Durham Cars & Coffee, first Saturday of each month, next one is 02/05/2022. I usually get there early. I am usually the ONLY IS-F there, would be nice to see other IS-F's.

Address: 5425 Page Rd, Durham, NC 27703

Time: 8 AM to 11 AM (arrive earlier if you want a decent parking spot)

* Please no burnouts or drag racing when you arrive/leave, Durham PD is on duty. The show has grown substantially in the last year and we would like to keep it going. I know its very tempting to do the "Let's go full throttle when we leave and impress all the teenagers standing on the sidewalk" but I've personally seen various car shows across the country get shutdown because of that.

Cheers.

Cool, where in NorCal? I left San Ramon in 2015. Shipped my ISF to RTP. Used to go the Blackhawk Coffee & Cars.

Mendocino county. If you like wine I'm sure you visited here!

If anyone needs a car driven out from CA to the area around NC I'm sure I can oblige!

Recently moved to Raleigh from Houston. 2013 IS-F Matador / Alpine. Thinking about checking this out in March here in a couple weeks. Is there a Lexus presence?

Hey HtownISF13 - Welcome to Raleigh (been here 31+ years now). I drove my new Lexus LC 500 convertible to the Durham Car & Coffee event last Summer (it was Japanese car day). and came away a bit disappointed. A few observations: 1) If you are going and expect to park anywhere close to the main event, you need to arrive by 7 AM or so; 2) although there were a lot of other great cars there to see, NO ONE there even gave my car a second look; 3) Most of the Japanese cars that were there that day were souped up Toyotas, Hondas, (plus way too many street racers/muscle cars driven by seemingly young kids); and 4) being a 60-something retired guy, my wife and I were the oldest ones in attendance by a generation or so. Bottom line - worth going to but arrive early and expect to see every type of car imaginable, regardless of what the "focus" is for that particular month. Enjoy!

I just moved to the Wake Forest area from San Diego. Much nicer roads here! If there is a Lexus-related get together anywhere around here, that would be fun.

Welcome to NC! We moved to Cary 31+ years ago (after IL, CA, IA, NY, NJ, GA) and love it here. The Durham Lexus dealer occasionally hosts 'cars+coffee-like' events at their dealership. You may want to reach out to them directly (Chad Chapman) so you'll been included in the invite. The last one they did (9/16/23) included about 8-10 LC 500's (mine included)...the most I've ever seen in one location at one time. It was great to see all of the other Lexus owners. Take care!.

That's funny, I moved to Wake Forest from Florida and hate our roads but that's only because Florida's are glass smooth. At least they have curves out here though! I have a dark blue GS430. Feel free to give me a honk if you see me driving around.
