Cool Any Metro Atlanta Boxster Owners......

Interested in meeting up for a group showing at the next "Caffeine and Octane" car show on March 2nd in Alpharetta? Its a non competitive gathering with hundreds of cars. Everything from new Lambos to antique trucks. Its starts early(7am-11am) and fills up fast. Great way to spend an early Sunday Morning..........

I'm up for that, as it's right down the street from me. I can either bring the Box or my newly acquired 996

Cool

I live very close too..............Not much of a response here. There are usually alot of Pcars there, but not that many Boxsters. I usually try to get there very early to get a good space in the main lot closest to Windward Pkwy and the entrance into the center. Look for the cleanest boxster thats speed yellow with black wheels......

My dad has a Boxster and goes to C & O but he takes his 914 when he goes. I am sure he can take his Boxster next time.

Cool

'Caffeine and Octane" happens the 1st Sunday of every month. Its a non- competitive car show/gathering. in Alpharetta, Georgia (about 25 miles north of Atlanta. It starts at 7am- 1100am, but alot of people get there at 6-6:30am to get the best spaces. There are usually between 300 to 700 cars there. There are lots of exotics, muscle cars, antique cars and trucks. Plenty of Vettes, Porsches, BMW and MBs for German car people. It gets very crowded and people just go relax and walk around to admire all the beautiful cars. There are several restaurants open for breakfast including a Pancake house, bagel shop and a Cuban restaurant. The location is 3 traffic lights west off GA 400 on Windward Pkwy at Deerfield Pkwy. There is a website and its on Facebook too.

I would go, but that early sounds too much like going to work. I might ride my motorbike over later and cruise the lot. I can always park it on a curb or something.
