Default Southeast Michigan Cars and Coffee

I know I just joined this forum but wanted to let you know that a couple BMW guys decided to see about starting a new Cars and Coffee in Detroit in Troy. We created a facebook page and it has now taken off with almost 200 members before our first event. I think having a couple 350/370Zs at this event would be great. We have put the invite out to many other groups so this will not be a BMW only event by any means. Would love to see some of you guys out there. First event is in 2 weeks. Spread the word and let others know all are welcome as long as everyone is nice and doesn't do anything to make us lose this spot.

Final Details for Southeast Michigan Cars and Coffee:

Location: 15 mile and Coolidge in Troy @ the Caribou Coffee in this huge parking lot ---> http://www.cariboucoffee.com/asp/loc...p&recordId=518
Time: 8AM-11ish
When: First Saturday of every month starting in April
Who: Any and everyone

Here is the facebook group (probably the best way to keep in touch with everyone on different forums) ---> http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=333991937331

Hope to see you there. Spread the word.

Dave

Looking forward to meeting some of guys this coming weekend. Don't worry if you can't make the first event either even though it looks like great weather. I am sure if the April one is good, the May will be even better, and the June will be...etc.

We had a great amount of cars show up...at least 100. We may have to look at a new location also but I will post updates when available.

Lastly, not sure if the silver 350Z that was there is on here, but please, no shenanigans. We already need to talk to the owners of the lot and driving dangerously is going to make it harder to keep this spot not to mention that it is dangerous because this is a parking lot. Everyone is welcome to show up, but if people drive dangerously or stupid, we will ask you to leave and not come back.

Nice to hear there was a big turnout.. Bad to hear about the 'shenanigans', even worse that is was a Z. Was that the only incident?

Bummer that one doofus can make the rest of us look bad too. Not that my absent opinion matters, but, I say ban him.

No problem guys...I know that it sucks that it had to be a 350Z guy but there are also plenty of BMW ****** also

Just want to let the person know if he is on here, his actions weren't appreciated or impressive to anyone. For everyone else, hope you can come to the next meet.

Looks like 40% chance of showers for Saturday. This may be a problem for both events.
