[sicsol]

Yes, Its correct. We have move the meet from Thursday to Wednesday for this week only.

For first timers coming out, the location is listed below.

Location: Starbucks at Dundas/Trafalgar (inside strip plaza with Longos and BMO and TurtleJacks)

Anyone mind if we try Williams? It's 20' away and I met the owner last week. Really nice guy and I like the coffee better :)

For the coffee/inside portion, that's cool. For parking, that end seems to always be busy...so around the same area we normally park at might work better...not that it's a long walk to Williams lol.

Well, for some of the not regulars, maybe. For me, I always try to make it out...and with the weather being somewhat nice so far, even better.

Come out ^_^

We're a good bunch :D

[Pereira11]

[QUOTE=Iceman_F1;384071]Well, for some of the not regulars, maybe. For me, I always try to make it out...and with the weather being somewhat nice so far, even better.

Not ALWAYS...I missed the last one. But I always try to be out. Hopefully as the weather gets nicer, we get more people showing up.

[She_Prime]

I'll be coming out after work so potentially Nurse Angela will be present!

Hopefully I can manage to remember to bring "normal" clothes :chuckle:blush

Free blood pressure assessments for all once you get your butt out of the 2010 Mazda 3!

[sicsol]

This could be the biggest meet to date on "Oakville Thursdays" LOL.

[QEWmazdaPrez]

This could be the biggest meet to date on "Oakville Thursdays" LOL.

Hmm....Wonder if we're getting good turnout because:
a) Oakville Thursday's meet is on a Wednesday
b) Free tickets to the Auto Show
c) 2010's Mazda 3's will be there
or d) Because Gary's buying coffee....

If we haven't sold them by Wednesday, we'll be bringing a 2010 M3 Sport GT-E (Fully Loaded) and a M3 Sedan GT, for your viewing pleasure :bana2

Isn't the M3 Sport GT-E a hatch? IE if I'm reading it right, if he hasn't sold them, he's bringing a hatch and a sedan?

[sicsol]

Yeah, I think you are right. I might not wait till Wednesday & take a drive to Oakville to check it out. lol.

& Yes. Oakville is going to try & bring both the Hatch & Sedan out.

[Pereira11]

gary you better hurry if you wanna catch the car at the dealership!

[sicsol]

Damm it, they have me chain to my desk. Just tell Jason it won't be ready till tomorrow.

[MAZDA Kitten]

Weather is looking good everyone!!!! 11 degrees!! Time to bust out the Coach umbrella woohoo!

[WhiteSpeed3]

Prima Mazda has decided to also bring out both 2010 hatch and 2010 sedan to the La Paloma meet in Woodbridge this wednesday

Ummm....2 words come to my mind.....

No Way :)

Besides, how can a member of BOD suggest putting anything that is gold on a black car?

[MAZDA Kitten]

Thats blasphemy!!!

Hey Jason.
I look forward to meeting you there and thanking you personally for the great service.

Take care.

[Krakor]

So just to be clear... Are we meeting at Starbucks or Williams?

It wasn't clear after I saw Jason's post.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Parking outside starbucks (same place we always park) and then walk over to Williams. Reason being the parking is always busy over by Williams but it's pretty empty over by starbucks. Don't worry...I'm usually the first one there so it should be pretty easy to spot.

I just found out 2 meets, 2 dealerships, in the same night.

Which one to go....

BTW Gary, saw the 2 2010's in person.

The black hatch, and white sedan.

If I had to compare with the two hatches, the non Sport version looks more aggressive and good looking than the sport. I hate those fog lights.

Thanks to Andrew for showing me around the showroom and seeing the 3's up close.

And when you see the 3's I'm sure you will agree with me. The grille to cover the front has no purpose, especially the plastic grates that don't even have holes in it!! I want to see it without the grille.... (paging Andrew....)

Bump!!

Hey Skip,
Welcome! When you come, make sure you ask for everybody's name, because I don't remember any of them. Also, make sure you stay away from anybody who drives a Mazda 3. That crowd is a bit sketchy....
J
PS. The newest member doesn't have to buy everybody coffee. Just the DP. :)

[-RJ3-]

I'm free now I think I'll pass by Oakville Mazda roses firstlook of the 3's

[sicsol]

damm you. It's too far out of my way, or I would swing by myself.

[Skip]

lets hope the rain stops!

[Pereira11]

the rain seems to be dying down, make sure you come to see!

[KenYork]

My car's already on the other side of longo's. Maybe I'll drop by.

[-RJ3-]

Special thanks to andrew and Jason for welcoming me to Oakville Mazda and taking pictures (photoshoot) of the black 2010 Mazda 3 sport!!!!


Post pics in a few hours!

