Well, somehow we manage. There are also Porsches, Ferrari's, Lambo's and other exotic sports cars that survive the sometimes chaotic traffic conditions here. :cool:

Btw, nice Mustang you got there! There's a fairly large group of Classic Mustang (circa 60's) owners here too. Most of them imported from Japan would you believe?

welcome last5oh!

Tom, i finally installed my flares and re-installing bumper support. I tell you, makes a big difference. I met with andaya last weekend and you should check out his ride, same color as ours and his is like an ultimate in MOD. He is selling his 22" wheels and tires though...

Pics! Pics! Pics!

Ah... you can only go so much with larger rims without the car looking like a "kalesa" (horse-drawn cart). Case in point... on the Right are the stock 60 series tire and rim from my Mustang, on the left the 45 series 'Upgrade'

When viewd on the car it was barely acceptable, any larger rim and thinner tire would have looked awfull. Daylight within the rims is just not cool.

With upgraded brakes - 13" discs and twin piston calipers it looks much better.

I can't understand those sport-compacts with 20" rims, thin tires and daylight visible in the rims - and drum brakes too!!!!

Welcome GJ ! I too am from Manila and drive an 02 E53 X5 3.0d euro spec. You will be surprised to see so many bimmers roaming the streets of Manila. :D

Yes I believe you... I was there last August (stayed in a hotel in Makati) and saw quite a number.

BTW...I was just told about a 'new"? Expressway that links the former Subic and Clark U.S. bases. The photos in the email showed very little traffic on nice roads that looked like they were in southern California.

Looks like the ideal place to 'test' the X!.

I'm guessing you'll have to pay a toll.

Hey everyone in the Tri-State, if I do not have to work tomorrow (Sunday 15 June) I am going to head to this for the Phillipine independence day party. Where is the best place to park?

i'm not sure i'll make it tomorrow being it father's day and all. The park itself have some decent parking lot if you get there on time otherwise you'll have to park on the side streets..fwiw, enjoy!

I travel that route at least 4x a month and it is a great place to ride the X. The countryside scenery's just great that you sometimes forget that you're going over 140mph!

First 2 pics were taken before it opened. Our bike group was able to do a test run. We were only allowed to use the opposite lane then. Last one was taken a few days after it opened to the public. And, yes, toll fees required.

Hey guys I posted a few pictures at our Lunch meeting in Jersey City! It's in the Meet forums: http://www.xoutpost.com/x5world-x3wor...ne-08-a-2.html

Didn't take that many pictures because I was enjoying the company!

Good Looking pics ! Hard to tell which looks better X5 's or Pinoys ? :rofl:

And mabuhay to the new guys joining this thread!

Blueagle, just got back from Bangkok and got me a CF hood and rear hatch roundels. Will try to post the pics here. The weather there was great and was monitoring the typhoon from there. Felt sorry for my wife and kid though.

Anyway, I might be available this Saturday. We can meet at UCC the Fort 8am. Will confirm.

For the typhoon? or for buying the CF hood and roundels? LOL:bustingup

Speaking on that note, anyone from Binalonan, Pangasinan (sp) in this board or know someone? My mother was asking when I was on the phone with her today.

Must be a "pinoy' thing!

A bit of history...during the Spanish era, our ancestors were told to always keep your arms together so as not to be suspected of stealing valuables from the colonizers lest you be sent to the dungeons of Intramuros. http://smileys.on-my-web.com/reposit...inking-006.GIF

Hahaha...

then what about these 2 guys with hands in their pockets?.... checking to see if anyone stole their family jewels?

Hey Tom,
Those are nice pics! At least, we got to see you guys.....make sure you post some pics of the CF roundels you got from HK. I having my interior Carbon Fiber'ed currently and will post pics as soon as they become available. In the meantime, here are latest pics of my AE's and 4.6/4.8 rear fenders! :thumbup:

Sweeeet Bimmer! I did post the pics of the CF roundels at the E53 Forums. Check it out.

How did i miss that? Nice roundels, cant believe they are reps, very nice!

Thanks! They have lots of badges there too such as AC Schnitzer, Hamman, M3, M5, etc...

Got me a couple of small ones for my bike helmet too. :thumbup:

Bimmer360 - you have a nice freakin' X...awesome color and mods

bimmer 360- nice X5!! i love those HID headlights!! :cool: is it from ebay?

