Default Spring is here! Toronto area 944 meet anyone?

I know there are a few 944 folk on here from the GTA and surrounding areas. Since the worst of winter is behind us, I was wondering if anyone is interested in a meet and perhaps a drive?

Come to the Canada forum, there's always a saturday GTG. It's great to have 944 people on hand.

I'd be down for a 944 meet. The GTG scares me as my car is not very pretty. It looks downright frightening amongst 911's.

Agreed. I saw a dark blue NA near King and Clarence last week, while there was still some snow. Seeing it out made me really jealous! Maybe next weekend.

I think a Kingston Cruise would be fun..You're not thaaat far down the road. There is enough of us to create some kind of "mini meet". I'm always up for a drive, and a few hours drive in the 944 doesn't scare me...too much..hehehe

Ya. Don't worry about a few 911's. Friendly bunch, and they were more than impressed when my shifter linkage broke at the GTG, and with a measly dollar store philips screwdriver, I made the car driveable enough, that I could make the 1hr drive home!

I even brought my evil turbo'd Datsun 280Z once!!

+1, The 911 guys at the GTG are pretty friendly.
I've been to a couple of them and I was the only one with a 944. Was hoping to get a few 944/951/968 guys to meet up.
Driving an hour or so east or west of the GTA is fine with me.
Let see if we can get something sorted out for 2 or 3 weeks from today?

hmmm...the snow is melting here near Owen Sound... a GTG could be doable.

Not to offend anyone, but I'd prefer 944 variants only.
