Default Sat. 5/30: Cars and Coffee Comes to TX!

Taken from another forum, who is in?

Originally Posted by m topls


The legendary Cars and Coffee™ event with its roots in southern California is making its Texas debut on Saturday, May 30, from 8am-12noon! Sometimes called the world’s most diverse automobile museum with locations in the US and Europe, Cars and Coffee is the premier gathering of auto enthusiasts that come together to feed their addiction to cars, caffeine and high-octane gasoline.

Starting on Saturday, May 30, Cars and Coffee will be held in the DFW area on the last Saturday of every month from 8am-12noon at Classic BMW in Plano, Texas in the northwest corner of the parking lot. Please plan to join hundreds of proud drivers from the Dallas/Fort Worth area and beyond to congregate with like-minded aficionados and novices alike to share thoughts on a common passion. All types of cars are welcome to attend and there will be something for everyone to enjoy.

It’s all free minus the hot Starbucks coffee -- donations for the coffee will be accepted on behalf of the Greater Dallas Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association.

Date: Saturday, May 30 (last Saturday of every month)
Time: 8am – 12noon
Location:
Classic BMW (northwest corner of the parking lot)
6800 Dallas Parkway
Plano, TX 75024

A little history: Cars and Coffee began simply as the congregating of auto enthusiasts in Crystal Cove, California, in 2005. The group began meeting so that members who were united through a common passion could share their cars with each other in an environment where they were comfortable enough to ask questions, learn, and experience the joys of such a variety of talents, minds, and especially, cars.

I like coffee, but don't drink it anymore. I plan to be there since this is the only weekend in May that I don't have something else going on.

Sounds like it will be a good time.

Default Did you guys read this thread from Ricekiller (this might be only for high end cars)

Have you guys seen the forum on Rickiller on this they are saying that this is only going to be for High end cars.

(http://www.ricekiller.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71885)

Do you think they will even let us 350z and 370z' in or will we just be spectators?

Exactly. Even if I park across the street somewhere I'm still going to check them out.

I'd love to meet up, but since the wife and kiddo are coming, my schedule that morning will be completely dictated by a 6 mo. old. I should hopefully be there by 8 or 8:30 though.
