Now the famous Cars & Coffee meetings have added San Francisco to the list of meeting places. The first event was held on June 28 and will be held every other Saturday on Pier 32 which is directly across from the Muni Metro station. There is a $5 fee to display a car but no charge to attend as a spectator and look at the cars and talk with other car lovers.
“We chose Pier 32 for our events because it can comfortably accommodate 400-450 display vehicles, and is easy to get to for both car enthusiasts and the millions of tourists who annually visit San Francisco.
We have literally become the newest tourist attraction overnight,” said organizer and car collector Geoffrey Palermo. “Owners of Exotics and Vintage cars, pre-1972 American Muscle Cars, electric Sports Cars, and pre-1972 motorcycles are invited to display at our events”.
The owners of the classic Mustangs above must be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Ford Mustang as described by this article at Mitula.
Plenty of parking is available next door at pier 30 at a special $3 show price for those who wish to drive. Coffee, donuts and pastries will be available for purchase. “Our next event will be held Saturday, August 2 from 7:00am to 10:00am.
We encourage car clubs to sign up to display at our website, and will give groups of 20+ a special T-shirt or hat. We plan to showcase a different feature at each event to keep things fresh and interesting for people to attend on a regular basis,” said Palermo.
