Minneapolis MN Cars & Cafe, Saturday April 4th

Hey guys,

It's getting to be that time of the year again. Last year, we decided to have our first event in April, and hopefully the weather will cooperate with us to do it again this year.
Our last event in October of last year brought out over 250 cars plus hundreds of other spectator cars.

As those of you have attended know, this event brings out the best and most rare cars in MN and WI.


Location:
The location is the Minneapolis AutoMotorplex located at:
1740 Motorplex Ct. Chanhassen MN (About 10 minutes away from the old location)
Please check out the Motorplex’s website for map and other details: http://www.automotorplex.com/
For people traveling east of 494 we would encourage you to take the Crosstown (62) extension (HWY 5) the where it becomes 212, exit on Powers Blvd (Which is 1 exit past 101) go right, drive approx 500 ft and turn left on Lyman (at the light) travel approximately 1 mile, turn right on Audubon and we will be 1.1 mile on the left.


Please mark your calendars with the following dates:

May 2nd
June 6th
July 4th
August 1st
September 5th
October 3rd

Same here, I just hope the weather is nicer for the drive home. It did make for good stories though.

Absolutely!

It looks like the R8 pictured above is in the exotic section. Just show up with your car and someone will direct you to your spot!
