I know I posted a while ago about a summer drive in Denver, but it never came to fruition. I have heard Coffee and Cars Denver does some drives and I have been out to The Great Indoors a few weekends but never been able to do a drive, let alone a Mercedes-Benz drive. Being 17 and just starting mods on my car, I don't get a lot of credit with some of the big-name car guys here in Colorado yet but hope to get in with them soon... (I was told at one gathering, very nice car but looks way to stock - come back when you've done more, kid). In fact the only person I have any respect from is Ricky Weston owner of Weston Auto Gallery, great guy. But enough of my story lol...
Any good drives in Denver or anyone want to plan one?

Yeah there are plenty W211 owners that go to Cars and Coffee, and other MB owners that are on the forums. I've tried asking you if you were local several times and you ignored me.
Yeah... I'm an ahole... ignoring folks left and right. JK... sorry I missed the reach out. I live east of Castle Rock... five miles from pavement, on a little forty acre spread.
So all those 8s in that list of "Cars and Coffee" regulars looks a bit intimidating to my little 3.5L six... can I come out an play too? Is C&C a sub group or something of MBCA?
Lol you're good man! You are a pretty short drive then, it's held every Saturday at the Sears Outlet parking lot in Lone Tree, right off of 470. Usually starts around 9:30am and ends by 11:30am, but don't worry man as long as you don't drive a riced out tuner car, pretty much everyone is welcome with ALLLL different types of cars.
I won't be out there this Saturday but I will pretty much the rest of the summer. Cars & Coffee is actually a national (well now international) meet that occurs in various cities across the US. No central management, no registration, no fee, no designated or restricted spots, just show up, park your car, and meet some new people that have the same interest you do. The main Cars & Coffee meet is up in Lafayette the first Saturday of every month, but we have a core group of guys that have been meeting in our area for years each Saturday morning. It's most of the Colorado car scene honestly, and you get to know some really interesting people. Come on by! Chances are at least one MBWorld guy will be there, but not usually not everyone on that list.
However, we're thinking of doing an MBWorld lunch with local members after Cars & Coffee one weekend so I'll be in touch.
We have been doing it at Sears Outlet every Saturday for as many years as I have been going, however this is the second weekend we've hosted it at Vehicle Vault which is our new location thanks to the Dilley family (owners of Vehicle Vault). Erin and Daniel are great people and it's an awesome location in Parker off Lincoln. Come check it out next weekend!
I'll be going this Saturday at around 9:30, went on an awesome lunch and rally with some longtime friends there this last weekend after the meet! And yes that is an SLR McLaren 722s