:iagree:

Salamat mga kabayan! I'm no photoshop expert so if anyone's willing to merge our pics together, kindly do so please.

Need Help finding Blue BBS Caps
 

I been looking for some Blue BBS Caps similar to the one below. Found this thread from Japan. Any Pinoy going to Japan or know where I can get some of these caps? I need 5 caps. I would greatly appreciate it very much.

Don't like the Red BBS Caps because I don't have Brembo brakes (yet) and it's played out. And there is none Blue BBS in the states.

The Caps are for a 19" BBS CH. If they were Blue CF that would be great! It would go perfect with my Topaz Blue 330Ci.
http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...udie/480-3.jpg

WHy not just get the blue BMW carbon fiber stick-ons? You can still use them with red Brembos down the line.... they should make the calipers stand out more. Don't mix red center caps with the Brembos they will be a distraction and lessen the impact. My $0.02.

Hey Pinoy! I lived at Clark AFB from 1968-1971, I learned to swear in the native tongue.....that count for anything? Wonderful people, Bagio City was my favorite respit from the heat and humidity.

Hey there zzzzkev! Kamusta ka? Clark AFB is so much different now although some of the infrastructure built by the USAF is still there. The airport is now an international airport and there are a lot of commercial establishments around.

Baguio City too is a lot different. Too much vehicular traffic and pollution. But inspite of all that, it's still a popular destination for some cool mountain fresh air.

What's your X5?

aren't you the one who worked on your thermostat and water pump last weekend? I didn't know you're pinoy. Here as well, it's good to know. :thumbup:

Bimmer360,

What is the replacement of your X5 ? Is it an X6, Cayenne, or audi ?????

Hey bimmer360, why are you selling your X5? you've worked so hard to mod it and now you're almost there, you're getting rid of it.

Your ride looks awesome and its exactly how I wanted mine if I had a blue one...too bad you're selling.

I'm getting an Audi as DD, and will just get an X6 in couple of years. And also, i will have a job that is like 30 miles away, compared to 12 miles currently. V8 would be very ugly.

see post 264

I'll miss your new mods Bimmer because it helps me decide on what to add on to mine considering we both have the same color. Not only that, I still don't know your first name! :bustingup

lol, check my signature for the thermostat DIY, its been there. hehehe.

Any new X5 Pinoys in the house ? :D

Kumusta!

I'm a Marinduqueno in Maryland and came here in '71. Just joined recently and currently in the market for 4.8. Once I drove one, I was hooked! :D

Hopefully I'll be joining the owner ranks soon. Though probably gotta wait until Manheim in October for a good deal.

Anybody in the Metro DC area can give me a holler anytime and maybe we can hookup. I bet there are some Texas Hold'em poker players around.:smokin:

Cya ... Jose

welcome TwinsPoppa... yeah, 4.8 is a beast, hope you get a good deal...

:xoutpost: try searching on autotrader.com also. good luck kabayan!!

Hey Franc, you're from PA? Are you familiar with the Wayne/Philly area?

I'm planning a trip to Philly to visit a brother. Planning to book a weekend stay at a Courtyard by Mariott in Wayne. I believe its "Courtyard Philadelphia Devon" at 762 West Lancaster Ave.

I need a little HUMINT here (eyes on the ground)... it that a 'safe' neighborhood? I wouldn't want to be driving into a strange city and find out I'm booking into a hotel in the 'hood'.

ANyone else from Philly here?

Oh BTW, satellite image on Google Earth (for what its worth) shows open-air parking near to what appears to be a townhouse complex. Not quite the place I'd like to park my car overnight, but its the best deal in town for the dates I'm looking at.

Hey - Wayne/Devon is not the "hood" it's way outside Philly to be part of the hood. It's a nice little quite town...your okay parking your ride outside.

THANKS!

I'm going to philly (chinatown area) too in oct for business. I'll be there oct.15-17. So far I hadn't had any prob with parking cause the valet put the cars in the garage.

:iagree: last5oh i agree with major... just dont forget to lock your car. :D

Another Pinoy from North Dallas but originally from Las Pinas..

Kamusta po!

Just a new member few months ago...residing in Toronto,Canada.
Mabuhay!!!!!!

Welcome vrprime ! I am also based in the DFW-Forth worth area . I frequently travel to the Philippines too.

:xoutpost: Vimx5 & vrprime

Any one of you Pinoys coming home for the Christmas holidays ?

