G35 Sedan SHOWCASE GTG - September 26, 2009 - Long Beach, CA
Spending hundreds of dollars with quality vendors that are kind enough to reciprocate by supporting/sponsoring events with free stuff and discounted services - just to see people LOL about not using the gift really sucks - especially when I end up going back and PAYING for the service on my car (while raffle winners sit on discount coupons and free product).
It's happened with three vendors that I use... it's awful to ask for sponsorship and then have it not used (not just once, so anyone reading this, don't think I'm singling you out).
I don't think many people realize what’s involved with making this stuff happen... most just figure if they ask, it will happen - and the magic mod/meet fairy takes care of everything...
Marcus, I know you realize what it takes - and I'm sorry to vent in your resurrection thread/post... you are a good guy and you have done great things with your car and for the G community - as have several others... unfortunately many that have gone out of their way in the past have stepped back - and for various reason I am too.
Sorry friend, I'm out this time...

Everyone, I haven't released a date yet because I just saw that Riverside Inifiniti is having a show at their dealership the week before on 18 September. The goal was to have time between and not interfere with large SoCal events (ie: HB Meet in June) so that we would get a large turnout.
We will likely push this to October, but I need to talk with Chris (G35Papa) about it first. I'll let everyone know soon.

*cue the intro music*
The G35 Sedan Showcase GTG II will be held on Saturday 23 October 2010 at Long Beach's Shoreline Village.
Chris (g35papa) and I are currently working on getting sponsors for the event. If you are interested in being a sponsor please PM either myself or G35Papa.
Once we nail down the sponsors I'll start a new thread so that people can sign up. Its still pretty far away so it will be a while, just wanted to give everyone a heads up so they can mark their calendars and plan to attend!
Last year's GTG was a huge success, I can't wait for this year.
