Minneapolis MN Cars & Coffee this Saturday 8/2/08

Hey guys,

It's time for our monthly gathering of car enthusiasts here in the twin cities.
Last month we had a phenomenal turn out with about 90 cars from many different parts of the world.

Location:
Caribou Coffee/Einstein Brothers Bagels parking lot off of Shady Oak Rd and Hwy 62 in Minnetonka.
We'll meet from 9am to 11am.
Map to Location:

This Saturday APS Autoworks in Shakopee is having a dyno day at their location starting at 12:00N, a few of us are planning on leaving the C&C around 11:30 and heading out that way. For a map, click on the link below.
APSAutoworks – Paint/body & Performance for Mustang & Others
Stay tuned to all of the Cars & Coffee threads as I am planning a special event after each one.

Please mark your calendars with the following dates:

September 6th
October 4th
November 1st?

HD Videos from the last 4 months C&C's (Thanks Matt Desmond!):

Please forward this on to all of your sports/exotic car friends and encourage them to come on out. We’ll have some photographers out there and we’ll post up some shots on the different forums.
Hope to see you all there.
Thanks,

Please note:
In order to have better control of parking and who parks where, I have spoken with the management of Jimmy's (Right across the street from Caribou) and they have been kind enough to let us use their lot from now on for all of our events. So now, instead of turning right into the Caribou lot, you will turn left into the Jimmy's lot. Jimmy's opens at 11am and will offer 25% off of lunch to any of us there for the event!
Same rules apply, no racing, no burnouts or you are out.
We will be parking cars by Country of Origin (Ie: Germany in one section, Italy in another, US etc etc etc) and then perhaps by Marque (In a perfect world, this is how I want all of our events to be from now on) so if you see a Porsche and you are driving one, park by it.
We will have people there directing parking and letting folks know where they should park.
These changes will make the future events better for parking, pictures and easier for the regular patrons of Caribou and people who are there to watch but not displaying their cars in the C&C lot.
See you guys in the morning!!
Luis

Thank you to all that came out. We had a perfect day with another over 200 car turnout. We did not plan for such a good turn out and ran out of coffee early. We are working on some food vendors and will make sure there is enough coffee for everybody next month.
Matt's video will be sick as always. As some of you know, he has put together a MN C&C Flikr group for all of you to upload your pics:
Flickr: Cars & Coffee - Minneapolis, MN
The location could not have been better. We were able to line up cars by brand (We almost got it) which will make for great pics and videos.
Thanks to Bruno from the MN AutoMotorplex for allowing us to have our event at his fantastic facilty.
Over all a perfect day and perfect event. Thanks again for all of you that came out and represented for the great MN enthusiast community.

Here are a few of my pics:
2000 lbs 550 hp 911 Turbo race car:
