San Diego third geners!

Hello I'm visiting from San Antonio would like to get the scoop with any car meets that happen during the week or even Sunday night. I won't be here for the weekEnd which is prime time for car meets. Please reply for any info, if a possible maybe even would like to go for a ride in a third gen near the beach, haha thanks!

Re: San Diego third geners!

Sorry man, this place is dead for any Fbody guys. Ive been trying for the past year to get something going or find a member with a cool car. I do drive a 4th gen, but still I love 3rd gens so much more.

As for roads along the beach, San Diego has none. Maybe down south through National City, but no one wants to go down there. But a cruise on multiple freeways is nice from time to time.

Re: San Diego third geners!

Thanks for the reply, I've been just sight seeing and have only seen two third gens so far. Went to Hollywood and saw a decent fresh paint black 88, also a typhoon and a grand national. I will keep my eyes peeled thanks for the reply again,

Re: San Diego third geners!

We sometimes hold an annual cruise down to one of the San Diego casinos from LA/OC counties. You guys could cruise up to meet us when we hold the next one.

Re: San Diego third geners!

Yeah,
SD seems a little dead car wise.
If you want a nice drive, hop on North Torrey Pines Rd and head north. You'll end up through Del Mar and can go north up to Ocean Side. The road changes names, but it's the one that goes along the coast.

Re: San Diego third geners!

We’re in the planning stages of an SC3G San Diego Meet & Super Cruise (Palomar Mountain Road) for either June or August of this year. So not to worry, we’ll be bringing plenty of 3rd gen action your way

In the meantime you guys are more than welcome to get a group of 3rd gens together and cruise up to our April Meet in the City of Industry on the 7th.

For more information you can check out the SC3G April Meet (Frisco's/Speed Zone) Saturday April 7th @ 6PM thread here in the SoCal Forum or our SC3G April Meet event page on our clubs Facebook Page.

Re: San Diego third geners!

And yea, its unfortunate that down here 3rd gens are very rare to see. The only place I really see them is in the boneyards
