Cars & Coffee this Saturday (and every first Saturday of the month) at Scottsdale Rd. & Double Tree Ranch - 7:00a to 9:00a or so, I've never stayed until the end.

Didn't have one in March (due to rain), so hopefully the turn out for this one is even better (usually it's pretty ******* sweet regardless).

I guess that would be important information.

It's Saturday. It's the first Saturday of every month. I'll edit my post as well.

Hopefully I can get my tires mounted to my new wheels (should be here tomorrow! ) and my new front rotors on before Saturday too, that'd be sweet.

Oh, and FYI, the Penske Cars & Coffee (every third Saturday of the month @ Scottsdale Ferrari) is quite a bit smaller and boring. Very little parking, no where near the amount and variety of cars as the Double Tree Ranch show.

I looked it up on map and looks like its in the shoppes at gainey something or other. Any place specific there? I don't get up that direction ever. I have to be at work at 9am back in the east valley so 32 min each way I can hopefully see a few cars, meet a few people get some gas and head back to work. I will be easy to spot as my car is three different colors right now. I have a black bumper, white fenders and the rest is plat graphite. If ya see me say hi. Almost positive I can be there.

That's correct, the Shoppes at Gainey. It's all throughout that parking lot.

If you're coming from Shea (South on Scottsdale Rd from there), go through the light @ Double Tree and turn in at the next light - it's easier to get to a parking spot and you don't have to mob through the crowds and close to $250,000 cars. Did it once and I said I'd prefer running over a person than into a Lambo.

I'll be making the trip to Cars and Coffee and then deciding on joining the supercar run if you guys are up there. Its been pretty packed lately so I'm going to try to hit it at like 7am since the Supercar meetup is at 830 and in the same area.

Hopefully I can get my car washed after my wheels are put on later today, before C&C. May have to suck it up and do it myself... I have zero patience, esp. after this week.

Do what I do since I dipped my car... Go to one of those $1.25 for 4 minute DIY places. Bring a couple towels, windex, and detail wax. I cant use wax or normal towels, but windex for the windows.. I usually use $2.50 total and spend about 15 minutes of my time.

But they have the foam, with the brush, and power washer with built in soaps and rinses.. Idk.. I have fun with it. Usually wear my bikini

Every time I pull into the DIY carwash spot by me there is a huge clump of mud in every bay, I cant imagine what sort of love the brush would give my paint. But we use a mobile detail guy for $30, definitely taking advantage of that in the summer.

Hey Sean:

Does your company replies to emails? I sent an email at the start of the week and no reply

Here's a copy:

"What type of tuning do you do? e.g.; UpRev etc.

Also, do you recommend a tune for my application? I have 09 370 7AT with Stillen Gen 3 intakes, Nismo H & Mid pipes with Top Speed axle back exhaust and 24 row oil cooler. I don't plan on adding anything else.

What types of gains could I expect and what would be the cost?"



Althought I was thinking about possibly a set of HFC's but don't really want to make my exhaust louder or rasp. Exhaust sounds great now.

Sorry for the issues boss, we don't offer tuning but UMS in Mesa is a Uprev dealer. HFC's are definitely going to add some sound, but not too much rasp, I will have Ralph PM you on some options. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

Does your mobile detail guy do a good job? You mind sharing his info?
