ATL - Caffeine and Octane in Marietta

For those of you that have heard of Cars and Coffee in LA (weekly impromptu car show on Sunday mornings), Atlanta has its own little variant, once a month in Marietta. This is an informal all makes car gathering that happens the first Sunday of every month from about 8-11am.

Here's the address:

The Avenue East Cobb
4475 Roswell Road
Marietta, GA 30062
MAP LINK

If I can get my wipers working to combat the morning dew, I just might roll out early and see what's up. Any other takers?

BTW, if you go Googling, you'll see it listed on Saturday mornings. It was recently changed to Sundays.

Nobody went, but here are the pics:

Next meet is Nov. 1. If you want to see Lambos, GTRs, and some old muscle, it looks like a good crowd.

That looks like Charlie's car (from MazCare). Has a V8 in it.

I almost went yesterday, but we were feeling lazy.

I used to go pretty frequently, but there were no other rotaries to show up(LS1 7s don't count). I usually went with Terry, the guys who's website is posted above.

I've pretty much given up on it, but I would show up if there was a bigger rotary turnout. I heard the turnout for the most recent event was really good. There are usually a ton of really nice rides too (R8s, GTRs, Porches galore, GTMs, etc).

Crit, thx for posting this. You were telling me about this at the last OGTA meet. I am more than likely gonna go to the next one. Once I get my 1967 Ford Bronco at the end of the year, I am gonna drive that to the event.

Are they still doing this? Looks like the official Cars & Coffee site is for sale and the last references i can find for Atlanta area events were from 2010.
