If Hickory is anywhere near Lizard Lick, you should look up Moo.

That site is useless. There are LOTS more C&C events that aren't listed here. I know of two Cars and Coffees that take place on a regular schedule within 20 miles of me. (during the warmer months, that is...)
Best way to find out is to inquire with some local car clubs.

For those that don't know -- Cars and Coffee is simply a un-official "Car Show" or Cruise-in that takes place in the morning instead of at night. A bunch people getting together to show off, admire and talk cars.
There's usually no competition or trophies, etc., but sometimes there are raffles.

I use to go the New England Alfa Romeo Club events, but I did not think many people were friendly and was a hassle.

There's an auto museum about 5 miles from my house that has lawn events and I go to about half of them. It does not matter to me so much which marque is represented as I like just about all cars.

Jimmie Cone on the first and third Saturdays during the summer.

You should hit the Haverhill one on Sunday mornings. Langod and I hit a bunch of cruises with these guys and I can say these are a bunch of great guys! Love to talk to everyone and check out new rides.
I know there are a bunch in and around MA for Coffee and Cars and just cruises. Me personally, Coffee and Cars = too early for me!!!!

There's a good one at Herb Chambers Dealer in Weston (previously FMW). Herb had his McLaren F1 there. There's a 2011 Jag XJ launch party tonight at Lee Jaguar in Wellesley. I am thinking of stopping by for free food and drink

Thursday evenings at Giovannis Pizza here in La Habra. A fairly big crowd of rods and customs gather for pizza, beers and conversation. It's a good time

I'd rather go to rods and customs then look at parking lot of stock Porsches and Ferrari's. Each custom is "custom" and unique. Lots of fabrication and thought is appealing for me to see; especially when tastefully executed.

true but I also like seeing cars I've dream about driving some times. Also its fun messing with people that drive porsches and ferraris that have no clue about the cars there driving. can anybody say "blinker fluid".

Thursday nights at Kimball's Icecream in Westford has a big show. They pull in pretty much every kind of car, but if you're showing the last couple of years you have to get there early.
