I finally had an opening in my schedule to come out for Coffee and Cars this month! There was also an opportunity for me to take a monster of a car – a 2007 Mercedes SL65 AMG to the show as well, so when the 5:30am alarm sounded, I was more than ready to get going.
I met with some fellow C&C’ers early that morning for a cruise to Coffee and Cars. Once we got on the road, we were joined by a Ferrari F430 as well as the brand new McLaren MP4-12C Spyder. A Hyabusa chase motorcycle filmed a little but of the antics as we mad our way out.

Once I arrived, I parked next to a gorgeous 1965 Volvo 1800S. Beautiful car, and definitely one that you don’t see every day!
The Italians, lined up all in a neat row.

Loved the cosmetic work done to this Cayman S.
This guy arrived late and was seemingly lost in the crowd when the Aventador showed up. Couldn’t believe a Mercedes SLR McLaren was taking “second place”, haha.
As usual, I began to focus on the amazing details of expensive cars, like the heat vents on the hood of the SLR McLaren and the rear cover of the McLaren MP4-12C Spyder.
Loved the track day war wounds on this Porsche. So great to see a purpose-built car being used for just that purpose!
The always amazing Audi R8 V-10 and the supercharger perched atop the Ford GT’s V8.
Sun sparkling off the Ferrari 458 Spyder.
Slightly confused by the license plate on this F430…
High rent interiors by Aston Martin and Bentley!

A Porsche Carrera GT that was a little late to the party, along with the Aventador’s massive V12.
Awesome details on a Murcielago Roadster.
GREEN paint of a Dodge Viper ACR. Looked like candy!
Hopefully I will be able to make it out next month, as Coffee and Cars has truly become the place to see and be seen in your supercar. There is not a show like it in Houston, and it’s only getting better!
