Today had to be the biggest turnout to C&C I've ever been to. The entire parking lot was full of cars. Some highlights included a Corvette car club, custom Ford show car, 200,000+ miles Chevy truck in perfect condition, Ferrari F12, and some sort of home made racecar. Enjoy this huge gallery! I may or may not post a video later once I finish editing it.

What is the color and wheels on the blue M3?

I was told Marin county, not SF ,was getting a C&C. I may have to show up next time I am around there. It seems odd that San Francisco doesn't have one, lots of strange and wonderful cars there due to being one of three sales locations (NY,LA,SF) for some models and brands. But Marin is money so there you go. I saw a DS Safari Estate and a very old Rover sedan last time I was there. My son in law may pick up a 71' 240Z today so maybe we can bring that.

Marin, Tiburon. Both of them are rich as fuck.

Hot damn! I need to see more of that B6 with the primed and rolled fenders.

Ooh! I could bring the 55 Super up to Marin if that was going on! Do you know when the first one is?

I think they have already done it, it says its in Novato, more northern Marin I guess.

Thanks for the share Michael!

Not sure of the wheels, and I believe it is Interlagos blue.

CAcoalminer > twinturbobmw

Cool. Thanks. Great pictures by the way. What was your favorite car at the show?

twinturbobmw > CAcoalminer

Tough choice. The custom race car was pretty cool, I also loved the blue M3, and the 50th Edition 991 was great too. I think it would be one of those.

That E92 with the Challenge lip is nice. That almost looks like Mystic Blue from the E46 M3, but it's probably just Interlagos

awesome collection. does the blue vette license plate say "a-hole"?

twinturbobmw > Driving_Impaired
04/13/2014 at 12:45

Possibly. I was looking at it earlier and trying to figure out what it meant.

Driving_Impaired > twinturbobmw

when you look at it really quick that's what i picked up. pretty clever if so haha

I'm always astounded at the number of great cars that come out of the woodwork here in Portland. I'll have to make it out to C & C some Saturday soon I guess. Thanks for the photos!

TGRIP > twinturbobmw

There was a C&C in my hometown? And I'm stuck in Corvallis while it's happening? Finally, proof that god doesn't exist!

twinturbobmw > TGRIP
04/13/2014 at 13:26

There are actually two. This one in Tigard and one at Cascade Station. This one is more European car, whereas the Cascade one is imports and muscle.

Hope to see you out here sometime! Here's some info on where and when.

What part of STUCK SEVERAL MILES SOUTH IN CORVALLIS didn't you understand?

You really like Audis, don't you?

The Ferrari 550 was my favorite car as a kid and I'm pleased to say the F12 carries that same desire 15 years later.

I like the flat black roof but the black hood ruins that 458. Tacky as shit.

Nice pics. Too many "artsy" zooms though. Nobody cares to look at those.

MotoArigato > TGRIP

That's what the car in your driveway is for, or hitch a ride with a car buddy, hopefully you have friends that like cool cars too.

MotoArigato > jeep248
04/13/2014 at 16:26

I actually like detail shots, I know what all of these cars look like so one establishing shot then details really keep things interesting. It's also "photo 101" when it comes to shooting cars for a gallery. Of course it;s all personal preference but I wanted to clarify that "nobody" isn't accurate.

MotoArigato > twinturbobmw
04/13/2014 at 16:28

I still need to make it out to one of these, I have no interest in the Cascade Station event. If I drive my '62 Benz out but don't want to show it, what's the public parking situation?

twinturbobmw > MotoArigato
04/13/2014 at 16:49

If you don't want to show it you can park at the far end of the lot. Nothing preventing you from parking anywhere. But if you're driving a 62 Merc, why not park with the others?

MotoArigato > twinturbobmw
04/13/2014 at 18:37

Primarily because it's a daily driver and not a show car, seems all the cars I see posted at the C&C are restored or close to perfect originals. I have some splits in the seats and paint wearing on one door and fender. Again, I've not had the chance to attend so maybe there are other cars like this, but I'm kinda doubting it. Thanks for your guidance!

Nick > twinturbobmw

Probably didn't even know there was a McLaren in Portland. lol

twinturbobmw > MotoArigato
04/13/2014 at 18:44

Trust me, there are a huge variety of cars there, whether in perfect condition or beat up. The people there will embrace anything, especially something with character like an old car.

twinturbobmw > Nick

My friend says there are two or three. There are actually quite a few exotics in Oregon (Aventador, 3 Carrera GTs, Phantoms) but a lot of them don't come out that often.

Nick > twinturbobmw
04/13/2014 at 18:52

Well, there's plenty of $$ in that area so it isn't a shock. But the with the weather I am always surprised to see an exotic. I live in a very affluent town in Idaho and while there are a few exotics here, you're more likely to see a $150k Porsche Cayenne or Audi Q7 before you'll see a supercar.

Portland…..I was expecting all Subaru and Prius. ;)

I always forget about C&C over there in Tigard. Wonder if my brother still goes out there. He drove Matrix Motorsport's 911 once. Benefits of being their accountant and customer, I guess.

Jon > twinturbobmw

There's a Tesla running around with the license plate "LINUX." Strangely, it doesn't belong to Linux Torvalds (that I know of — he apparently drives a yellow Merc SLK with the license plate "DAD OF3", according to the Googles).

Jon > Picarso
04/14/2014 at 09:42

That group was protesting on the other side of the parking lot, no doubt.

twinturbobmw > Jon
04/14/2014 at 10:00

Is it a yellow 997? If so, I haven't seen it in a while.

You should see the results from the C&C in Houston on April 5th...local Ferrari dealer brought a Schumacher F1 car, 458GT, 288GTO, F40, F50, Enzo...there was also a Veyron, Saleen S7 and about 1300 others.

Kinja'd!!!

I believe that is LeMans Blue - Interlagos would have some pearl in it that would cause it to look purple in certain lights. Great pics and awesome turnout

Omarr Thomas > twinturbobmw

what kind of lense was used for that ferrari picture?

Jon > twinturbobmw
04/14/2014 at 18:40

I don't recall if it's yellow (never did get to see it myself), but I do know it's actually a 996 wearing 997 bodywork.

Sony A58 with DT 18-55 mm F3.5-5.6.

You should've! At least the turnouts will be getting better as we get closer to summer.