Negative, I wish to go next year though on my mother's 80th b-day.

Any Pinoy watching Manny Pacquiao vs De La Hoya, Dec 6 in Vegas or are y'all going to watch it in PPV?

We're gonna have a Texas Hold'em poker night and watch the fight too.

same agenda here..hold'em poker, PPV, and some liquor to make things interesting. mabuhay ang pinoy! Pacman all the way!:thumbup:

Back home , fight day will be like a holiday in the Philippines.........

Hey guys newbie here. Just picked up my '06 4.4 tonite. Other than already missing my STi, I'm liking the X5 so far.. :)

Mabuhay mga pinoy!!

Hey Rod and Jay - how are you guys? Where's my future wife that your honeys were supposed to find for me?

I just found this site a couple of weeks ago...I didn't realize so many Pinoys were into X5's Great thread everyone! I,ll post some pics as soon as I figure out how to.

yes there are a couple of pinoys here. where in NY r u from? we got few in jersey.:thumbup:

wassup Ger... well "Good things come to those who wait.." :rofl: :rofl: whatever...

so when are we going to have a pinoy meet again? tri-state pinoys are all welcome... and of course all members of X5world.

How about we try after the holidays...maybe Feb/Mar time frame? Headed to Tampa Bay for Xmas and try to get back here before New Year...have to get ready for Grad School and I already have homework assignments (yuck!!!)

Welcome fellow pinoy...am one of the few pinoys that can not speak the native lingu....just a regular coconut (brown outside, white inside):rofl:

Originally from the Bronx but now living in the suburbs (Rockland County right on the Bergen County border) Where in Jersey are you?:thumbup:

tbc111,

Merry X'mas !!! You sure know how to get the attention of our X5 Pinoys in the US......:D

May somebody can organize a meet here in Cali. Para mas masaya di ba?

bibingka :mmm: :mmm: ... my sister tried her own US version of bibingka, it was good but not even close to the real bibingka...

manigong bagong taon..

What's up Pinoys?!!! Musta na ang lahat? Just wanna say Happy New Year to all...

Chad

Happy New Year to all X5 Pinoys !

Any Pionys from OZ on here?

coeee fr castle hill :rofl:

musta 'pre......

musta po =)

Welcome ! any pics of your X5 ?

posted a quick pic from camera phone here http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e53-forum/57080-newbie.html =)

heres mine.. stock standard at the moment...

hey NjR7T2,

why did you sell you sti? I too am missing mine.. but enjoying the x5

Pinoy from Houston!

Welcome to the world! Wow - there are lots of Pinoys in this board...totally awesome!

Ilocano in St. Louis!:thumbup:

Dude where is your family from? My dad is from Lingayen and mom is from Pangasinan...going there for the first time next year:thumbup: hope I can bring my surfboards without paying too much extra $$$

My dad is from Nueva Ecija and my mom is from Isabela. Is it your first time to go to the Philippines or the province? You probably don't want to surf in the waters near Manila. I'm not sure if you can even surf with the wave. I don't think the waves are big enough. Maybe you can boogie board when there is a typhoon. Further south like Zamboanga and Visaya have nicer beaches. Some hotels and resorts are as cheap as $20 a week. It's always a good time whenever I go back:thumbup:

Just don't go too far south!

long live the ilocanos.. ilocos, baguio, isabela...

Any other new X5 Pinoys in the forum ?

It will be my first time coming back. So, I will be the lost "American" trying to find my way around. The 'rents are going in Feb 2010 and will join them 2 weeks later. I know it is a year from now, but want to get the lay of the land before I go.
Hope that I can rent a car or motorcycle. I know I want to hit the beaches and clubs. Where are the hottest clubs in Cebu?

:iagree: I second the motion...unless if you want to have some "thrill"...:nervous:

If any of you X5 Pinoy guys plan to come to Manila, give us a call so we can meet up and intro you to some of our local bmw guys back home..:D

May X5 ba sa Pinas?

Major, when you're all set, just email me or Blueagle. Looking forward to your visit. Mabuhay!

yes, BlueEagle and TBC are based in the phils and they are driving X5s.. i believe X5Whyt has an X too...

can you guys confirm if we have a BMW dealer in Phils?

Because you'll hit Borneo and if you don't have a passport, they will keep you there.

