The next meet has always been announced day of the meet... didn\'t you know that?
Guess not, I\'ve never seen the postings the day of. Guess its just a conversational thing. I haven\'t been to a meet.
Well, methodyst, is today gonna be your day of initiation? Or are you not showing up again? :D j/k

Not too many... Our cars are too new. There aren\'t many major mods you can do to the 3\'s right now.

I\'m going to *try* to make this one...
it\'s easier for me to get to a eastside meet...but I am supposed to be going to a memorial service for my grandmother that day in Trenton...so it\'ll be a game of wait and see. Plus I\'ll have my son with me, which would equal hell to try and keep him busy..or a very quick drop-in.

I would doubt there are many mods. Simply because the car is new and has warrenty :)
Guys, I have a family reunion up at the cottage (in sudbury), So I cant come :(, But will be at MOM!!! WOOT WOOT!
~JOHN
I might come...50%.
Still JDM-ing my 3 - Minidisc, Axela badge, AutoExe suspension...and now LED taillights!

Hope things work out! Don\'t worry about your son... as long as he doesn\'t decide to play near our cars :D j/k!
Hope to see you at Kennedy Commons between 4pm and 6pm!
majic; I know exactly how you feel! I went to the first two meets without a 3 and the urge to want mine became even greater. :)
Any suggestions for the post-meet cruise?
Xenon

I really liked that Jack Astors dinner we had last time... But if people know of elsewhere to cruise...
I\'m definately up for a nice, long cruise.

From Kennedy Commons... we can cruise to the Jack Astors at 403 and Dundas :p
Long enough?

09-02-2004, 01:11 AM
hehe - thats a pretty long cruise...
I say we do a big circle and end up right back at Kennedy Commons :D

I wouldn\'t mind a cruise to the Jack Astors at Square One...the long way!!
401 -> DVP -> (maybe cruise around downtown) -> Gardiner -> QEW -> (detour to) Mississauga Road -> Eglinton -> Hurontario :p

A suggestion for meeting location.
Since this one appears to be a east-end meeting by the highway, why not meet at Mazda Canada\'s new headquarters. It\'s located right at Hwy 404 & 16th Avenue (16th is the 4th exit north of the 401). The parkinglot is available for anyone to just drive in, and there are typically just a few (around five) Mazda workers on a Saturday (and I\'m sure they wouldn\'t mind). Maybe they\'ll even give a tour of their new digs!
And yes, there\'s a Jack Astors (and other related restaurants) nearby.

We have default locations for our meets, which come into affect this meet in September. These have been implemented for simplicity.
Any change in location for a meet must be put to a vote with a majority approving the change.

09-08-2004, 03:47 PM
I like the idea of the Mazda Headquarters.
So I\'d like to come out to my first meet!! I get off work at 3:30 that day,
How do I get to Kennedy Commons from Toronto??
Do I have to bring anything?
Ray
Hi firstmazda,
Kennedy Commons is south east of Kennedy and the 401. It\'s a huge plaza with AMC theatres, Golf Town, Chapters, TD Bank, and a few other big stores. We will be in the parking lot of TD Bank. You can\'t miss us.
If you\'re on the 401 EAST-bound, exit Kennedy and stay in the \"straight\" lane (ie. crossing Kennedy, NOT turning left or right onto Kennedy). You will drive right past the TD on your right. First right, turn in and then another right to get into the parking lot.

We usually go out for the cruise two hours after (around 6pm we start cruising as a group). Those who are still able to stick around will go do something together (usually dinner).

09-09-2004, 12:26 AM
And I\'m assuming there\'s a gas stn. right by there too right?
just incase i don\'t have time right after work to get to the meet in time.
Ryan (RJR3) are you going??
Ray
Ti GT GFX in Etobs.
Your buddy RJ3 had posted something about that... there\'s no gas station in the direct vicinity that I know of;

If you\'re asking about Kennedy Commons area, there is a Sunoco just South of the Commons at Kennedy and Progress ...MAP (http://www.sunoco.ca/retail_detail.asp?station_id=6273) (on the East side of Kennedy)

That sounds like fun.... except the Downtown part. We are almost sure to be broken up Downtown with all the traffic and the lights. If we skipped that part went from DVP to Gardiner To QEW, that would be good.

