Default Cars and Coffee v.5.14 *Celebrity Edition*

Cars and Coffee "Celebrity Edition" was quite the show.

As I walked into the corral I spotted the Millenworks LUV. What a huge beast it is! It looks like something that was pulled straight out of a post-apocalyptic movie set. It seems to scream "America ***** YEAH!" Coincidentally, as I was checking it out a gentlemen by the name of Ken Block was also checking it out. He was quite the fan and we had a good conversation about it up until the people around noticed him and started asking for pictures and an autograph. He was very friendly and signed hats, hoodies, shoes, cars, whatever and posed for all the pictures. Block also happened to drive down to the show in his Focus RS, one of only 2 in the U.S. It was really cool to see such a rare car in person.

This weekend we were also graced with a gala of exotics. Everywhere you looked there seemed to be a Ferrari. There was even a Ferrari 330 P4 replica built on an actual Ferrari chassis. However, by far my favorite exotic was a blue Lamborghini Countach S. This car was absolutely stunning, the car couldn't have been painted a better color. It was a thing dreams are made of.

This C&C also marked the day one of my dreams was killed. The dream of one day owning a 997.2 GT3RS is no longer. I was invited to sit in one and it turned out to be an exercise in futility. My right leg became jammed between the wheel and the center console. Then to make matters worse I couldn't get out because the door didn't open far enough to get my feet out. It was quite embarrassing to struggle so much to extricate my self out of the car.

I'm glad I didn't skip this show like I was going to and I hope you guys enjoy this weekends picks of the pics:

That's MillenWork's Diesel-Electric hybrid. I saw it run 2 months ago and it's a beast. The suspension is just ridiculous. The tie rods is probably larger than most car's axles. lol. It just dwarfs everything around it.

Is C&C every week/month?

I don't know much about it, other than that I WILL go to it when my car is finished (and be the only one there to ever have brought said car )