For real though if you go too far south and somehow end up in the jungle, you'll have the al qaeda besides stepping on a dwende w/o saying "tabi tabi po" or running into a chanak.:rofl:

If you haven't been there in awhile, it's changed a lot. You really don't have to rent a car nor would you want to drive a car let alone a bike. It's not as bad in the province. I've went clubbing in the province before. It's different. If you are looking for similar atmoshpere as the US, you would want to hang out in the metro area and hit TBC111 or blueangel.

Okay ... I wanna see a dwende and a chanak! :D :rofl:

Yeah, I'm thinking most won't be able to handle the humidity/heat so will want to be where there's aircon (city). Heard about the traffic too. I'd be afraid of the mosquitos the most. I hear nets are kinda useless. They're small so they get through the net but can't get out after being bloated from all the blood it got from ya! :rofl:

BTW ... I haven't been back since 1971 ... hopefully make it back on one of my China trips! :thumbup:

There are 5 or 6 BMW dealers in the Philippines if I'm not mistaken.

tbc111 is correct. Just let us know your final schedule and we would gladly show you around Metro Manila.. You would be surprised that there are so many bmw cars on the road in Manila.........Of course nothing beats an X5 standing tall over all those japanese and american cars...........:rofl:

Hey guys/gals living in Manila...

Check this out, awesome rides:
http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthr...15#post9410015

Guys,

FYI, that guy from E46 fanatics forum belongs to our bimmer club philippines group. I am also a member of that club . We have a complete collection of 9 M3's ( all models) with an X3 and X5 ( that's me !).

To all you X5 Pinoys,

That is just a teaser so if you get the chance to visit Manila, you are in for a treat. Do not forget to bring your might SLR cameras...:nanana:

crazy thought - I know there are many good exhaust shops in the philippines. perhaps one of the pinoy brothers can scout some place that would fabricate a bolt on exhaust system for the X5, then we can get a bulk to be shipped out here. This would be good because I believe the exhaust hangers for both the 3.0 and V8 are similar. what say you? would the cost justify the means?

X5 Pinoys,

If you are interested to know more about BMW cars in the Phlippines, please feel free to register at our website at

www.bimmersclub.org.ph

Please introduce yourself and mention that you are a member of xoutpost.com c/o blueagle.....:D

I have twin boys (kambal) myself, both refuses to sleep because they have a built-in playmates all the time.

Hey What's going on Mij? Sorry for the delayed response.. Anyways, I sold my STi 'cause I was looking for something with a much higher ground clearance to accomodate New Jersey's "very nice" winter.. ;)

I am, however, missing driving that turbocharged boxer engine.. :( Oh well, I might be moving down to Orlando, Florida soon so perhaps I'll give the M3 a try since they don't get snow down there. A rear wheel drive car should be just fine.. :driver:


Happy Motoring Pinoys!

Chad of Nj. :cool:

Wow... a whole thread on Pinoy's that drive X5's. :rofl:

Anyway... I'm American born Pinoy (but traveled to the PI many times). My Dad is from Quezon City and my Mom is from Laguna. Though now most of my family on my Mom's side now lives in Parang, Marikina, Manila. I used to visit the PI all time time before I got married. When I go back to the PI, I always find myself just staying in Manila most of the time. Can't stay away from the Karaoke! :lmao:

My wife is Visaya and she's from Zamboanga City. Haven't been back to the PI in years... I guess it's because of the kids.

Anyway... great to know there is a huge Pinoy support for the X5! Glad to join the family... Grabe talaga!!!

welcome fellow tri-stater, yeah there's a bunch of us pinoys here hence the dedicated thread. :thumbup:

Welcome Rmak !

jayjay04X5,

I noticed you already registered at our bimmersclub.org.ph website. Please intro yourself and post pics of your bimmers in our newbie section so all the other members can welcome you . Full acess will be granted to you upon you posting in our newbie thread...:thumbup:

To all other X5 Pinoys,

You are all welcome to register and please post intro about yourself and bimmers your won. Pics of your bimmers would be highly appreciated.

hey blue, i just posted one on the newbie section, thanks pare...

pics coming soon... bit busy here at work.... salamat ulet...

Fellow tri-stater pinoys - how about a meet sometime this year? We had a meet with jayjay and gerry last year and it was great..maybe this year we can have more joining us. feel free to throw in dates/places etc.
My suggestion is to meet up on May 2 'pacquiao vs hatton fight' - we'll just have to find a place that can host this..

good idea, poohkyaw vs hatton... dont forget to bring some beers and a designated driver of course...

lets do it... im in...

