It rained (obviously) but someone brought a 300SL, which is probably worth more than every house on my street combined. Got some neat photos for the brief moment when the sun came out.
SEW FAUNSEHHHHHHHHH.
LOOK AT HOW FAWNSEH MY LUGGAHHHGE IS.
I think the new Smarts look great. Certainly better than the old ones.
I completely blanked thought this was a shitty Corvette body kit on some smaller car until I saw the badge and remembered that Opel exists.
ALLROAD!
All the childhood memories. Although ours was green. And less nice.
The only pretty 911.
Possibly the greatest vent of all time.
Possibly the FAWNSEHest wipers of all time.
What’s C&C without some ricers?
We need to bring back these wipers.
More rice.
Those hips.
911 horsepower, 2.7-wheel-drive!
The only pipe classier than James May’s.
This man has a sense of humor. and probably pissed off some people waiting for a charging space.
I leave you with possibly my favorite photo of the day, though in hindsight it may benefit from a less severe vignette.
You have no idea how long it took to upload these. Please pray for my Internet bill.

I genuinely forgot to add this to the post but now it looks all cool like I did it on purpose so I’m gonna stick with that story.

F1s are cool but this is on another level.

Which C&C location is this? The only one I ever go to is the World of Speed one. Haven’t been in over a year, though. Something tells me my beige Suburban would be a less than thrilling sight.

That dash on the 300 is one of the best looking parts of any car ever

Yep, World of Speed. Didn’t go into the museum, though. Race cars are much less interesting than normal cars.

I never have been into the museum except to sit at the tables/buy coffee to be warm and dry for a moment. Why I moved to this cold, damp place is a mystery... (not really, wife talked me into it)

There’s a good chance I’ll be moving there in the fall, but I’m from Ireland so I’m good with the dampness. The cold is nothing next to Montana most winters so I’m pretty used to it.

That’s how I convince myself to stay. “At least the winters aren’t as miserable as where I grew up in Minnesota” I tell myself. Too bad I had nearly 10 years of Florida prior to moving here. I miss vitamin D.

You should have attended the Kirkland Concours in 2009 (I think). Something like 6 of them were there, along with other impressive cars - a couple of 540Ks and other supercharged prewar cars, Tucker, Duesie, F40, etc. That was probably the best year for the show Sadly, I think the show has been discontinued due to funding issues.

I love the plug in VW, I need to do this with my fintail - eco-weenies would trigger into the fetal position.
300SL is the star of any show, kudos to the owner for taking it out in the rain. And be glad you don’t have Seattle housing prices - yet.

Just a belated thank you for this post. I had some time to kill in Portland today so I went down to World of Speed. The museum is pretty neat but the volunteers are seriously the best. Nicest folks ever.
