What is this? A show? A meeting? Does anyone know?

Looks like a meet. Same thing (well, less the exotics *L*) as we do in the summer, a couple car clubs meet up at a local coffee shop, then head out to cruise the local area.

Exactly what FishtailnZ/Bill said, they meet in the parking lot of a building owned by Ford motors monthly to see what new cars out there and basically to enjoy coffee and socialise with other motorheads.

It used to be at crystal cove but the residents complained about noise so they moved it to the Ford parking lot.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the one at the Ford-PAG center in Irvine, CA. Cyberdrakon, V8SLK, Tslick and I have been there once. I'll have to check this Saturday to see if it's still going strong.

Not one photo but several videos. I recall Tslick posted about 3 videos of cars and coffee.

Thanks for the link to the previous post Eddy. I have never seen so many awesome cars all in place. If this were still going on I'd definitely go check it out.

I'm sure it's active every weekend. You may want to check out the Ferrari, Lambo, or Pcar forums to find out what weekend they attend.

We have a similar meet every month here in Honolulu, also called Cars and Coffee. Here's a shot of my SLK trying to fit in next to a Carrera GT
