I know that plenty of people consider cars just a way to get from point A to point B. There are also people who eat, drink, breathe, sleep and dream about cars. I'm much closer to the latter than the former. One of the things that I enjoy is seeing exotic and rare cars in the flesh. Making a poster come to life is a really fun experience.
I've been to a few of the German manufacturers museums when I was in Germany. It was a lot of fun to see cars from another continent and their history. BMW and Audi and other makers have plenty to share.
But closer to home, here in SoCal, there are a few "Cars and Coffee" type events on most Sundays. One of the large ones each weekend is in Irvine, but that's pretty far to go. For almost a year now, I've been attending Supercar Sunday. Supercar Sunday was originally sponsored for years by Village Coffee Roasters in Calabasas, CA. However, there were some landlord issues in the strip mall and the event was shut down back in October of 2009.
Over the past two weeks, it has resurfaced in Woodland Hills, right next door. While it hasn't quite regained the strength and size of the prior event, it still had some notable rare and unique cars. For example, a special edition Lamborghini was there, of which only 250 were/will be made. That's not too shabby. If you are out and about Sunday mornings in the West San Fernando Valley, I highly recommend that you stop by. It'll be worth your time. I promise.
