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!
