I hope everyone is having a fine Tuesday afternoon! I wanted to post up really quick to encourage anyone living in and around the Bay Area to attend Cars & Coffee in Blackhawk every first Sunday of the month @ 8am.
It was the largest turnout ever this Sunday, though I only counted one AMG (nice black C63 coupe). Cars of interest are too many to list, but there was a beautiful gullwing SL, a new Aventador, GT40, and the first Fisker Lagito CS V10.
We need more AMGs representing- my hypocrite *** drove the Ghia. Some pictures may follow...
See ya next month!

Ok, I am calling out you w203 guys- you need to represent at next months Blackhawk Cars & Coffee. It's turned into a hell of a monthly show:


I have been trying to convince my girlfriend to bring my C55 separately (since she can't drive the Ghia ), but so far no luck. I'll bring it out one of these months.

I totally would, but I have an aircooled vw show in Lakeport that weekend.

Some footage from July Cars & Coffee, not my best videos but worth a look:
See ya next month!

Seriously good times the last couple of months at Cars & Coffee Blackhawk!

I will be bringing the C55 out with the Ghia next time! We are finishing up on the project '41 Chevy Business Coupe too, so that may make an appearance too!

Couldn't convince my better half to bring the C55, but there was a great AMG turnout for December:

Hey Drew,


Awesome clip! You know when someone watches the entire 30 minutes without accelerating! And no, I'm a very, very busy with deadlines for the year-end so I wasn't just messing around. As a matter of fact, I've been hauling around Sprint Booster in trunk for the past month+.


I absolutely love the Alfa Sprint Veloce, and I like the Buick Rivera. And boy, I really want the CLK 63 BS. R33 GTR looks cool and enjoyed the very quick GTI and the loud 458!!!


It's a bit hard for me to go but boy, really enjoy them. Thanks!!!

ghiaguy

Haha! Thanks a lot for watching Bud!!
Happy Holidays to you and yours

Anyone going tomorrow ?

ghiaguy

Ill be there with the Ghia this month. Last month was insane- I'm working on my last video of the show itself right now...


Hope you can make it!

It was a great turnout this month, but the security and police really neutered the departures. I brought the Ghia since I don't get to drive it enough, but my Dad decided to bring his new Cayenne S instead of my C55.
Hopefully the babysitting will die down over the next months and business will resume as usual with people leaving. It was always a huge treat to hear the exhausts of the cars pulling away.
That black C55 was really clean, someone on here?

February Show:

March Departures:

Hope all are having a nice month!! Enjoy + be safe this St. Patty's Day!

So do the cops just do circles right there looking to bust people?

ghiaguy

Since the M4 incident, yes. The February show was on total lock-down when it came to departures, but March got a bit livelier...

insame1

Has anyone reached out to the local police and asked if they could maybe block a lane or something?

ghiaguy

I'm not sure, the cops have been especially grumpy recently and this month probably didn't help. Doubt they would be receptive- good idea though.

ghiaguy

Seriously think there were more Slingshots out there than AMGs
I shouldn't run my mouth as I came on two wheels instead of four this month:


Hope to see you guys in April!

ghiaguy

May was the largest turnout yet with almost a thousand cars! Wayne Carini even came out to film a bit of Chasing Classic Cars.
I completed the departure video and am working on editing the massive show footage; enjoy:
Hope to see you next month!!
