Cars and Coffee (Plano)

One of my favorite cars out there on Saturday actually. Very very clean looking! Glad you enjoyed the photos.

 

I was there early with the "V6" and was gone before the Violin Guy started playing...

The vendor tent thing brings a different dynamic to the - whatever C&C Dallas can be categorized as. They could add a For Sale Corral, a Swap Meet area, and an additional day to really make it a Texas sized monthly show...

great turnout, probably the biggest (cars and people) I have seen... I got there around 7:30 and got one of the last 'coned' spots...

 

I got a few snaps of your car that I plan on doing something with. I'll post a link here when it/they are finished.

 

If you got any of the white 328, I'd like to see them.

 

Cool, thanks!

Very creative work! How can I get a print?

 

It's Hwy 1 in California, near San Simeon. Not my favorite image, but since a had a few snaps of Glen's car I felt like I had to make it work!

 

I missed the May C&C, yet was caught on video riding by. At 9:05.

First time I went since January. It was a lambo-fest for sure.

Apparently the cool new thing is to just rev cars senselessly. That stupid yellow gallardo kept revving it and it was just plain annoying. Then that gave the ricers the idea to rev their fart cans.

I can't wait until one of those guys destroys their engine while ruining the meet.

A little rev on start up while driving off isn't too annoying but just sitting there flogging the throttle gets annoying.

I guess that's just the nature of these car shows. I miss the old Cars and Coffee.

Overall the place was PACKED and spectator parking was over flowing. There were many cool cars there. Too bad that was overshadowed by egotistical maniacs.

Is it crazy that I would love to try and organize a smaller C&C type thing another weekend? More *actual* enthusiast centric, less crowded, etc. I'm relatively new to Dallas and not an F-car owner but I grew up around the original Cars and Coffee events and would love something more true to the original spirit of C&C.

Anyway, there were some cool cars today for sure. Tons of Lambos - some clean, some not. I took a few pictures:

I stopped going last year. That event used to be really enjoyable.

 

Anyone know what this is. Is it a radical?

I believe it is a Rapier SL-C!

 

Glad I don't bother any more.

 

Kind of glad I slept in this morning. Fort Worth C&C may not have all of the exotics that Dallas gets, but it seems more enthusiast-centered. No revving, just the chatter of people talking about cars and engines of cars going through the lot finding a place to park.

I'm so happy that FW is every month now.

 

Thanks!

 

I went once this year right after I got my 360. Won't go again. I am a car nut, but the crowds and the overdosing of show-offs is not my cup of tea.

 

Anyone up for working to start a new, smaller regular get-together?

 

There are FCA breakfasts for both ends of the metroplex, and FW Cars and Coffee is growing (but nowhere near as big as Dallas, which is a good thing).

But, another GTG? Sign me up!

 

Me likey!
