Cars and Coffee 2011
I’m pleased to announce that an event I’ve been involved with since it’s inception is now being sponsored by Morrie’s Automotive Group. I originally got involved with Cars and Coffee back in 2008 when I was working at our Maserati \ Bentley store. Back in April of 2008 – we had 30 cars. By August we had close to 300 and had to move the event.
We found a home at the AutoMotorPlex in Chanhassen – where it’s been held ever since. Beginning in 2009 Twin Cities Luxury Auto (Maserati & Bentley) became official sponsors, and the event continue to draw new amazing cars – everything from vintage muscle cars, to a Lamborghini Murcielago LP640. I’ve seen a Ferrari 250GT, a Ferrari Lusso, a Singer Gazelle, and more Jaguars, Porsches, Audis, and VWs than I can count.
With the growth of the event the guys that host this show needed to add sponsors, but didn’t want to lose the best part of the show – it’s a show for enthusiasts, by enthusiasts, and they didn’t want it to turn into commercial free for all. We were happy to step up our sponsorship, and include not only our Maserati & Bentley store, but the entire Morrie’s group. Over the coming months we’ll feature brands from throughout our organization, and commitment free test drives for anyone that wants to check out something new or different. This is a seriously cool car event for anyone that likes cars – and best of all, it’s free.
Cars and Coffee is the first Saturday of each month, from April through October, 8am – 11am. Show parking fills up fast, so if you’ve got something to show – get their early for the best spots. We’ve got plenty of on-site and nearby public parking.
Head over to the official Minnesota Cars and Coffee website, mncandc for tons of photos and videos from past events, plus maps and contact information.
