We have a local guy that comes to Cars & Coffee regularly in his GT, it is covered in stickers from the national gatherings that he has driven it to. Awesome to see those cars actually enjoyed.

I would have a really hard time buying a car at BJ. Can you imagine spending six figures for a car that you have never even driven, and very likely not even heard run? A local collector got burned on a 1969 Camaro from BJ, cosmetics were pretty but everything else was crap. It was a "fresh restoration" that was obviously designed to bring top dollar there, with minimal investment.
