Default PORSCHE DAY @ TOWER SHOPS - FRIDAY, JUNE 2nd 6:00PM DAVE, FL

Friday Night Hangout!

Tower Shops (University & just South of I-595)
(954) 473-8681
1986 South University DR
Davie, FL 33324

Huge car show type meet (Hundreds) of cars. Everything from the classics to modern exotics. From hot rods & muscle cars to supped up rice burners. Happens every Friday night, but trying to have a large Porsche presence on June 2nd. Good place to walk around and socialize with fellow car enthusiasts.
Starts at 6:00PM and peaks at about 9:00PM, the early birds get the better parking spots. Parking is $1.00 if you park within the corral (Usually grouped by make, model, or era), Free parking throughout the mall, & $5 if you're trying to sell your ride.

Look for the row of Porsches. I'll be in the Slate 997S

Here's a link to an article about the weekly meet

After the meets, we can organize a drive/ caravan to a local eatery TBD if any are game.

Roll Call:

1. CleanSlate

Is the Tower Shops the strip center where Home Depot and Costco are located?

I believe it is behind the Costco. There's a Miami Subs and a Linen-N-things there, as well. I think there's also an Outback steakhouse near the entrance. Tower Shops is located on the east side of University Drive just south of I-595.

Hard to miss with the huge amounts of cars rolling in.

I was there - Friday at 9pm. I had to go to that center's Office Depot to pick up a new laptop for the WereWife. At that point it was mostly a bunch of neon-equipped rice burners and a few NASCAR wannabees. There were 3 BMWs off to the side, but no P-cars at all. Maybe it gets better later at night. I'll check it out on June 2.

Believe it or not, 9:00PM is atcually a bit late for Towers. Typically, by that time most people have made plans and head out for a drive & to grab a bite. The latest I have personally stayed was close to 9 and mostly because a few of us decided to buy a pizza (at the mall).

Anyway, that's one of the reasons I wanted spread the word and posted a thread, in order to build P-car attendance. There is also a post on a BMW forum which usually gets a good turn out.

See next Friday.

Hey fellows... Looks like the forecast is predicting T-storms tomorrow afternoon. If that's the case, we may postpone until next week.

You're welcome. Hopefully, with some time we can build a nice size gathering. Perhaps once a month or so, at Towers.

Hey Guys... Sorry I couldn't make it to meet those of you that showed. I receive sweet tickets at the last minute for the Heat last night... couldn't pass up. WOW, what a game!

Probably go within the next couple of weeks or depending on the weather.
