WHAT IS THE SPRING FESTIVAL of LX's? 

The Spring Festival of LX's has its roots in Southern California as an enthusiast gathering for the hottest car platform to hit the American car market in years.  While our first meet in 2004 consisted of only 4 vehicles, our next few meets in 2005 quickly grew to approach 100 vehicles.  Starting in 2006, we kicked it up a notch and surpassed 300 vehicles with participants from all over the US and Canada.  This event has grown every year since and we now expect over 700 vehicles for the 2010 Spring Festival of LX's.  This event, by far, is the largest gathering of LX/LC owners anywhere.

As a community and enthusiast event, we have the tremendous support of Chrysler/Dodge and have had many Executives from both the local Irvine office as well as Auburn Hills.
