Default Saturday Morning Cars and Coffee

Found some sweet rides this morning on my search for nostalgic as well as SC or current rare cars as I sip on my triple venti soy mocha latte with extra caramel drizzle for $9.00 from my favorite coffee shop.

First up...flashback to the ole' Mitsubishi 3000GT
Nice white SC with chromes...my favorite chrome OE rim BTW
SC400 turning in front of me...my EXACT car!
How about a Blue NSX-T from the most recent body restyle...I believe a 2000 or so? Nice SL next to it.
80's SL 450...looks like a 86+, It had the halogen front lights and the third brake light

Default more pics...

Beautiful 2005 Silver SC with some TRD-looking chromes. I spoke to the owner and he was actually on his way to look at the G37 convertible and cited his reasons for getting rid of was because of the low-tech and no updates on the SC and it was a little slow. 55 year old guy. He had never seen or heard of my PB before and was amazed at it.

Next up, check out the silver Acura Integra (I believe) up on the side of the bridge. Bad wreck on the Tollway in Dallas...like the Autobahn. People drive CRAZY on it...and obviously this guy a little too crazy. Wow!

Next up: A rare sighting...not just one red SC but TWO parked next to each other??? No way!!!

Another SC at the mall...Mercury Metallic very classy

Last, I rather rare Mustang Bullitt. Has GT look at first glance, wheels, etc but appears to be in a rarer form...no spoiler or fog lights. Had cloth interior and REALLY growled. I've only seen a few of these. Very cool.

Do you want to go to Cars and Coffee one month in Plano? It'll be cool if we can get the whole collection of PB or at least some PB there.

Yeah!!! Let's do it for sure!!!

It's SC season right now! Granny just took the battery butler off and the car cover and moved the Halloween decorations off the hood so she can drive it now! LOL

I've seen a TON of SC's recently in DFW...must be the great drop in temperature lately.

Yup, I've had the top down since Thursday night here in Dallas. It was in the high 60s this morning and in the low 70s tonight when I was out.

scdroptop has an 05 PB and I have an 09 PB, we still need:

04 PB
06 PB
07 PB
08 PB

Come on lurkers

I got a PM from a fellow 05 PB'er here in Dallas but she is not very active on posting, but appears to watch the forum fairly regularly. It would be great to hear from other Pebble Beach folks. TooCool has the 07 and is very active on here, you can check the box for the 07.

There is a 04 CL Pebble Beach member here too that is in Dallas I believe. To my knowledge there is NO 06 (rootbeer) and 08 PB members in Dallas.

Why not do a picture thread of PB & NM cars?

I did a while ago. I need to dig for it. We can update with some newer pics. I like it's fascinating the different changes in each model...especially the NM/PB cars which have some truly unique features. I will dig it up. Thanks for the suggestion Harold!
