The event will happen this weekend and typically it is crowded around the Holidays. If you are bringing a vehicle I'd suggest be there no later than 7am for a good parking spot.
Should you just come to see the cars there is a separate parking location and you can arrive later. Usually cars are leaving by 8am and it is pretty well over by 9 to 9:30.

Do you think they'd shunt my blue-plate Bavaria off to the spectator parking?
Nope, you would be in!
Thanks
Im going to try and make it and bring my new 2800CS. I hope you meet some of you at the event. If you see the car, please say hello as I hear everyone that owns one of these are great people to know.

Do you mean the one at Taci Bell in Irvine?
Ill be there at 6:30 am to seek out other e9 owners. It's where I first met Murray, Paul Cain, HBChris, Ben Thongsai, and many other BMW celebrities. People tend NOT to hang out next to their car for very long so go early so you can meet the BMW guys as they arrive.

PS: HBChris, I'm starting my B35 swap and would be interested in chatting about your engine project if you will be there this Sat.

John and Bill,
I will be there, look forward to seeing both of you. I'm there by 6:15, the earlier the better. Will have coupe or maybe the NK, I will PM my phone number so you can find me. Mike, by all means bring the e3.

I'll get an early start from Pasadena and bring my E34 M5. The E3 Alpina still sits dormant in the garage!

Oh no way - Cars & Coffee is NOT about Lamborghinis and other "gold chain" cars. And, you wouldn't believe how many 2012 Mustangs sneak in! The key, as Chris pointed out, is to get there early. Especially this coming Saturday, the Saturday before Monterey weekend, etc.
Are you seriously coming down from Fairfield?

I'm visiting family in San Marcos, so it's only 50 miles or so. I'll see you guys early Saturday.
Chris is one of the easy guys to find ... he's taller than most people
I parked right next to Bill's amazing Sahara coupe, owned by one family from new, 65K original miles, it is very, very nice and extremely clean and original.
John Feng showed up from Mass. as well as Mike Goble, Gary Hesse, Gary Collins from Escondido, Steve P, David from Encinitas, along with the usual suspects Jay Mackro, Fred Larimer, a new e3 owner Drew, a great morning in Irvine for all and so nice to see owners who aren't able to join us very often.

If you ever want to see what a perfect engine bay looks like, get a photo of Chris' coupe. Amazing, if not a little bit depressing when comparing it to mine.
Nice to meet you all today.

Great Time
My first Cars and Coffee was great . Everyone was very friendly and gave me a great many ideas. If we could do a chip down load on Chris's brain and print it we could have the answers to all Coupe questions.
I plan to attend many more as it has to be a special place in the US car universe.
Thank you all for your kindness.

Well said. Glad you enjoyed your first time there. Couple more and you'll be able to remove your "rookie" stripes!
Great to have met you and as Chris notes your 2800CS is a really nice piece! Well bought and nicely kept.

It was my first C&C as well, and it was great to put faces to the names I see here regularly, as well as seeing in person the fine cars they represent.
It was also very nice to see another E3 on the road, something that has happened to me only once in the seven years I've been running around in mine.

Sorry I missed it.
Great seeing everyone on a especially busy cars and coffee morning
Bill - You have a nice coupe. Very well perserved indeed.
