If I can peel myself out of bed at 6am on Sunday, I'll be there.

Damn. Looks like I picked the wrong weekend to head down there and visit some family, as I'm gonna miss it by a week.

Hmm... can I drag my ass out of bed before 4AM on a Sunday to drive to CT...

You should. This event is totally worth the effort. Last year, I was stuck in a traffic jam between a '67 Ferrari 330 and a Miura.

Rollin' out in the Z3!

I put the top down yesterday afternoon for today's ride. It's sunny and crisp, 36 degrees at 7 am.

Hey, I just got to the show. Gorgeous day out!

Worth the drive just to hear an LFA sing.

I'm not sure if I saw the LFA, but I was hobbling around on a bad knee so I didn't get a chance to see everything. And it seemed that the only thing that I heard all morning was guys revving their Lamborghini engines.

Naturally, I forgot to grab my camera...

The LFA was hidden behind an office building along Pine. Were you parked at a train station? There was a Z3 leaving just as I pulled in.

In reply to Mitchell:

Yes, I parked at the train station. That was probably me that you saw. I didn't see any Z3s other than a bunch of M coupes. Sorry I missed you. It would have been good to say hello.

I never saw that Lexus. I didn't get behind too many of the buildings.

My MZ3 Roadster was in the Walgreens parking lot along with some other M Coupes.

Did you go to the C&C at Prestige BMW in NJ a few weeks back? Saw a ton of M Coupes/Roadsters. Was a dang cold morning, though!

Cool that a few GRM'ers made it through!

After giving it some thought, I may even prefer New Canaan's event to the late Irvine C&C. Irvine always had an unbelievable array of eye-popping vehicles, but seeing these New Canaan's autos in the wild, parked on the street, is just something else.

Irvine had some great doughnuts, though. While the NE is all high and mighty about pizza, the region doesn't realize that Dunkin' is the Little Caesars of doughnuts.

No, unfortunately I was unable to attend the Prestige Cars & Coffee on April 3rd. There is a great group of M Coupe and Roadster owners active in the NY/NJ/CT area.
