Winter in the Pacific Northwest typically means a major reduction in the amount of import car meets. Yesterday, XXX Rootbeer in Issaquah, WA, was overrun with import car owners itching to get out. The weather was perfect for January with the temperature remaining in the 40's. An estimated 500 cars showed up throughout the day.
The limited size of XXX Rootbeer's lot meant that people had to park in the surrounding parking lots. With the exception of the business directly behind XXX calling a tow truck, the other surrounding businesses didn't seem to mind.

Was a fun meet, definitely ready for the spring/summer stuff =D
any skylines?
Yeah there was an R33 GT-R there. He and I left when the tow trucks were called. Check out Jamie Santillans album (linked above) for a few pics of the R33.
there are some great pix… thanks for sharing
Tow truck was called? Wow, that was really weak. Really lame. Really weak. What else can I say? The surrounding business should embrace the idea, not fight it. It brings traffic to the area, and benefitted everyone. Think abt how much more gas they sold, how many more burgers they sold, free advertising, how much more sodas they sold, etc. etc. It’s called common sense, those idiots who called the tow trucks can shoved it up their asses!
