. i'm really looking forward to next meet with my new Porsche or Ferrari!

Hi all,
I took a lot of pictures and will be posting them soon.
The first Exotics at Redmond Town Center appears to be a huge success!
I met a lot of people, many that I discovered right here on 6 speed, and "met" a lot of NICE CARS. Where have these cars been hiding?
Informal count was taken and found between 35-50 cars, and many spectators, not to mention some of them Redmond's finest police officers.
BTW, on any Saturday with good weather - i.e. not raining, —this is a weekly event, same time, same place, 8:30am til your feet get tired
