Been to c-n-c in Irvine. It was cool to see so much in one place. Not a usual occurrence in CO.
Favorite pic from that visit:
I will say that seeing 20+ Audi R8s parked in a row someone diminishes the unique factor.
Also been to one in Great Falls, VA - Loudan County is consistently listed as one of the richest counties in the country, so exotics are common place. It was the older cars that caught my attention like this:
mmmm Panterray goodness
The closest thing I saw in CO like c-n-c is the Friday night meetup at the Sonic on Hampden & Tower. Lots of old muscle and tuners... not a lot of exotic.
Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

This Sat. down in Parker. I'll keep an eye on the weather. I know some other people were interested so here is the Monday Bump

Vehicle Vault announced that they've finally made progress on their parking lot and it can now hold a couple hundred cars. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and it will be a good turnout. Here's the link to their FB page for the C&C: https://www.facebook.com/events/1476096872643410/

I've seen that Veyron on 93 too, and it was going fast! It's one thing to see an expensive car, it's another to see it driven like it was meant to be. I hated driving on PCH and a guy in a Porsche just comes creeping on, holding up traffic.
I think a lot of the exotic cars you see here are rentals? I know there's Mile High Drives and Oxotic, maybe amongst others? I bet if I get accustomed to their fleet I'll notice that the majority of the nice cars you see here are the same ones. I caught up to an orange gallardo on 36 on my R6 and got excited but then it exited on broadway. Sure enough, there's Oxotic there and they rent an orange gallardo.
Need to get my TSX boosted so then I will feel like I should be going to these events. There's so many car events around Denver I want to go to
Present: 2006 GSXR 750 (black/yellow), 2006 Yamaha R6r (blue)
Sold: 2011 Ninja 250 (green/black), 2007 R6s (blue)
I will be over there early for a little while to see how it goes.

I'm going today as well, but probably won't be there until around 10:30. Gonna let it warm up a little first.

The C&C in Lafayette (first Saturdays?) is great. Highly recommended even if it's a bit of a haul from Denver. I saw every type of car there, antique, classic muscle, both stock and racers, imports new and old, etc. I'm definitely taking my Bee up there October 3 if it's happening still. I don't know how big the Park Meadows one gets, but the ManCave/VehicleVault meets are huge.
I've heard about that black Veyron down South. The owner of Platinum 84 club in Thornton has a black Huracan. One of only two factory black ones in Colorado, BADASS! Bad phone picture at night. Front wheel gap is because it's parked on a steep angle, can't tell from the photo. I'll have to find out if he ever brings it in the daytime to get a good photo:

'08 Yamaha R1 (black), mostly stock. Past bikes: '98 VFR-800 (red), '01 CBR-929RR (white/red), '05 Yamaha R6 (white), '08 Yamaha R1 (blue).
'94 Supra Turbo 6spd. (black), BUILT motor/head, CompTurbo CT43-xx, '69 Dodge Coronet SuperBee tribute, 440/520 SixPack stroker, auto.
Usually split time between rides. Sometimes I take the Tuono, others, the Opel...
Charleston's C&C... Lots of American muscle, Italians and oddballs... Entirely too many subies.
