Hey guys! Just wanted to introduce myself, my name is Jason and I just stumbled upon this site after lurking around mazda3forums.com for a while. I just picked up my new 2005 GT hatch 4AT in indigo blue last week from Avante Richmond Hill and I couldn\'t be a happier camper! I\'d love to attend one of these meets and see what cool mods some people have for their cars, but I also want to learn a lot. This is my first new car, I\'m hoping to meet people that know of good places in Markham for servicing, just in case I need it down the line.

Anyway just wanted to post a little shout out and bring up my post count to 1!

before i go on and flame you :) i would like to http://sawicki.netrulon.com/images/smileys/welcome.gif you first :D

now you\'re really lucky you somehow tied your post to the \'meet\' heh.. j/k anyway.. whatever you do DO NOT GO TO MARKHAM MAZDA for service.. a few members have been quite dissatisfied.. read akz\'s experience here (http://torontomazda3.com/forum/read.php?TID=1717#26378)

the search feature will soon become your friend.. have a go at it here (http://torontomazda3.com/forum/search.php) and roam around and get used to a bit more structure than on m3f and a tighter community.. might wanna add yourself to the roll call for meet 9 (http://torontomazda3.com/forum/read.php?TID=1938) - it\'s not necessary but you can up your post count to 2 :)

I went to this meet location on Saturday at around 3pm (to go to the Ikea that is there) and noticed the Bally\'s parking lot wasn\'t quite as empty as the meet we had in February. The AMC parking lot, however, had more than half of its lot empty, especially the north-most aisle which spans at least 30 cars wide.

THUS ... if you arrive at 400 and 7 AMC Interchange at 4pm and cannot find TM3 members standing outside of their 3\'s in the Bally\'s parking lot, drive over to the AMC lot and we might be there instead.

Just another reason why FRS Radios come in handy :)

No probs with me to do that. We don\'t have a central rep right?

Xenon, how about making/selling TM3 FRS radios? hahaha

[SoopaBanana]

I\'m definitely too much of a n00b to be a rep, but since I\'m downtown I wouldn\'t mind organizing something in central...

Still, I\'d like to see the day where 30 Mazda3s cruise down Bloor/Yonge....

Have you seen me do much at the meets? Nada... at most it was RAFFLE TICKETS, GET YOUR RAFFLE TICKETS!!! ... you weren\'t there but it was on November 26th of last year. :D

Cruise is always awesome but in the middle of the city, we\'ll cause chaos. That and EVERY SINGLE driver will need an FRS radio. That is required!

[SoopaBanana]

interesting... Are we having any events this time? Raffle, driving range, etc?

[wtom]

I\'ll see if I can get some more air fresheners to raffle off... or if a sponsor wouldn\'t mind to provide a small item to raffle off? :D

[Kager]

[dredd2099]

[wtom]

[Xenon]

wtom: TM3 FRS huh? haha that would be interesting.... get them mica painted tomatch the car :p

[lukel90]

well i hope to meet everyone there..my first meet..im a little excited.

[nifty6]

If it rains will the meet be rescheduled?

[lukel90]

if it rains im pretty sure it will be as no one wants to stand out in the rain getting drenched. But looking at the weather, its shoulndt rain this weekend/

[MazdaTree]

if it rains we\'ll all sit in our cars and chat on FRS:p
juss joking... we would prolly cruise to somewhere indoors and chill there

[wtom]

The Weather Network (http://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/cities/can/Pages/CAON0696.htm) is saying it\'s gonna rain on Saturday. :(

If anything we can cruise to a covered parking garage or underground parking lot. Anyone know of any around the 400 and 7 area?

[AFbunnie]

I know.. stupid question.... What are FRS?? Am I correct to assume that they\' are high tech walkie talkies???

[MazdaTree]

correct:)

Heheheheh they\'re not high tech at all. Just set them to the channel the rest of us are using and push and hold the button to talk. Let go of button when done speaking. Other people will respond. When the channel is silent (open) feel free to push/hold and talk again. :)

[Axela Mazda 3]

hi...i joined this forum about a month ago...i will be joining the official meet on saturday...hope i am welcomed too since no one knows who i am!!!...
i don\'t have much mods yet...but so far i got tein high tech springs installed

[wtom]

More than welcome Axela Mazda 3! If we could, it\'d be perfect if every single member of TorontoMazda3 could show up at our meets! :D

See you there as well as anyone else who has the time and slightest interest in checking out a parking lot full of Mazda3s, modded or not!

[AFbunnie]

It\'s gonna rain!~!! BOOOOOOOO!!! :(

[Hypothrml]

As for Covered parking area, there\'s a company just off Hurontario and Britannia that Meth, RJ3, and I go to race our xmods, maybe we can use that place. I don\'t remember the name of the building, maybe Meth of RJ3 knows.

[wtom]

Weather Forecast is LIGHT RAIN. Everyone just bring an umbrella to keep this simple.

[PlatMS6]

hey will the pedal gb stuff be there?

[///M]

hmmm...I wasn\'t planning to come but I might be able to make it now so I might drop by

[m_a_t_r_i_x]

rain or shine im dropping-by..........

[dredd2099]

lol
even for being \'somewhat free\'
nobody likes the stik
oh wellz

[mEtH]

hypo is talking bout the ingrim building across from the purolator building. Its a 3 level parking lot seems to always be quiet when we go there.

[-RJ3-]

We only had 3 3\'s parked there. If they see 20 + I think the rent-a-cops would show up.

If we do go I\'d say park at the lower level facing hurontario street.

[emc]

meh ... i can\'t go today :( i am stuck here at work again until close. Crap, do we have a date on the next meet so i can book it off? I really wanna go ...

Nonetheless, it is a super crappy day out, cold and rainy! I hope you guys find somewhere covered to go, and hope its a good turnout ... ugh
