Prelude to SS11, 09 RX-8 (CarsNCoffee)

Cesaralaniz and I went to Cars and Coffee in Irvine a week ago today. The same location as Sevenstock and for those of you intrested when we drive down there later next month it will be going on again but in the parking lot accross the street. Being a Mazda Headquarters there were quite a few mazda vechicles (CX-7, CX-9, 2009 Mazda 6, MS3, Mazda 3, Miata, 2009 RX-8, 40th anniv RX-8) Here are a few of the pictures I took.

The Yellow 8 is Cesars car. The Miata had 15 batteries in it. Not sure what kind of BMW that was alpina?

alpina is a german mod company. they have very close ties to BMW. they are even registered as a real car manufacturer in germany.

they make really super awesome editions of the standard cars. that alpina b7 (obviously a 7 series) is a really nice car.

that ferrari you said was the favorite, with the white-green-red stripes down the middle is, i believe, the challenge stradale.

^^well since this is every saturday and SS is saturday just show up early and walk on over. you should be able to briskly walk past all the cars before you roll your rotary in.

I wanted to see a Bugati or a Carrera GT or a Mircalago or a Noble
