MA Aug. 23rd Cape Cod Cars and Coffee 1

I was talking with a local friend of mine the other day. His girlfriend owns a coffee shop in Mashpee and has tons of parking, about 150 spots. So it got me thinking about a new Cape Cod cruise. For those that don't know me, I put together the Cape Run fall of 07' with 40+ cars of all Mazda models.

Date: August 23rd
Time: Start at 9AM
Location: http://maps.google.com/maps?source=i...image&resnum=1

This is turning out to be a huge meet. Here are the other forums we posted in.

I should also mention I've posted on 2 other Mazda forums with great response. Once I have a list going I'll update here.

can i make a suggestion for the event:

there is a great car museum on the Cape in Hyannis Port. my girlfriend and i went a couple years ago and it was really cool. really (really!) nice rare cars. well worth checking out at least once. i think the owner would appreciate our cars too, as he is a true auto enthusiast. really nice guy.

here's the web site for your consideration: Toad Hall Cars

if you are in for it, i can give the gentleman a call and try to set it up. if not, no biggie. we can set up a cruise to it another time.

Heh, I know him very well. Lived just down the street from him. Have you really looked at those cars recently? Most of them went to **** sad to say. Since he owns over 50 cats or so they are free to wonder inside and out of the cars. Some are in decent shape, but most are torn, craped on, and fur everywhere! Thanks for the idea though.

so do you think he'd give me a good deal on his Exige?

i did notice my pants getting wetter and wetter from each car i sat in to the next. it feels like it actually rains into the convertibles and the barn does not seem properly sealed off. poor cars. great collection though.

whats the game plan?

Right now it's a simple meet to get everyone together and to enjoy our cars and some coffee of course. In the same parking lot is a sports bar. We could hit that up for lunch. I figure most people will enjoy the cruise in if they plan it.

Just an FYI, I have extended this invitation to my YR crew. These guys own BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Lamborghini, basically all high end and some VW + Subie in the mix. Very cool guys.

Here are a few photos from our last meet.
