I could be down for this. Funny I was just thinking we should arrange a meet at this place. If no one is coming from the springs, there is also a Crave in Highlands Ranch. Always hear great things. I'm also located in Thornton and normally stay on the north side, however, given my new plates haven't come in yet, I'm on a temp plate, and thus can drive on the toll way for free.

I need to get plugged in to the track days (never been) and meet ups. I missed the notices on this thread for the ones recently.

I'm thinking of doing the Z1 400 hp upgrade and will need a tune after. I'd be up for a tune day after my big install.

I think this is right up your alley...mine too...cheaper and should be more reliable. Although you might have to rid the berk exhaust parts to accommodate the z1 package...

Yes I might have to drive to this...as far as other z's, buddy I'm everywhere!! You can find me in Lakewood, Thornton, Northglenn, Westminster every day!! Also I will disagree with the fact that these don't make good daily drivers...I've driven over 55k in the last two years here in the Denver metro area..also I think Surfdog can confirm he gets around and packs on plenty of mountain to dia miles every year.

SHADEZZ, THESE ARE GREAT CARS! PERSONALLY, WITH OUR WEATHER SITUATION, I DON'T LIKE DRIVING THE Z WHEN IN MONSOON THUNDERSTORMS OR SNOW. MAY-SEPT DRIVING WOULD BE OK DAILY, BUT CONSIDERING THE WINTER CONDITIONS, I WOULDN'T MAKE THE Z MY DAILY DRIVER.

CANCEL THE CRAVE REAL BURGER MEET, LET'S ALL JUST GO OUT TO THE CARS AND COFFEE MEET IN PARKER THIS WEEKEND. PROBABLY ALOT MORE PEOPLE WHERE WE CAN SOCIALIZE WITH OTHER AUTOMOTIVE ENTHUSIASTS.

I'M GAME FOR THE BELOW.

Depending on the weather outlook I might make it down to C&C tomorrow, bit of a monsoon just came through up here. Rain and thunderstorms seem imminent starting around 1130-Noon tomorrow last I looked so will have to see how it shapes up.

If I make it out, hope to find a few of you there.

Cars and Coffee today had some nice cars!!

I just have just missed you. Nice cars for sure. Comedic award goes to the Ferrari with two baby seats in the back. Only because I wanna be those kids. Was his daily driver over his Jag F-type.

Fwiw a guy I spoke to said Coffee and Cars in Lafayette is huge. 400+ cars. I expected the opposite so will have to check that out some time.

Best part is the rain held off.

Crypto...Cars & Coffee in Lafayette is way bigger..Maybe I'll hit it up next month.

100 miles round trip to work. I always take the z over my sequoia or 330i. Good mileage and man do I love climbing 285 up to Conifer in 350+ hp Z.

I definitely pack on the miles and I do it year round. I only back off for standing snow. This car is pretty bad in snow. Great in the wet though.

Moving to Denver is the next month! soon to be another Z in Denver, can't wait to hopefully meet some of you guys! I'd love to hit up a track day.

[Crypto2k]

Let us know when you're here and I'd be down for a meetup. Some good roads here that need exploring and food to be eaten!

[futurez]

Can't wait, because the roads and traffic blow in PA!