[Soyabean]

at la paloma we got a black sedan and copper red hatch. Very nice interior

[She_Prime]

Great meet guys!

Special thanks to Jason and Andrew of Oakville Mazda for bringing out the black GT-E hatchback (auto) (with rims :hawt) and the white GT sedan (manual).

And thanks for the cruise around the block in the sedan Andrew and Scott lol :chuckle

Look to the TM3 Times this month for more details!

P.S.- Thanks to Williams Coffee Pub for the free Cappuccino vouchers (even though some expired 1-2 years ago)

[mEtH]

Glad to hear it was a good meet. I planned on coming for at least a week now but the weather just sucked too much so stayed in. Looking forward to any pics people took!

[-RJ3-]

Pics are up!!!!

The weather wasn't so great but the new 3's looked great, the white sedan was so sexy. It was great meeting you guys today, sorry I had to run so early. I took some pics, i'll post them up when I get a chance.

[sicsol]

Williams Coffee Pub looks to be the better choice then Starbucks.

I feel it was a great meet in spite of the rain & want to thank Oakville Mazda for taking time out of there day to bring both 2010 sedan & hatch for us to check out.

Yeah, it was a lot more open in terms of space. Not sure on their drinks and food but shouldn't have an issue with seating.

Thanks again Oakville Mazda for bringing the cars. I'll have a look at my pictures closer to the weekend (really busy with work today and tomorrow). Should be a few good ones.

[-RJ3-]

Yah I had so much pictures taken but these were the best I can use!

[1flycdnM3]

few points on the meet lastnight

1. That was the scariest drive EVER on highway 5 getting to the meet! pitch black w/ fog!
2. Still shocked we had that many people come out, even in the rain!
3. Really awesome to see two new 3's and i must admit i do have a "soft-spot" for the GT Hatch and the keyless entry is SWEEEEEEEET!
4. FREE Autoshow tickets from Oakville Mazda
5. FREE coffee from Williams Staff (hopefully, since some were expired) *lol*

Best part of the night, taking a spin around the block in the Sedan! Thanks again Andrew, I am really impressed now actually. The gearing for the new 3 is much better in comparison to previous gens and the 2.5L is a nice bonus too. Surprisingly, the clutch felt ALOT similar to my car (stock) too. Gauges i am not completely sold on, but i could get used to it, very nice interior.

[Krakor]

I had a great time seeing some of you again and meeting some of you for the first time.

Thanks to Jason for coming out. It was great chatting with you.

Had a great time talking to SICSOL (Gary - I swear you have ADHD!) :chuckle

Got to meet 1fly, She_prime, RJ3, F1, good to see Andrew out with his buddy drinking foamy pink stuff.. Don't ask!

Can't wait for the next meet. Hopefully it won't be as rainy.

I could have sworn I saw my life flash before my eyes several times on the way over due to the fog! That was thick. Damn HID's do nothing in fog!

I look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Gary, I will message you next week, maybe we can go for a coffee before my client meeting.

New 3's look sweet! But they got nothing on my 2008.5! Ok well maybe a few things...

[-RJ3-]

very good meet lastnight!!! Nice to see new faces as well as old!!!
My highlight of the night was having to see the hatch nice and clean with the tints and rims before it hit the streets!


Thanks again! Btw jason I don't call you as much as GAry does LOL


Dang missed the batch of cookies this morning!

[Pereira11]

ryan i thought you were coming in for cookies, i had them baked especially for you!

[-RJ3-]

Tomorrow for sure it's relaxing day LOL

[sicsol]

Thanks again! Btw jason I don't call you as much as GAry does LOL


I only call Jason when I'm heading over for yet another service. One more Oil change to go then it will be time to break down the car & upgrade to a new one.

[-RJ3-]

Either way, it was a good turn-out despite the weather and nice to see the new Mazda 3's...

That's the good thing about having a big golf umbrella. It covers you more than a normal one and thus kept my camera dry.

[QEWmazdaPrez]

Thanks for the meet guys. Been busy, as usual. The turnout and pics were great. I'm definitely looking forward to the better weather and nicer evenings. Where did those "warm" days go?
Hopefully it won't be long before we I get to drive my new "demo" around :)
Tough choice whether to put TM3 plates on or Oakville Mazda plates!
See you all soon. And don't hesitate to stop by and grab a cookie or coffee:pop

Thanks Again Jason for the Mazda 3s coming out and of course the autoshow tickets. The ones Scott and I got definitely came in handy! We took my son out to it on Monday. Us all getting in for free meant a cheap getaway!

Thanks again, and we'll see you soon hopefully!

[sicsol]

Heading to the Autoshow on Sat. Thanks again Jason.
