Hey everyone,

I don't to start a flame war about this, and not sure if it even will; but where I am, Tucson, the import clubs are horrendous. now granted there are no Toyota clubs that I know of ( miiight be a 7th gen club... but they have their own problems like thinking all other celica's are crap). and like 90% of the clubs revolve around Honda's. I don't know how this is in any other city, but there is a lot of bad blood in the Honda community in Tucson, and from what I heard, in Phoenix as well. hell the biggest Honda club in Arizona has a dedicated page to known thieves. but anyway this bad blood causes a lot of drama in the import scene around town and generally weekly meets are shut down by cops.

I wanted to know how Import meets are in other States, and if they are usually bad, what do you end up doing?

I'm not sure how things are now since I've been out of the car "scene" the last 4-5 years, but when celica.net was still up and awesome like 2002-04ish we used to have meets all the time between Vegas and Phoenix. They were fun and laid back with mostly celica/supra/mr2 people and anyone who wanted to hang out! Then when I got my Tiburon in 2004 we had local meets all the time! We had the best meet in LA with nearly 40 tiburons that turned out! I miss those days! I know that we have a, I believe weekly, type meet in Henderson. They call it "Cars and Coffee" and basically anyone can show up and park/show/check out other people cars on sunday mornings. There's everything from classics to the newest cars, I went once with my husband for one of his camaro forum meets and it really reminded me of the...dare I say...good old days! lol. Tuscon and Havasu aren't far...you guys should come! wink.gif
