That Alfa just came out of nowhere! Did it stop or just drive through?

It was there for a little. Forgot to stop and get more pictures before it left.

This is my favorite out of all the cars there, hands down

There's something about the way that cars look when photographed in the "gloom" of the Pacific Northwest. I don't know if it's the contrast, or the even lighting or what, but I love it. Awesome pics.

The worst part is that my job entails driving past the Cars and Coffee meet several times during the day and I get off work exactly as it's ending.

nice, but did they have a McLaren P1? :-)

Way to be *that* asshole. Why don't you post more Gold Rush photos in this thread to show us just how awesome you are.

Hey, I was there today! When the P1 left it filled the area with such an awesome sound.

That 80s Lancer! Loved that more than the other cars.

Pardon my ignorance, but is this Portland Oregon or Maine? If it's Oregon, I'll be sure to catch the next one. I just moved to Portland OR yesterday from Detroit to do some work for Daimler Truck's design studio.

Diffused sunlight does wonders for pictures. I'll take it over the harsh, blown-out highlights and hard shadows of direct sunlight any day.

It could be worse, you could be the asshole who puts crap all over a car that doesn't need it.

Cascade Pkwy? I've been driving around all day getting the lay of the land around here and I went right by there. I'll stop in next week.

Ahhh...much closer to me.

Any reason the C & C site fails to mention that one? I only went to Cascade today because I dropped someone at the airport this morning. I had no idea there was an alternate location so close, thanks.

dont knock it...we don't have fires floods, hail, tornados...When it rains it's only for a couple hours usually.

I'd happily trade all those in spades for a regular dose of vitamin D.

I love your chamber o' commerce weather forecast, tho.

I don't think 'awesome' means what you think it means Mr. Mayor.

it's been sunny and mid 70 degrees for days on end! You stuck in a basement somewhere? Go outside man! It's beautiful here this time of year.

The Tigard C&C seems to get less internet publicity. The only "Official" page they have is a Facebook group .

Yup. Every Saturday. All year too. There are always great cars no matter the weather.

I've been for a ride in the "4DAFUN" M3. It was certainly fun. Very.

an alfa Giulietta

That's a Giulietta Sprint Speciale, a lot rarer than a normal Giulietta (4-door saloon), Giulietta Sprint (coupé) or Giulietta Spider (convertible). Rarer still is the Giulietta Sprint Zagato.

Less? The only time I've heard it discussed is here :)

Maybe it's time to start tagging threads to help others know. Like 'C & C PDX' versus 'C & C Tigard', or North vs, South, etc., seeing as only one actually takes place in the city of Portland, thanks.

I was there too, really good turnout on Saturday. You got my friends and I in a couple shots and our cars!

Not sure if next week will hold up due to the forecast. But with summer here, this event is a must for Oregonians.

I don't think that's even a real P1 to be honest. If it were a real p1 there's no way the owner could afford to put those decals on it.

As a transplanted Californian, I have to agree with pico - the weather has been fantastic.

Funny, I'll actually be down in LA next week. I'll be sure to stop by Irvine C&C. Any other events going on that week other than the Rodeo Concours and Supercar Sunday?

They'we picking up momentum, so grab one while the prices are decdecent. I wouldn't care if it said Chrysler or Mitsu.

Yeah man. I'm in the process of saving for an exocet build, but in the short term I want to build a cockpit for gran turismo.

Sounds like you guys need to consolidate these locations the way Atlanta does and get the types of turnout we do.

I had the same problem. Strange that flickr doesn't provide some sort of notice that it is a gallery. Unless you hover your mouse over it, it just looks like a regular picture.

Um, we have had one of the best years of weather I can ever remember. If you think this sucks, go back to California where you came from... Ill take my clear skies and 70-80s anytime.

>Um, we have had one of the best years of weather I can ever remember

A typical PNW lack of vitamin D is responsible for your short memory...don't worry, tho - moving away will bring it all back.

I would have to agree with you about the Viper. I loved that car when I was in high school.

They don't make cars like that anymore. JeremySaysYES CAR DEALER IN PORTLAND