Hahaha ... yup, know what you mean. They always have to have what the other has too - can get crazy! :rofl:

Good idea!

May 2 Pacquiao vs Hatton is around the corner.. Let's get this meet going.. suggestions for venues? any bars/restaurants that would host this event that you may know of? Jay, check if any in Jersey City or Bayonne are hosting. anyone? - if not the 'fight' meet maybe just a regular meet would do.. it'd be nice to see more pinoys and their X5s..

the boxing match should be available at HOOTERs...

I'm kinda new to this forum, but count me in...please advise place and date. Can we bring the kids?

there's a hooters in wayne, nj next to willowbrook mall. parking is great and lots of car enthusiasts go there.. nasioc (subaru) guys go there for meets sometimes so its car friendly environment..

Hopefully you guys can make the June 6 meet in CT! I'm bringing my kids there.

I'm keeping an eye here to see what you guys decide. I might be able to make this meet too but not w/o my kids unfortunately. We'll see ...

i love kids..wife is preggy with our 1st one.. i love spending time with my nephew whenever he's around.. i think kids should be allowed in hooters..it's just a restaurant. as long as they're supervised at all times i don't see any probs..

Hahaha Kids are nice especially if they are not yours... you play with them then you go home.

congrats Rod, when is she due?

i always bring my son to hooters, no problem....

Where and what time is the meet in CT? I will try to make it if it is somewhat close.

Thanks.

Check here for all the details.
http://www.xoutpost.com/x5world-x3wor...amford-ct.html

There will be a lot of people and rides to checkout - I mean see, you know what I mean.:rofl:

Of course, Pinoys will be represented! :D

Guys,

Do not forget to post pics here in this thread...

P.S. We would like to reiterate our invitation to all X5 Pinoys to join our local BMW club called " Bimmer Club Philippines". Please register in our website and post some intro about yourself in order for us to give you full access.

Welcome to BimmerClub.org.ph

I joined the forum sometime ago but I still yet to get my full access.. I'll try to post something in the Newbie section.. :thumbup:

Chad :cool:

Ok - here's the deal, Eugene and I were talking and somewhat agreed that 04/04/09 Saturday is a good time to set a Pinoy Meet. Before we start a separate thread, we need to know who'd be interested.

* 04.04.09 - Around Lunch time
Jersey City - Fiesta Grill if still cold and/or drive to Liberty State Park for pictures and weather permitting have a BBQ instead.

Liberty State Park

* Family friendly setting so you can bring your family of course.


Rod - Me and the wife
Eugene - TQ2K
Richard - NjRx7T2

Hmmm .. this is tempting .. its about the same distance as Stamford. Can't you guys meet me 1/2 way! :D :rofl:

* 04.04.09 - Around Lunch time
Jersey City - Fiesta Grill if still cold and/or drive to Liberty State Park for pictures and weather permitting have a BBQ instead.

Liberty State Park

Rod - Me and the wife
Eugene - TQ2K
Richard - NjRx7T2
Jayjay - jj04X5 (plus wife and kid)

We can meet at King Of Prussia, but there wouldn't be any Filipino food or SanMig Lights....

common jose, youre not giving us a "preview" of your X before the CT meet?

:rofl: I didn't know it was a priority! :D


Where's the flip food coming from? You guys or buying? Do I have to bring something? Are we doing potluck?

oh you know Fiesta Grill is also BYOB - so buy the booze, bring it here and buy pulutan and we're good... then you can also do grocery for your pinoy food needs..it's like little manila in JC..

Okay .. sign me up and I'll ask my wife tonight if she has any probs with this.

this should be fun..there are few other pinoys from around so hopefully they'd be able to join us... I guess we can keep this in discussion in this thread, but if other people wanna join regardless of race, they're more than welcome to come..

Paging Gerry (Major04).... :D

oh well, i guess hes still out of the country....

Jose, just bring yourself and your family... Fiesta Grill is a flip resto so dont worry about our lunch... Liberty State park is 10-15 minutes away from it...

Rod, i think its better if we make a reservation at FGrill at least the day before...

:thumbup: :thumbup:

another pinoy here from phillips ranch, ca............am driving an 04 3.0 X5.....musta sa lahat ng pinoy members!!!:thumbup:

Jay/Rod,

Hey guys - I should be able to make this...I decided, not go to ATL that weekend.

