I’m not sure how large the parking lots is but by the photos i would say it’s as lage as the BMWs but not sure. it did get so big that the started a Suday GTG called ” Super car Sunday ” Also the LA Cars And Coffee is every week on Sat. So I bet that helps because not every one can make it out every. weekend. I did have lunch with a friend today who said…. He spoke with a friend who is on the school board in Southlake, They talked about Cars and Coffee. His friend said that he thought he could get it aproved to use the Dragon Stadium parking lot in Southlake for the one sat a month GTG. The parking lot holds about 4,000 cars. So if Cars and Coffee would like to look at that as a possible solution please get in tough with me and I will pass on the contack info to you guys. But I sure like the BMW guys. They are very good to us.
I can see we have a over whelming number of Mustangs, Corvettes, Cameros, and ……….. But the point of Cars and Coffee is for people like us who are passionate about our car or cars have a place to show them off and enjoy seeing other cars and talk cars. As for me… there are a lot of daily drivers that I don’t give more then a glance…. But to the person who ownes that car… ” It’s the coolest car and they are proud of their car enough to show it off. ” Back in high school I didn’t have hardly any money and I drove a Vega for the longest time. Back then a Vega was not COOL but I thought it was and I took it to cars shows and GTGs. Sure most all my friends had the cool cars,… Trans Ams, corvettes, Firebirds, cameros, 240 and 260 Zs and so on, but never once did I get turned away because my car was not a higher caliber model. Sure untill I droped a Chev 350 in the Vega, no one really looked at it. But I was still proud of it and kept it clean. My point you is you can’t turn a car or driver away from a GTG because his car dosn’t meet a Standerd or cost value. This is NOT a Concourse show… Its just a Car GTG. If the million dollor car owners don’t want to have to show up at 7am then they can show up at 9 or 10am… By 10 there is always room to park. ALSO If they are really that passionate about their car or cars and enjoy showing them off, then they would be up early to get there in time for a parking spot. We all have ajusted to the earlier time we have to show up. The crowd of drivers that show up do not look look like Gang Members or Drugies… for the most part they look just like us … people who enjoy cars. When I looked on line… No other Cars and Coffee limits the type of cars that can show up to their GTGs. Los Ageles Cars and coffee that has a larg # of high end cars starts at 6am and there is no word of limiting number or type of cars that show up. And looking over their photos the have large #s of Vettes, mustangs and cameros. The Los Angels event is so popular that they even started a GTG on sudays thats called ” Super Car Sunday. ” In their photo and videos you see a LOT of the high end cars but also again you see all other makes too. In their advertiement for the show the say ” Open to all makes and models ” And It’s free to go and show your car just like Cars and Coffee. So again my piont is how do you tell the people who have the same passion I do for their car or cars that ” their car ” is not good enough or expensive enough to join the show…. YOU DONT ! When we start doing that at a ” general ” car GTGs like… Cars and Coffee or Super Car Sunday then we have lost the meaning of being ” A Car Guy “
Just my opinion
ELIOAlso i would be ok with the the Lambos, ferraris placing cones in the section they always park. To do so they will have to take turns on one of them showing up early enough to do so. I have seen this done in other sections in the parking lot. OR better yet… why don’t they call up all their friends who have those high end cars and show up really early and take over that whole section AND the first role… That would be cool! I’m sure if that happend we wouldn’t hear the Mustangs guys complaning.