hmmm, as i am not familiar with the GTA directional wise...i will do my dam best to make it out...
Xenon
09-14-2004, 04:52 PM
So what says everyone to a cruise to theJack Astors Mississauga near Dundas & 403? There is also an Outback Steakhouse, Montana\'s, Mr Greek, Popeye\'s Chicken, some seafood restaurant that I can\'t remember the name of and a Manderin in the area.
It sounds like people like the long cruises, especially after the wonderful cruise to MOM.
Long cruises are a huge bonus! The looks we get from other cars... awesome! I wonder what\'s in their minds when they see a line-up of cars driving like that? I know I never saw that kinda thing before on the highway.
As for where to cruise to... as long as they serve beer :)
(xenon, teambedlam, methodyst, hypothrml, mazda3_mike, profusion, david3, autoexe, newlook, fat mike, bubba1983, midnightfxgt, and billyfo... what the heck, fabian too)
MAZDA3_MIKE has stated to me in a PM that he will most likely make the hike from Fort Erie to Scarborough to attend meet #5 (unless of last minute emergency of course). bubba1983, looks like you guys (with fat mike if he is coming) can have another mini cruise, maybe to meet up at 401 and Hurontario (north of 401 two blocks, Courtney Park AMC) around 3pm to cruise with our west side group to the main meet location.
I am not positive if I am going as of yet. Friends throwing his third annual house party for another friends B-Day. Do it every year. I gotta check what time he plans to starts things off at.
Hopefully maybe I can kick around for 2 hours and cruise back.
bubba1983
09-16-2004, 01:37 PM
right on wtom....if not fat mike, i\'m a for sure....i\'ll get in ocntact with you on msn about directions...
Xenon
09-16-2004, 09:29 PM
Maybe I\'ll talk to my parents... see if I can have a bbq at my house after the meet :D
firstmazda
09-17-2004, 01:34 AM
So, do we have a final destination yet?
Don\'t matter, just wanna cruise.
Personally, I like the idea of J. Astor\'s at Sq. One or Dudnas/403 area.
Wtom: hate to bug you about the same topic over and over again, but
do you think your friend will drop by the meet with with a couple
sets of walkie talkies?

09-17-2004, 05:32 AM
lol, BBQ ah? i still got them 2 boxes of wings from MOM wihch weren\'t opened....
Xe, would it be a high possibility? And your parents will not mind if I lug a case of 24\'s? :)
Seriously tho, it\'ll be great if we can cruise to your place, Xe.
firstmazda - no worries, i was wondering if you were still interested. I just sent an email to Jack about the slightly-used set of Motorola T5725. he told me a week or two ago that he still had a few sets available. I\'ll let you know here, once he replies (I invited him to come to Kennedy Commons, TD Bank parking lot, between 4pm and 6pm).
EDIT: Jack replied, he will bring a few sets to our meet on the 25th. $45 a set. They go for $89 at Best Buy/Future Shop I believe... note these are slightly used!!! :)

Meet #5 UPDATE, Many Questions Answered Here:

THE BBQ AT MY PLACE IS A GO. I have approval from my parents to have a BBQ at my house after the meet. Anyone is welcome to my house. It will be funny seeing my small little street taken over by Mazda3\'s.
Originally posted by wtom

My parents will not have a problem with alcohol being present. But as always, please drink responsibly.

Our Westide pre-meet is at 3:00 PM, we leave the AMC Courtney Park Lot at 3:15 sharp. If you can make to to AMC:CP by 3:15 then you are good. If not, you can cruise to KC and meet us there and cruise with us back to the BBQ if you want. If you JUST miss us, you can try to catch up with us... As on all of our cruises we will have FRS radios, Channel 3 (no sub-channel).

BTW the beer I\'m bringing is, as promised, for the members who made it to MOM\'04, there may be a few bottles left after first dibs by the ppl below so those remaining are free for grabbing by others, my treat;

Well I\'m going to try to make it for part of the meet, but any cruise or BBQ I doubt will be happening for me. I\'ll have to bring along my little guy, as my parents are gone for the day and I don\'t have anyone else to watch him.
So hopefully I\'ll be able to see you guys at 4!
Xenon

Just want to mention a few things about the BBQ:
The Hot tub will be open, so bring your swimwear. Should be a warm 36 C :)
Feel free to bring whatever to the BBQ, foodwise. Bring what you have leftover from MOM (even the chicken wings!!!). Bring more if you like. Just in case I\'ll go out and buys some burgers or something, in case we don\'t have enough food.
Pool will be openn, and it will be heated, but because of the cold weather we have had for the last couple weeks, I\'m not sure how warm it will actually be, and whether the weather on saturday will be warm enough to swim in, but nevertheless, it is open if people want to swim.
I will have my computer handy to DJ some music for you people :D DJing is a hobby of mine. Feel free to bring any CDs or MP3\'s that you want to have played or mixed in at the party.
I think that\'s about it in regards to the BBQ.
Just a reminder to those Westside People: You don\'t have to go alone to the meet!!! Reminder that there is a Westside Pre-Meet at AMC Courtney Park, 3 PM Saturday.
See you all then!
Had a crappy day at work so put together a map to Kennedy Commons for those of you unsure of how to get to our location (attachment link at end of this msg, below my sig).
From the West, on 401
Exit Kennedy, at the Kennedy traffic lights, go straight, into the plaza roadway (notice the Casey\'s on your left, TD Bank on right, possibly a few Mazda3\'s lined up already), first right turn in and then a second right (you will now be in the parking lot).
From the East, on 401
Exit Kennedy, at the Kennedy traffic lights, turn LEFT (south bound). After passing through the underpass of the 401, second traffic light turn left. When you see another left that turns into a parking lot, go for it. :)
From the North and South on Kennedy
Turn east at the main plaza entrance off Kennedy (second light south of 401 underpass). Sorry I can\'t remember much details for this route. Once inside the main plaza roadway, make a left at the first parking lot entrance.

