Anyone who would be interested in FINALLY getting a regular group together, lets do it!

Please message me the following info:
1) Name
2) Phone #
3) Email
4) City you live in
5) What day and time you can meet

Also would be interested in suggestions:
1) good meeting place
2) Frequency we should get the group together

I will create a database, query all the results, and pick a good central location and time that works best for the majority.

So for everyone who has been waiting, the talking about it phase is now officially over and the doing it phase has begun :)

I don't speak for everyone, but as for myself, if I had the time, I would probably just take a hike down to see the DC (dub cartel). They meet on wednesdays in miami...

The thought of having enough extra time that I could go "hang out" somewhere on a regular basis though is very entertaining though.

Thanks for the info.

Based on the other south florida post that was started a few years back, I guess I thought there would be enough TDI folks in this part of Florida to warrant its own group. Sounds like Miami it is if these responses don't pick up.

You went a VW hang out, or a TDI hang out? (they're two very different things)

It's a good idea, but most everyone always seems too busy down here. Best bet may be to try to set up a GTG like they have up north. There might be enough interest, then again there might not.

Just to clarify:

This proposed group would be for TDI's, not a general vw group. Also it will not necessarily meet in Miami. Just depends on what the most convenient location would be for the majority of group members.

I think if we even only get 5 or 10 cars together, it would be pretty easy to facilitate something that works for everyone, maybe meet once a month or so.

Whoever is interested, just shoot me a message with your info and as soon as we have a few together Ill set something up.

so true...I'm pretty sure the dub cartel is a vw hangout not a tdi hang out...probably has a few ricers....
Actually it does not. Im a Dub Cartel member and have been for well over a year now. No ricers at all. Also, not a TDI specific meet. But there are 6 TDIs, myself included (2 ALH, 2PD (one owner owning an ALH as well), and CR). However, the other members don't come regularly. Usually its just me and the CR. Feel free to come by on a wednesday night! :D We're a friendly bunch and we don't bite! :p

I'd also like the idea of a local TDI club meet. Rather it be weekly or biweekly or something of the such. I'm up for meeting local dubber, especially diesel dubs!

I've seen a lot of 2009+ Jetta Wagons. 9/10 were TDI. Im sure they'd be interested too if they knew. Once we get something going, we have to get flyers!

Hey guys. I'm kind of new this. I have a 2009 Jetta TDI (DSG, 40,000 miles). I live in ATL but I'll be moving to Tampa this summer. I think it would be cool to meet some other TDI owners.

As usual another South Florida GTG thread goes the way of the Dodo bird.

Bummer, and I just showed up... I guess I'll just have to talk to my wife when she get's home with her 5spd TDI since my DSG TDI is already sitting in the driveway. :)

I read the comments about the Dub Cartel meets, but that's a haul from the north end of PB. Anyone ever been to the VWVortex 561 gatherings? Based on their ongoing thread over there, they don't seem to be TDI types, but I suppose it might be fun to crash one of their evenings unannounced if we had a few Local TDI's interested. ;)

Someday, I'll crash one of their evenings unannounced with one of my Corrado_G60's, if I can ever get fully employed to where I can afford to work on it again.

I want one!!!
I know this is off topic....

Hey guys, I know this is off topic, and please show forgiveness for me asking this here but Im a little desperate for help.

I am looking for someone in or around Miami that could check a car out for me, specifically someone who knows how to check for cam wear.

I found a 2005.5 with 120k and would just like to see the car get checked out before I buy.

I will pay for this of course, if someone is interested, please PM me.

Once again, sorry for the distruption :eek:
