Cars & Coffee Charlotte - Official 2010 Thread **UPDATED FOR DECEMBER**
Well, since the other thread turned into a chat thread I figured we should have a new one specifically for Cars & Coffee in Charlotte.
I'll post the monthly events and info, and feel free to use this thread to meet up with others or post pictures from C&C events!!

Next event has been pushed to the 2nd Saturday of the month. Per the C&C website, last February (2009) had over 250 cars show, making it the largest attendance for this location. If that holds true again this year, you won't want to miss this!!

I'll update this thread for each meet they have, so once they announce March, I'll add it here...
Trending Topics
I believe all of the C&C meets are the first Saturday of the month, weather permitting, which means next Saturday the 6th. I'll finally be turning 21 two days after that

I just spent 30 minutes on the C&C Charlotte forum and I didn't see shit about a March 2010 meet. I'll keep my eyes open though.

we usually park in the opposite lot, once an acura parks there, more will pull up eventually.
i was going to park next to a ferrari a few months ago but that would have looked stupid lol

And Alex as hot as your TL is, it doesn't belong next to a Ferrari

but hey, mine might sound just as good as some of the cars out there
not ferrari exotic but pretty good for a 4 door family sedan lol

Let's keep the general chat to a minimum in here and keep it focused on the C&C info, meeting places, and pictures related to C&C.
I moved some of the chat replies to the Charlotte Chat topic. Please use that topic for general chat: https://acurazine.com/forums/southeast-318/%2A%2A-official-charlotte-area-chat-thread-%2A%2A-383653/

Was just about to bump this thread.
I'll probably get out there around/just after 9:00...after getting up ridiculously early the last two days, I want some sleep (although I should still be in bed at 9:00 on a Saturday). I'll look for you guys when I get there.

At least you live close. It's about 2 and a half hours to Charlotte from Cary, so I'll be getting up about 4:45. Plenty of time to make breakfast and make sure I have all of my shit together. Plus I want to get there at 8 so I don't miss anything. I'm assuming that's when everybody is meeting there?
I'm excited I get to put my D60 to proper use
But to keep down on the chat, I'm looking forward to seeing everybody tomorrow! If you haven't met me, please come up and introduce yourself. I tend to go to meets and not talk to the people in person that I talk to on here

It's called Cars & Coffee for a reason... most people are there early!! Plus, it starts at 8am! As chilldog said, the bulk of the action usually starts around 8am-9am. People typically start leaving around 10:30am-11am. Last big one we were at last fall was pretty much empty by 11:00-11:30am... but before that there were about 125 cars, motorcycles and trucks on display. Not to mention the hundreds and hundreds of "spectators". And as the weather warms, those numbers should start increasing...
Also keep in mind that Cars & Coffee is not an Acura or Acurazine meet per say. It is an area meet organized by franchisees of the Cars & Coffee brand. So while many of the local Acurazine members use it as an opportunity to meet up and see some awesome vehicles, we have nothing to do with the organization of the actual C&C meet itself.

Next time I won't leave so early. I thought traffic would be worse that it actually was.
I found out that there is a C&C in Raleigh as well as Charlotte. To keep gas costs down, I may start alternating which meets I go to. Charlotte was this month, I may go to Raleigh next month, and then be back in Charlotte in May.
