Apparently flickr doesn't let you post individual pictures.

Here's the link to the overall photostream. More to come!

Sounds like fun to me! I'm in - Army weekends not interfering! I'd love to do some playing around with other 6'ers!

Sounds good guys, glad to see the excitement. I'll wait until we have 5 or so to ask him about it, which will also give the weather some time to get nicer too.

I'll PM you with any details I get or post them on here for everyone to see.

Welcome to join - No time set yet, still waiting on a few more responses.

We're most likely meeting in the Worcester area then possibly heading to Boston - bit of a drive for you being basically the complete opposite direction :)
 
#9 ·
Honestly, not really. My commute is 495 to the Pike to 95N, and my office is about a mile from there. So I'm doing 98% highways.

Worcester, on the other hand, I know most streets by heart because I bike and run a lot. I have an idea for a few good spots in Worcester, but I can certainly browse around Boston since I'm only 15 minutes from it at work.

From the sounds of it, my photographer buddy has a few good ideas for places in Boston.

If you, or anyone has any spots feel free to suggest them.

Good keep me posted it would be nice to meet up. Just keep in mind i'm light on the mods right now. Maybe i can get my system put in before we schedule this. All i need to do is choose a HU and order some wire. I know irishman77 is in the area and i think dougefresh is in boston.
 
#14 ·
Don't worry about how many mods you have, I don't have many myself besides lighting. It's just a meet N greet and will help my buddy out with getting his Photography off the ground. Yeah Douge is right near Boston, but I haven't seen him post on here in a week or so.

yea id definitely want to be a part of this, i live 20 min north of Boston
20min north of Boston? In the Saugus/Revere area or more inland? I only ask because my office is in Saugus and I frequently travel to Winthrop and Tremont Street in Boston.

Gotcha. Just wondering because there is a similar username there.

So I haven't logged onto here in yearsss, but I decided to check back and saw this haha

I'd be down if this happens near the end of May, I have graduation and some other fun events planned for the next two weeks though, so I won't really be around till then

-----------------
EDIT:
I might also be able to bring another 6 owner I know from NY if he's still around, and one of my best friends has a nice black RX-8 that he could contribute too if this isnt 6-exclusive :p

Also, i know i havent logged in for several years but apparently my username is now "Blake" but to the best of my knowledge I started this account as "steelwagon6"... well at least Blake is my actual name and not some arbitrary replacement name haha
 
#24 ·
Haha that's pretty good timing to come back to the forum! No date is set in stone yet so I can't tell you if it'll be soon or not. I'm hoping it's soon, but at the rate people keep replying to this I might have to wait a little while just so we can plan everything out accordingly.

Cool, you're from Malboro - I just recently signed up for the men's hockey league at the New England Sports Center and used to play there all the time when I was real young. I drive past it every day on my way home from work.

And I haven't made it 6 exclusive, but the more people we get the more we'll have to plan for some good spots. If your friend wants to show up and be part of the shoot, my buddy says it's $10 a car for the whole night, but if he wants to just hang out, then it's free :)

I just stumbled across this thread. I would be happy to come through for the photo shoot. Im live in the city but I work off route1 in wakefield. Keep me posted on the meetup date.
 
#37 ·
I am always looking for any 6's even slightly modified but I rarely come across any besides 1 ricered out one sitting at a repair shop with a blown motor. I was starting to feel like I was the only guy around who even cared.

haha i never know this many people in this area cared either! good to know there is some more mazda love out there. Its rare you see a 6 with work done to it.

I had an accord with a huge white honda decal on the back windshield try to race me on my way into work, he almost won by totaling my car since he couldn't stay in his own lane... I never understood people need to re-promote thier car. My next mod needs to be MAZDA covering the whole front winshield so I can barley see just so everyone one knows my car manufacturer lol... NOT. They do realize they are just giving honda a bad reputation along with themselves.

No they don't. They're just dumb and want to act "cool."

Don't know about you but when I was a teenager being "cool" wasn't about being an idiot but seems like that's the new trend in this country.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

But anyways, an update on the meet. We're thinking it will start no later than 3PM, that way we have plenty of time to get some pictures done of everyone's cars, find a nice place to go for group shots, and hopefully arrive with Boston in the background around sunset for some final pictures.

I honestly didn't expect this many people to be interested (but I'm excited that there are). And you have to think that pictures will take a little while, then we have to organize meeting at the other place(s), and we can plan for some eats at some point if we're going to be out that long. If people don't mind we can take extra time on here to plan out absolutely what will happen, that way we're not scrambling around when the date comes around, or we're not all standing there saying: "so what now?"

7 P's guys - Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance :D
