Guarantee none of you have done this trip before

Post by topcarbon » Tue May 24, 2011 1:09 pm

I think I am the first to drive from Scottsdale Arizona (one home) to my other home in Puerto Vallarta. The trip was wonderful and done over three days. I didn't rush the trip and enjoyed the roads which were mostly excellent.
First day was Scottsdale to Guyamus. On the ocean and a perfect 85 degrees.
Second day was to Mazatlan. Much more humid and the waves were huge.
Third day to Vallarta.

1200 miles later.

So the Z is home in Mexico for now.

I'm a cyclist, who, after many dull years of Volvo and VW estates has reverted to driving a '07 Z4R 2.0i Ti Silver for the pure pleasure of it.

How do you handle all the pestering from the time share salesman? I've been there a couple of times and it drives me nuts...nice place but can't stand everyone trying to squeeze you for a buck all the time.

Sorry, no hard feelings but I may have told you where to go the last time I was there :P :rofl:

I have a place in Chandler now so don't go to Mexico anymore. I'll PM you next time I'm down south (September) and see if you're up for a spin somewhere. I'm going on a four day trip in late Sept with the Arizona club....to Silver City and elsewhere, might be a bit of an old folks run but what the hell, its four days of cruising corners. :thumbsup:

Wiil do, BTW what do you do for insurance when you go south ?

( I was po'd at the street peddlers more than the real salesmen, they were all pretty good.)