Superocean - Welcome pare!

Eugene, that's not the parking lot of fiesta grill, but they do have a parking lot. we just need to either be there earlier or later than 12PM as it tends to get pack around 12pm.

Gerry, glad you can make it.

JayJay - We'll have to wait and get a final headcount so we can reserve our own spot..

Hopefully more can make it this time. Paging TriState pinoys!! RMak, bbjr c'mon now..

eugene try google maps street view...

I have actually been keeping an eye on this meet and plus it would be great to meet other Pinoy's!! I still haven't gotten the ok from my wife (her work schedule) but if we do go, i'll have to bring both my kids as well. Plus, I also have a Pinoy co-worker who has a 2002 X5 3.0 (his girlfriend just recently bought a 328xi, so who knows what they will drive) and he's interested in possibly going. He just bought a set of 20's which make my 19's look miniscule. :damn: We both love our X5's and we talk about them all the time. :rofl: Also, he's got 2 more Pinoy buddies with X5's. I think they drive a 4.6is and a 3.0. It would be great if we can all go!

It's hard for me to commit at this time... I'll know probably in a month in advance before the meet.

But its only two weeks away now! :rofl:

Oh my God... how time flies!! :wow:

For some reason, I thought the meet was in June?? :dunno:

Sorry, I should have read some of the earlier posts. I see you're all meeting in Jersey City. I'll have to see what my wife thinks... :banghead:

So does this mean I have to get my car washed and vacuumed? :D
Liberty park should be a nice place to hangout especially for pix taking..

Pulutan and possibly alky? Fine I guess I'll join you guys.. :thumbup:


Chad :cool:

im gonna ask my wife to prepare some homemade espasol... :thumbup:

yes james, we'll be waiting for those pics... enjoy...

mabuhay!!!

I think RMak is referring to the June 6 X5World meet... This april 4 is just a quick pre june 6 pinoy meet so if we do go to the june 6 meet we have an idea how each of us look like...

I don't know about you ... but I don't really care how everybody looks .. just get me some turon, sago and halo halo! :D :rofl:

there's a Red Ribbon few blocks away from Fiesta Grill, and if you dare, they have a new Jollibee in Queens, NY (Crazy line, no parking):thumbup:

jollibee? hahaha, i remember the opening day, me and my lovely wife drove to queens ny thinking we can have some pinoy burgers, yeah right... waiting time was at least 3-4 hours... the line was just too long (around the whole block) :rofl: so we just pictures and left... :rofl:

I did not want to flood the thread, so i decided to make our own thread in the meets forums.

http://www.xoutpost.com/x5world-x3wor...tml#post593119

I'm about a 10 minute drive from the new Jollibee, it's always busy there. I haven't had the Champ in years! To this day, I still haven't gone there yet but I had a cousin who brought us some spaghetti. Masarap!! I've heard rumors that they are already looking to build another one.

great..now cross the tunnel and join us on april 4th..

:thumbup:

Yeah, I mean ... I'm 4 hours away! :stickpoke :rofl:

Trust me... I want to go! I even asked my co-worker who has an X5 if he'd be interested. But it's my wife's call. :doh:

If anyone here is from Zamboanga City and speaks Visaya, that'll be a big help. :bustingup

Whatever happened to ... honey, do me a favor and I'll do YOU! ;pervert; :D :rofl:

2 kids are enough for me! :bustingup

Oops! Forgot about that .... the boys are first and maybe last for me! :D :rofl:

I just found out that I'm working that day but I WILL follow up after.. :thumbup:

Let's just hope the weather would be nice for picture taking....

Chad :cool:

Ok, there is probably a 60% chance I will be attending the meet in Jersey City on April 4th. My wife is still a little hesitant but most likely we won't have anything to do that day so we might make the trip. I told her that we are going to have filipino food with a bunch of pinoy's... how can you deny that? ;) If it rains or the weather temperature drops dramatically, we most likely aren't going to go. I'm going to ask my co-worker who also drives an X5 to join us. I don't know though if he has a log-in name for X5World... i'll have to see.

Question... is anyone going to bring their karaoke?? I know most of you pinoy's have the microphone with the built in chip that can plug into any tv. Don't deny it! :rofl:

It's not called karaoke anymore,,, it's magic mic.. :D

Who knows, Fiesta Grill might even have it already set... :bustingup
