    There where several highlights and lowlights at this past weekend's Cars & Coffee. The Highlights included a Battery-powered LMP car built by Drayson on a Lola chassis, a pair of Ferrari Enzo's, several Black Series Benzes, a Carrera GT, a Bullit Mustang on a strange rig, a beautiful Carrera RS, the GT3 RS 4.0, Porsche 917 rep, and a Callaway C16. Oh and let's not forget about the sleeper highlight, the turbo LSx powered Jaguar XJ. We also had the controversial in the form of a matte brown Lexus SC300 and a Miata with a rusty hood. The definite low light, which I sadly don't have a picture of but would love a pic of, was the CL65 AMG which got completely sideways exiting the lot.

    But anyways here are the picks of the pics from last week. Enjoy!

    Did the cops stop the douche exiting?

    Sadly the cop was busy with someone else who exited the lot stupidly. But that person had just taken off hard. They didn't get full opposite lock like the CL65 Douche

    This is why we can't have nice things.

    Ban the douche.

    Correct. Kinda brings the wrongness of the rusty hood fad to a new level. Let's add weight to the car too!



    Ok, I'm gonna be 'that guy'. The McQueen car show sign? Really? "Ferarri's, Porsche's, Cobra's, Mustang's! See Steve McQueens Cars!" Proofreading is dead.

    Replace that hood with something else and that is actually a nice Miata.

    Well this certainly looks safe...

    It left the lot with an Enzo...I wonder if they spoke to each other about the best ways to suppress a fire.

    It's actually not too uncommon to see at Cars & Coffee.

    I've seen a Viper on French plates, an SZ on Italian plates, a Fiat Multipla on British plates, and a 599GTB on Monaco plates just to name a few...

    Looks like a modded C5 vette. Door, mirror and fuel filler location is similar.
