Flash- New News

Good news! C&C will be held on Sunday, March 10th from 8 am to 10 am. We will be on a month to month basis so stay tuned for updates.

What: Cars and Coffee
When: Sunday, March 10, 8 am to 10 am
Where: Kakaako Piano lot, 160 Ahui Street, mountain side of the Children's Discovery Museum, enter via Ohe Street

Keep the area clean so we can be invited back next month.

 

That is great. I will try to be out there.

 

Looking at the map, is that near Fisherman Wharf? Go straight from Ward Ave heading toward the water.

 

Yes, it's near.

Look for the parking lot across from the Children's museum, or look for the large collection of cars.

It's not the public parking lot for Kakaako park.

 

Thanks, I will try to be there.

 

Sorry I could not make it. It rained all morning. Will try again next time if I have a chance.

This event is annual usually in May or June at Kapiolani Park sponsored by the British Car Club of Hawaii.

Aloha British car fans,

Calling all British car owners! The gathering of the faithful is set for May 26th. This is the 21st year of the All British Car Day and all
cars are welcome. This is not a judged concourse, but rather a show and shine event. The location is the same as in the past. The lot adjacent to the Waikiki Shell¹s mauka parking lot, across from the Honolulu Zoo. Start time is 9am and finishing up at 1:00pm with a trophy ceremony and door prizes provided by Jaguar Hawaii, JN Automotive Group, and Mini of Hawaii, Moss Moters, XK Unlimited, Victoria British, and Welsh just to name a few.

We would like to get as many cars as possible to meet at Ala Moana Center, upstairs by Sears before 8:30am to stage for a parade through Waikiki on the way to the park. Please contact Rob at 808-429-6602.

If you would like to be the parade. This worked out great last year and generated a lot of interest from our out of town guest staying in Waikiki while boosting attendance at the show.

In the past we have collected from car owners a small entrance fee of $5.00 at the park to help offset the cost of putting on the event. We had also sold event tee shirts (at cost), which have always sold out. Unfortunately we no longer can do this at the park, as accepting money violates the terms our permit with the city. So this year we are asking folks to pre-register for the show. Please see attached form below, and send it in today. This will help us plan for food and tee shirts. We will also accept forms the day of the show, but please send in your form, with payment, no later than Thursday, May 23 to be included on the master list.

Call Rob at 808-429-6602 for more info.

Next Hawaii EuroSunday Event is tomorrow

Date and Time: 23 February 2014; 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. / Potluck Picnic from 11:30 a.m.

Location: Manoa Marketplace 2851 East Manoa Road / Pu'u 'Ualaka'a State Park Round Top-Tantalus Drive

Event Information:

Hello Fellow Euro Enthusiasts,

Please join us at the top.

Sunday will mark the third annual EuroSunday Round Top Drive to the summit of Mount Tantalus. We'll have a potluck picnic in the Pu'u 'Ualaka'a State Park to relax and talk-story with friends old and new.

The panoramic view from Diamond Head and East Honolulu through to the Leeward Coast beyond the Honolulu Airport is breathtaking!

We'll start EuroSunday with our gathering in the Manoa Marketplace parking lot (along East Manoa Road) from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. From there we'll drive to the top and expect to picnic from 11:30. It's Hawaiian Potluck, which means bring your favorite foods to share. You can make it yourself if you're skilled, otherwise there are several shops in the marketplace where you can buy-and-bring.

The winding drive up Mount Tantalus takes us above the city crowd, through a dense and canopied rainforest, past tall bamboo growing along the road's edge. Take the drive easy or spirited, but keep your windows down so you can catch the fragrant smell of white ginger along the way.

EuroSunday welcomes all automobile enthusiasts to its events, especially European marques. Participation is open to the public and free. The Hawaii Section of the Mercedes-Benz Club of America is a sponsor of EuroSunday along with Team BMW Hawaii. McDonald's Restaurant of Hawaii and Miles Ichinose (MBCAH member) is our sponsor of the EuroSunday at Manoa Marketplace gathering.

First Hawaiian Auto Show March 14-16, 2014

MINI Club will not be showing any cars due to lack of space,
No cars displayed on upper levels as in previous years.

 

This sounds like something I could possibly attend. Thanks for the info.

Is there a date/time you or others will be there?

 

It's an annual Honolulu Car Show with dealerships showing models that are current.
You can go any of the three days and sit in many of the models. Not sure which day I will go but likely during the least busy times, Friday during the day is nice. it will be very crowded Friday and Saturday nights.

 

Friday sounds good. Will finalize later.

I like car shows. Spent lots of time at Chicago and New York car shows. But they tend to keep the visitors away from the cars.

 

This will be my first year *working* the Auto Show! Stop by and say hi to the tall gorilla in a MINI shirt.

We've got our fingers crossed for an F56, but no official word yet. Apparently there are only so many cars allocated for the auto show circuit. We will definitely have info though, and motoring advisors that will have attended F56 training!

 

Glad you reminded us you are "working".

Do you have your work schedule for the show?, I know you have certain times/hours.

MINIKahuna said you have lots of models so space is tight this year.

F56? What happened to R?
