Boulder/Denver Coffee and Cars tomorrow

well todays show was good. people said not as busy as last months, but many great cars. after many people had left, a 2012 Mclaren Mp4-12C showed up. I was just moments away from getting a ride in one of my favorite cars ever. The owner took off with some other kid who was supposed to get his high school senior pictures with the car. Kinda bummed, but there are other opportunities in the future.

When did the mp4 get there? I was there from 9-10ish maybe and didnt see it.

Also, its too bad so many nice cars end up getting stuck parked on the street thanks to people parking Chevy Cruzes and the like in the lot. Wonder if the gathering is too big for its location...

 

mp4 got there around 10:15, yep i think the location needs to change. that parking lot sucks

 

+1. Lot is too small; and, at the risk of sounding elitist, is attracting too many vehicles that aren't really in the spirit of what most of us expect...time for a change.

 

Thanks for the input guys, I am looking into bigger lot options and if something that makes sense all the way around becomes a reality, I will post an update.

No comment on expectations of what shows up, that I have zero control. I enjoy all makes and models...

I don't check in here often at all, if somebody needs me my email is [email protected]

 

Looking dry and sunny for Saturday, time to awake the toys from winter nap!!!

 

Great turnout today as usual, nice to see everyone. Lots of variety again.

 

Great to see you today, my friend.

Great turnout and nice to see all of the crew!

 

Was a great time -- wish it was a tad warmer thought. Really nice cars expecially for this early in the year.

 

Missed yesterday since my car is still at the bodyshop, next month for sure

 

That F12 is stunning. Sherpa was that your 550? I couldn't help but stare at that one too.

 

It's not that cold if you have a GTB.

Yes, that was mine. Thanks.

 

You funny guy! Actually the GTS is nice and warm with the top off and heater blowing! Ahh...the best of both worlds.

 

Another great turnout yesterday...

Size is limited by the venue... I'm guessing 100+ cars maybe?

Drove up in my 911 targa...

Incredible variety

 

I heard the guy with the F12 is selling it to get a grey 458 Speciale.

 

The white one?

 

Silver/black 78SC. Fuchs.

Which car did you drive?

 

My dd: 2001 BMW 325xi wagon. I went to the velodrome for 3 hours after C&C so that was the car of choice but it's always nice to leave the "good" cars at home: I don't have to stand by my car to make sure people don't lean against it and scratch it (it's happened at Lafayette) and no one knows what cars I have so I get more unfiltered conversation from people. They think I'm just some poor dreamer in cargo shorts and a t shirt that could never possibly hope to scrape together enough rupees to buy something as special as their Cobra kit car, Aston Martin Vantage, Challenge Stradale, etc. so I get a lot of "interesting" conversation. It's all part of the fun, I suppose.

 

Did you wear a Ferrari shirt though?

 

I don't think I own a Ferrari shirt.

 

Finally! I'm getting my 1998 456 GT down the mountain to this event...took me all summer to make it happen (life is too busy) hoping to meet some F-chatters there and see some sweet rides

 

Which mountain? Nice to know there are other loonies up in the foothills with a Ferrari besides me.

 

Idaho Springs area what about you?

 

Hey, I live in Evergreen and I'm always looking for mountain people to hook up with.

Not sure if I'll make the trip to the Boulder C&C though. Highway 36 is a mess and driving up 93 can be a bit scary in a small, low 328. Maybe I should just suck it up and make the trip before the snow falls.

You could always go the back " interesting "way
6 to central city peak to peak to Nederland down bolder canyon I'll be a Vic's 30th street at 8
