    Hey guys,

    It's time for our monthly gathering of car enthusiasts here in the twin cities.
    Last month we had a phenomenal turn out with about 90 cars from many different parts of the world.

    Location:
    Caribou Coffee/Einstein Brothers Bagels parking lot off of Shady Oak Rd and Hwy 62 in Minnetonka.
    We'll meet from 9am to 11am.

    This Saturday APS Autoworks in Shakopee is having a dyno day at their location starting at 12:00N, a few of us are planning on leaving the C&C around 11:30 and heading out that way. For a map, click on the link below.

    Stay tuned to all of the Cars & Coffee threads as I am planning a special event after each one.

    Please mark your calendars with the following dates:

    September 6th
    October 4th
    November 1st?

    Please forward this on to all of your sports/exotic car friends and encourage them to come on out. We’ll have some photographers out there and we’ll post up some shots on the different forums.
    Hope to see you all there.
    Thanks,
    Luis

    Please note:
    In order to have better control of parking and who parks where, I have spoken with the management of Jimmy's (Right across the street from Caribou) and they have been kind enough to let us use their lot from now on for all of our events. So now, instead of turning right into the Caribou lot, you will turn left into the Jimmy's lot. Jimmy's opens at 11am and will offer 25% off of lunch to any of us there for the event!
    Same rules apply, no racing, no burnouts or you are out.
    We will be parking cars by Country of Origin (Ie: Germany in one section, Italy in another, US etc etc etc) and then perhaps by Marque (In a perfect world, this is how I want all of our events to be from now on) so if you see a Porsche and you are driving one, park by it.
    We will have people there directing parking and letting folks know where they should park.
    These changes will make the future events better for parking, pictures and easier for the regular patrons of Caribou and people who are there to watch but not displaying their cars in the C&C lot.
    See you guys in the morning!!
    Luis

    Great shots!



    Thanks to all of you that came out. We easily had over 200 cars there. Next time we will not be able to use either of the Caribou lots unfortunately.

    From now on we will either use Jimmy's and the lot behind it or we will move the event to a different location which would be better as well. I'll keep you guys posted as that progresses. Post up more pics and stay tuned for Matt's video as he outdoes himself every time.

    Thanks!

    Luis