Take the 400 South, to 401 East, Exit at Kennedy. At the exit on Kennedy GO STRAIGHT. You will see the car meet immediately to your right when you enter the Commons.
I hope that helps :) See you there. If your timing is right, you might see the Westside members cruiseing to the meet too :D

Good to hear that the meet might not be a sausage fest.
Now i\'m really sorry i won\'t be there.
Hopefully all you guys won\'t scare the women away so i can someday meet them.

A little update on the after-meet cruise. One of my friends wants to come to the BBQ, but because of her (that\'s right, she\'s a female) schedule, she cannot come to the meet with us, nor does she have a car.
I have made arrangements to meet her in a specific section of the Square One Parking Lot. This section is the lot just east of the Mississauga Transit Bus Terminal. If it\'s alright with everyone, we need to swing by that parking lot and pick her up. It would be nice to attract the attention of some people in their riced up cars too (we won\'t be there long enough to attract security, 10 mins max).
This also brings a nice opprotunity to those who live in the Westside and cannot attend the meet, but want to go to the barbacue. If you would like to join our cruise to the Barbacue, please meet at the Parking Lot, just East of the Mississauga Transit Bus Terminal (Across the street from Playdium). Be there NO LATER THAN 6:30 PM.
See you all Saturday!

Yeah I\'ve still got 2, Bluntman said he was interested in one as well but I\'m not sure he still is. I have them in the trunk so they\'ll be with me at meet #5. I have it installed so you can check it out then. Actually, I\'ll take a pic now and upload it to my imagestation account. Give me like 20 minutes and it\'ll be there. Look under September 24th.

That\'s in my plans. As always, Channel 3, subchannel (if you have) 0, for all Toronto Mazda3 events.
I will turn on my radio from 3:50pm in the area.

damn, sorry I missed the meet. I was off at 3:30 and actually going to KC, then a phone call that my friend\'s wife got hit( I drove him home), so I had to take him to look what had happened, but lucky a minor one and only the bumper and headlight damaged.
Sorry to hear about that Billy, but glad your friends are both okay!
Happy Birthday to Kevin, aka teambedlam! No wonder you weren\'t there today! No worries, you would have been out of place with your blaring Velocity Red Sport! :D

I must admit that I was totally overwhelmed trying to remember all the names and then the associated TM3 handles... To top it off I didn\'t know who owned each car, other than a few who have posted pics.
A big thanks to Sw0rdfish (who\'s real name has slipped my mind :zzz ) who made me feel really welcomed and took a bit of the edge off my shyness.

Hey man.. no worries... Was a pleasure talking to you!
Was awesome to meet you all again, I know I don\'t make many meets, unfortuantley I\'ve got so much shit to do with running my own business that I end up working Saturday\'s and such. I will remain as active as I can on the Forms, and at the meets. You\'re all a great bunch and it\'s a lot of fun!

Swordfish, I agree
I use MSN at work all the time, so please feel free to add me so I can keep in contact besides the meet and know everyone\'s name by the next meet. It really is a small world, because I had a parking decal on my car, and Nick came up to me and asked where I worked. It turned out that we work in the same building in Etobicoke!! So I think we are going to start parking our cars together so we can get more attention for the club!!!! :p :D Thanks again for having my girlfriend and I

We really should get that group photo and photoshop people\'s names and TM3 handles onto it. Then it should get a stickied \'Member\' thread. All we\'d need to do is find someone to host it. :D
I think bubba1983 was the tall guy with the glasses and the hat
Black 3 showed up late and parked near to where Fabien had parked (I didn\'t catch his name)
Bluntman (Arthur) showed up late as well and parked his orange hatch at the end farthest from Super_Vixen.
methodyst (name slips my mind) had one of the black sedans in the middle I believe it\'s his car in sw0rdfish\'s before and after antenna shot.
That\'s the best I can do offhand.
Oh yeah, I saw Bluntman\'s rims on the Mazda 3 Forums and liked his style, it was no coincidence. :p

09-28-2004, 12:08 PM
The problem is that there are too many Titanium Greys! :D
firstmazda - Ray;
Jim (arrived a bit late, with gf) Silver Sedan - jimdragon8
?? went to Rona to get utility knife for his new H2 antenna Black Sedan -methodyst
Arthur, Arrived a bit after myself (wtom) orange shirt (?) Gray Sedan -Grifter
Andrew, blue Sport, CompuStar alarm, parked right beside Xenon (Lawrence) - MazdaTree
I believe that would be Randal/sw0rdfish Gray Sedan - poker guy
bubba/Adam Gray Sedan - tall white guy with glasses and hat
David3/David also Gray Sedan? - young white guy
Nick? Gray Sport - Tall white guy with shaved head & GF
Hypothrml/Thomas, aka MOM Mazda3 BBQ-King, aka TM3 Body Guard (j/k) - big asian guy with black GT/GFX
We do have this (failed) thread; http://torontomazda3.com/forum/read.php?TID=142
