I braved the below freezing temperatures this morning to take the Alfa to a the local Cars & Coffee. My first time going could not have been better, even though I just about froze my feet off. There were so many cool rides there and everyone was very nice, plus there were two classic F1 cars that got started up to everyone's enjoyment. Niki Lauda's Ferrari 312T and a McLaren. I won't list everything I saw because that could get boring but there was a great mix of everything from Ferraris to Porsches to Lamborghinis and Alfas. Two C7 'Vettes, a ZL1 Camaro, some GT40 replicas, Cobras and Focus STs also made an appearance. Enjoy the pics and video!

Video of the Ferrari and McLaren:

Were you in the white Alfa Spyder!?

Shame I didn't see you. I made it for the 10am startup and did some walking around beforehand. The Countach and the Ferrari 612, left as I was parking so I didn't get pics of them (damnit!). I'll do my photo dump on Monday.

Nice shots! Did you see the '14 Camaro SS with Manufacturers plates?

Edit: HOLY CRAP! You had to have been about 4 people to my left during the start up!

You were right behind me on 38th just before you got gas at the Chevron. You going to the Toy Run tomorrow?

Were you in the Mail Jeep, the Grand cherokee or one of those Porsches? Or was that you in the red Celica? And I have to work tomorrow at 12 so unfortunately I won't be able to make it. Also I'm trying not to use 5th right now so the freeway would be a bit...interesting.

I was in Grimace (the Celica). That sucks about tomorrow. Maybe we can get a Jalop get together going soon. Maybe a Seahawks viewing party type thing at BWWs or something.

A few years ago they let us get a lot closer to the McLaren on fireup.

Aw gee, thanks! I try to do the best I can with the ol' iPhone. I would have liked to get some more detail shots but it was way too cold to take the time.
