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

m topls · 05-12-2009, 08:57 PM

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 am still a little disappointed that Classic would compete so directly with our meet. There is no need for them to support our site if they sponsor this one.

You usually don't show up untill 11AM anyway, - theirs starts at 8AM and is only once a month! So those who really want can do both.

Come on now, this town is big for both to have meets.
Their's is only once a month, different time and it is for a good cause.

If you guy's collected for a charity, I could see some conflict, but you don't, so where's the harm???

imaj · 05-18-2009, 06:14 PM

Why are you going at 9:00am...I read on this site that the start time is 10:00 to 12:00...No?
