I don't know of any regular meets for Lexus, but usually on the weekends people like to go to Burlington Coat Factory down at Westheimer and HWY 6 late at night.

I live in Sugar Land and work at a local Lexus dealership in sales. From your sig. you car is nice!

What day is considered the weekend? What time is considered "late at night"? I live in Victoria, travel to Houston every Friday because I have an office on Westheimer and Wilcrest. Occasionally stay the weekend there. I usually go right by that Burlington Coat Factory on the way home.... also which Lexus Dealership are you at? I know a handful of people at the SMLexus Dealership. I also go by there pretty frequently too.

Usually, they congragate around 9:30 - 10 till god knows when. I'm almost 40 and can't keep up with the youngsters. I think it happens more often on Saturdays than Fridays. If you stay the weekend here in Houston, try to drop by. Let me know if you do and I'll try to stay up late! HAHA!

I work over here at Westside Lexus on I-10 and Kirkwood.

I know what you mean, I AM 40! Not far from 41 actually... but 10PM isn't terribly late. Of course if you work on Saturday that means you gotta get up early. Not exactly sure where I10 and Kirkwood is. How far is that from Westheimer and Sam Houston Pkwy? A good friend of mine lives off I10 and Sheppard, but don't remember seeing Kirkwood. The next time I will be there for the weekend is probably going to be Aug 23d for the DUB Show. Either I'm going to put the LS or the Escalade in the show. Depends on whether or not the Wheels are done for the LS.

Homer,
You are relatively close to me as i'm in down here in clear lake.. I don't mind going to westheimer and hwy 6 every once in awhile but driving 30 plus miles to hangout every weekend is a bit for me.. Maybe we could form a weekly meet in Sugarland or Pearland for us Lexus folks in southern houston areas to meet in a centalize location. I'm just a couple years younger than You and LS430R so i think we would make a cool group to hang with. Maybe we can have a meet at Buffalo Wings or Hooters once a week and hangout, talk cars and grab a bite.. Tell me what you think about having something like that weekly? ..Also, i wouldn't mine meeting somewhere and rolling to Burlingtion together every so often..I'm open to any suggestions, let me know..

Don

Yup, there are cops with Lasers on the Beltway. Also, an EZTag would help greatly. It wouldn't take long to get to and from CL to that area.

we can set something up, maybe a few guys getting together with our wives for wings or something. there's a buffalo wild wings at Westheimer and Royal Oaks, Next to the HEB at kirkwood/westheimer.

We can always find a empty row of parking over there.

I-10 runs East/West just like Westheimer. It's about 3 miles north of Wesheimer. In case you haven't noticed, Houston roads are built on a grid runing E/W and N/S.

Please, noone go to the Burlington meet, its full of stupid little kids and people just waiting to follow you home and steal your car. All the meets are starting to get bad, all the kids around here start going and messing everything up. Please be careful, do not go to that meet, I know people that have gone and have had their car stolen, or have been followed home and are now worried about their car.
Theres a Planet-Zero meet going on this Saturday, should be a nice little meet, and they have cops and other mature people making sure everything stays in line. I may go out there for a little bit if the girl doesnt make any other plans.

PS.
How you doin Homer? I finally got put on commission here at work, gonna be ready to get a new ride here in the next few months, gotta let those checks pile up a bit for a good down payment.
