Cars & Coffee
Classic cars, muscle cars, and exotics at Cars & Coffee event

This weekend we hosted a Cars & Coffee event to celebrate the grand opening of our newest showroom and service department. The air was chilly and the skies were gray, and there were several other automotive events happening around St. Louis on the same day; and still over 100 cars and several hundred people came to visit!

Working with the Cars & Coffee St. Louis team was a great experience. We hope to host...

Herbie the Love Bug is a 1963 Volkswagen Beetle who is the star of several Disney movies and TV series. The lovable VW has a mind of his own and he is a serious contender in auto races where he often drives himself! His look has often changed slightly since his introduction in the late 60’s, but he is distinguished by red, white and blue racing stripes that run from front to back, a racing style number 53 on the front trunk lid, doors,...

In the early 1990’s, German sports car manufacturer Porsche was facing hard times. Sales were slumping in the US, their largest market. The company was small and their only three models - the 911, 944, and 928 - were viewed as boutique sports cars.

This 1965 Shelby Cobra replica was professionally built from a Classic Roadster kit with a 302 c.i. fuel injected V8 and a T5 5-speed transmission. The Ford 8.8” rear end with a 3.73:1 ratio rockets her off the line and the Metallic Jade Green exterior keeps her looking good standing still. The Cobra was built in Tennessee and has been to Louisiana (where it survived hurricane Katrina!) and Arizona, and recently made its way to Fast Lane...
