Houston Cars and Coffee: Dec 4



0% chance of rain, 56-76*F. Should be beautiful.

Anyone else going to be out there? Seems that there is a huge clump of Houston area posters in this subforum.

I was told they'd be announcing the new venue in the Galleria sometime tonight, and their facebook page echoes that sentiment.

John also stated that he'd be bringing out his new 1200hp Elise as shown above.

The facebook group/john hennessey say that it'll be in the container store/starbucks parking lot, which is a terrible idea.


I'll try and seek you guys out, but a friend with a P-car is caravaning up from CL and a bunch of buddies will be coming with me from the Med Center, so who knows what the lot will look like when I get there.

Saw 2 other E55's out there, a white one with what looked like 19" E63 reps drove through, and a black one parked with the hood popped [running 1 drag radial out back might mess with the diff, careful!] HadiLaw, perhaps?

I ended up parking over on the Dave and Busters side because I arrived at 8:20...walked out to my car at 7:30 to drive there, but someone at a light on the way there told me that my passenger front tire was flat...It's holding air now but some of the wheel finish chipped off, presumably from contacting the ground on the way.

Nothing like watching a guy with too much $$$ and too little driving skill make an *** of himself in front a group of enthusiasts.

That's a big bag of WIN every time.
