Houston Coffee & Cars March 3rd

LOL, there is another full parking lot behind the Ferraris/Lambos that was nothing but new and old American muscle.

And yes this show has been getting bigger and bigger over the past 6 months or so. The 16M's regularly come out and more and more people are finding out about the show.

 

At least they are separated. Here there's a 15 foot gap between a 599 GTO and a stock mustang.

We have our own crowd of high end Ferrari owners. One of them has a nice collection of modern ferraris.

 

Here is my gallery from this weekend's event:

I loved seeing the GTO's and the Aperta. I hope with the weather getting warmer we will see more Californias. I think my favorite car was the 599 GTO or maybe the Studebaker I found.

I liked it better when the cars were parked randomly. When you see a line of 10 430's it makes each car less special than when you wander through the maze of cars and find them by accident. Finding a 599 GTO next to a 72 240z across from a Porsche Carrera GT is pretty cool.

 

Good point and I agree and those are some great pics, thanks for sharing.

Good to have you posting pics again, Sam!!!

It was my first C&C in the last 2 years

 

I have only been to one, since they moved it 50 miles out....LOL!

I have some 348 poster art (framed) you would like, we need to get together...I'm on TC Jester between Rainbow Lodge and the Boy Scouts.....

 

Can someone tell me what time most people start arriving? My friend plans on attending but doesn't know the time. I told him it probably really starts going around 8am.

It's been at least 2 years since my last C&C and that was at the last location.

 

8am is fine!

 

When is the next one?

 

Thanks guys.

My friend wants to find a spot. I'm just gonna roam around so if I'm late I don't really care.

 

I might actually make this one.

 

10am is def too late lol. Pretty much all were gone.

 

LOL, yea you missed it. I got there right at 8 and it was jam packed. Overheard one guy say it's the biggest turn out he had seen.

My buddy said there was a Mac F1 there, but I didn't see it.

If I make it to the next one I'm gonna try and get there around 7-7:30.

 

Indeed there was an F1.

>8^)

Dang it. Had a feeling one was there. Yes I can sense cars lol....

 

I did not feel like making the drive but crap it would have been amazing to see an F1 in person. Hopefully it will showup at another event.

 

Aaah! Missed out on the F1 - I wish I had gone!

 

What's So amazing is the center ownership seems to be on board with the show. Cops directing traffic around 930 or So as the crowd lessens. Very cool.
