    Like other big recessions in the past, dealers stop taking cars because they don't want the instant liability rather than an asset and inventories eventually dry up. They make ends meet by focusing on the used market where they can buy at depreciated values and sustain some business and hope the service department remains busy. I wouldn't want to be a car dealer of any type right now. I heard this morning that GM is off by 50%!

    Looks like the Portland crew will need to get up there some morning to make the event much more fun! LOL

    Maybe we could have a organized drive after C&C in Redmond one of these times to get the Portland crew up there?

    It may be fun to converge on a central point somewhere.

    That is a great idea and maybe we can do the same by going down to portland. Speed is such a funny guy...............LOL

    There is a nice Italian restaurant here in lake Stevens called Luca's and he would love to host a small Italian car show and lunch if any one is interested.

    According to Lambo Bellevue guys, this weekend is cancelled...

    "This is due to the pending rain for this weekend and cancellation of the RTC Cars and Coffee event preceding the BBQ."

    This was sent in regards to their BBQ event that was supposed to happen this weekend.

    I am up for it and sure I could rally a few P-town guys. I am sure they will want better weather but in a few weeks maybe!

    We're calling off E@RTC for this Saturday due to anticipated bad weather. We hope it's clear next Saturday. We'll see you all then!

    In spite of the snow on the ground, this weekend is shaping up to be a nice one. Tom and I are looking forward to hosting another Exotics At Redmond Town Center in the usual spot, right next to the Desert Fire Restaurant. We'll keep you posted if it is a -go-no-go, as we get closer to the event. If it is good weather, clear and dry, we'll be there. Even the temperature is supposed to start out a little bit warmer, with the low starting off at 39 deg. That's pretty good compared to the 32 deg mornings at the other events..
    :)

    The weather is starting to swing against us for Saturday. We will call it on either Thursday evening or Friday morning. We had it right last week as it was pouring that morning.

    Yep! There are a lot of barely legal cars being developed that look like a lot of fun to drive!

    i think there is a ktm coming to the nw. the first black car looks like it took it's styling que from Delorean. I'm not a fan of that. But I raced Ktm's so I'm for sure a fan of any Katom. They make an exceptional product. Typically along ways ahead of any curve.

    legal or not for the roads i'd hate to have someone t-bone me in one of those little things.

    We're calling off E@RTC for this Saturday due to 80% chance of rain. Two weeks in a row! Ugh! Lets hope for decent weather next week!

    Hi Everyone! I just wanted to let you know that we have a very special and rare car coming to E@RTC on the 21st. People will be flying in to see this car because it goes up for auction a few days later. This will be a very big deal so please stay tuned. I'll post details later today. Can you guess what's coming?

    The Ultimate Aero, the car that set the world speed record will be coming to E@RTC on the 21st. This car will be going up for auction and bidders will be flying in to see the car. This is a very big deal.
