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!!

Supposed to be nice tomorrow... albeit a little on the cool side. Especially in the morning.

Damn I've just now found this thread! I would love to go to the C&C in March if there is one.

juniorbean

They have it every month. Typically it's the first Saturday of the month, however, this month they pushed it back in the hopes of getting better (warmer) weather. Looks like no such luck.

I'll update this thread for each meet they have, so once they announce March, I'll add it here...

Sounds good! Thanks!

Has anybody heard anything about a C&C next month? I would be willing to drive over for it!

alexSU

iTrader: (3)

Don't know anything but PM if you come down. I work until 2:30pm but I'm free after that, we can have a 2 car meet lol

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

Haha sounds good Alex! I'll shoot you a PM with my phone number if I decide to drive over.

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.

I am still waiting to hear about the March event. As soon as i get the info I will post it here!!

iTrader: (3)

damn, mods please delete my last post.

my dumbass posted it in the wrong thread! sorry

Beat-Freak...

I will be there...Finally a official update, Thanks juniorbean, btw where the acuraziners gonna be posted up at...?

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

Alex is a dumbasssssss.

And I'm sure I'll get there stupid early, so where should I try to park at? I don't want to park next to a Exige or something

alexSU

iTrader: (3)

yea i know i know lol

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

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

Well I'll just park in the middle of nowhere until somebody else shows up

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

alexSU

iTrader: (3)

hahaha and believe me your car looks way better then mine right now. my rims aren't on yet, no lip kit, stupid springs and the atlp exhaust is sticking out like 5 inches without the lip lol

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

Beat-Freak...

I will be looking for the acuras in the parking lot myself...

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/

BTW, supposed to be a beautiful day tomorrow. Those who go... enjoy!!

chill_dog

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.

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

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

DLntheCL

i guess the COFFEE part of cars and coffee isnt a joke...i got there at 11:45 and didnt see anything but audis, vipers and a few miscelaneous cars and people here and there. good thing i know people up that way so i didnt feel like i drove for nothing. next acura meet that starts after noon ill go but thats the first and last cars and coffee ill go to.

Beat-Freak...

DLntheCL, Im wit you cl...,i was cruising the parking lot at like 12.30ish... Seen the same thing , two white audis ,porshe, maserati... and also seen orange cl wit rims lowered on Harris blvd..Is that you? I was the 2g ssm lowered on the funtions yeah yeah...Afternoon meet for reals dam i missed the aziners....My fault...

alexSU

iTrader: (3)

you guys gotta wake up way earlier then that lol most aziners come out at like 8:30am

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

I was there at 7:15 yesterday morning

Here is a link to a recap of yesterdays C&C:

+2 to those who said get there earlier.

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.





Sorry we missed this one.... we should be at the next one!! But not that early! We usually get there around 8:30am-8:45am or so...

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

No biggie man! We tried to rep Acurazine nicely

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.

^ Hmm... didn't know their was a Raleigh one. There is nothing on their site indicating that. That's pretty cool.

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

^I didn't think so either but Jason (bobbylight83) told me there were over 100 cars in the Briar Creek parking lot.

I guess it's not an "official Cars and Coffee" meeting spot
