If the van's a rockin'.....

.....don't come a knockin'.

Today was Cars and Coffee and of course I was there bright and early.  There were lots of cars as usual, but there were very few that I hadn't seen before.  I was mildly disappointed.  :(

Somebody had the bright idea that it would be cool to pimp a $500,000 Mercedes McLaren SLR:

There were Cadillacs there that were just as outlandish.  Who lowers and pimps a Cadillac?  (Oh, I forgot...the Dallas Felons are on strike.  Now I know what they're doing with all their strike/lockout time.)

While I'm not that impressed with new Camaro's as a rule, I must admit this one had a dynamite paint job.  (Click any picture to enlarge.)  Five bucks says it's never seen a Walmart parking lot.  

I'm more partial to classic understated elegance, like this 1965 Porsche 356.  If it were for sale, and if I had a few spare coins, I'd love to have it.  Isn't she a beaut?  (Yes, she....female.  Only females can be "beauts".)

Or maybe this Jaguar E-Type.  Has there ever been a car more beautiful?

Tonight K and I are going to the Angelika to see Carla Bruni and her supporting cast in Midnight in Paris.  I'll have a review for you sometime later.  

Hope you're staying cool and having fun this weekend.

Regards,
