We are two guys that love Corvettes and 60's muscle cars. Nothing against muscle from the 70's or 80's but, this is our blog, and these are our thoughts. I am George Phillips, he is Gary Archa and together we will share our words and thoughts about cars. Enjoy the ride!

Welcome Visitors

I recently sent out an email blast inviting people to this site - If you are here because of that email - welcome - and if you just happen to find our site while browsing the web - isn't the internet amazing?  Check out the links for the Photos and Videos page.  We are new at this and learning.

Enjoy, and may the Porsche be with you...

Cars and Coffee

On the large lot of Classic BMW Plano, Texas Cars and Coffee Dallas holds a car show on the first Saturday of each month.  The event goes for 4 hours from 8am to 12pm.  There are lots of cars and a great deal of coffee as well.  Check out our Photo and Video page for some cool videos I found out on YouTube.  I wasn't prepared for the excitement and volume of cars that I found - there were around 300 cars on display.  You simply show up with your ride and there is a guy that directs you to the proper section for whatever it is you are in.  For most of us it was just taking in all of the sights and sounds.  My wife and I went this last Saturday and there was everything from '54 Sting Rays to some Corvette Grand Sport Editions, a Bentley convertible, a classic Rolls Royce and a beautiful Mercedes Benz stretch sedan.  Also found were beautifully restored VW Bugs, new and older Mustangs, Shelby's, Vipers and yes a BMW or two and a really awesome '60 Impala that made me envious.









Forgive me for the photography - I took these pics with my iPhone and it's the older model.  Next time I'll be prepared for the show.  My wife and I learned about the car show a while back while sitting at the traffic light next to the dealership - as you see with the videos on the Photos and Videos page, Dude's will get on it when they leave the lot...such was the case on this particular day.  I checked the Classic BMW website and discovered this was a regular event.  It has been on my calendar to do ever since, but this was the first opportunity when nothing else was interfering with the time table.  Take a look - here's the Cars and Coffee website.  Check it out and when in town, or at one of the other locations, take it in.  You won't be disappointed.
