The July Meet, presented by Huntington Bank, attracted an impressive array of cars despite record-level heat! This was the hottest weather we have ever experienced at a meet, but that did not stop us. Thanks again to Patty, Jordan, Rob, and the rest of the Huntington Bank team for hosting such a fantastic gathering! To see more photos, find us on Instagram!

This is, by far, our largest event of the season in terms of turnout, with thousands of people coming to the Scioto Mile area to see our display of cars. Thanks to Acura, Nationwide, Huntington Bank, Byers Imports, ESOTERIC, and Lindsay Acura for sponsoring our season and making events like this possible. We also want to thank Milestone 229, the Columbus Division of Police, and our amazing volunteers for their roles in pulling off a great evening in downtown Columbus! Take a look at a few photos from us and Lionworks below, and search #ExoticsonSciotoMile on Instagram for about 1,000 more! The first meet of the season is always special! Everyone is bored after a long winter, the temperatures are rising, and it's finally time to get the car out of the garage! We started our season with our longtime partners at Byers Imports, with a meet at our home for the last few seasons, Whitehall Community Park, directly across the street from Byers Imports. While there was some new construction fencing to work around, we made it work, and stuffed hundreds of cars into the parking lot for a great morning of cars and coffee. Coffee and refreshments were from Das Kaffehaus, hat tip to Herr Joseph who is deployed in Afghanistan! We're back next week on the 27th with a meet at ESOTERIC, see you there! Photo by John Roberts We have officially completed our tenth season and we couldn't have done it without all of you! Thanks to everyone who joined us for the Season 10 Finale hosted by Byers Imports on Saturday. The attendance was so strong that we had to close the entrance just after 11:00. We're sad to say goodbye for a handful of months, but we know Season 11 will be our best yet! Special thanks to George Kauffman, Kevin King, Lindsey Tinsley, and James Warvel from Byers Imports for their hospitality again this season! Byers Imports and The Byers Collection are excellent partners for us and we appreciate them very much. If you're looking for your next ride, give these guys a call! They always take great care of our community! We will post a full season recap post soon, but for now, enjoy these photos from Lionworks from the Season 10 Finale on 11/3. The September Meet hosted by Byers Imports and the Byers Collection was a tremendous success thanks in part to dramatically cooler weather! From the new ZR1 and unbelievable Performante Spyder to the Cadillac on hydraulics, band of Civic Type Rs, and pair of Ford GTs, the turnout was diverse and impressive. Thank you to all who came and participated! Our sponsors make everything possible for us and, in addition to our monthly meets, they unlock special opportunities for our members. Saturday, September 15 was no exception when Marcellus Upshaw from Huntington hosted a private gathering for members at Magnanni, makers of fine men's shoes. The morning was filled with exotic super cars, incredible shoes and accessories, and of course, coffee. Thanks again to the team at Magnanni for being excellent hosts and thanks to all who attended!
Thanks to Nationwide for their support of the third annual Arena District Meet.
Unfortunately, the meet was cancelled toward the beginning due to lightning, but many of our dedicated members enjoyed the morning anyway. We're evaluating when we can reschedule the Arena District Meet. In the mean time, we will proceed on our normal schedule. Photo by Josh Conison Columbus Cars and Coffee is proud to support Rally for The Ranch via sponsorship and car show recruitment support. This year, the show raised nearly $500,000 for The Buckeye Ranch across their three events, including a banquet honoring Danica Patrick, the annual car show, and a party at the IndyCar race at Mid-Ohio. Attendance was at record highs for all three events as well! THANK YOU to the many Columbus Cars and Coffee members (and ALL of our sponsors!) for being part of this fantastic weekend. We're proud to be associated with such a great cause. To see a sampling of the 120+ fantastic cars at the car show, take a look at the slideshow. All photos courtesy of Overdrive Photo. Exotics on Scioto Mile brings the excitement of exotic cars to the heart of downtown Columbus on the scenic Rich Street Bridge.
While the event was impressive in 2017, it was an entirely new level in 2018 with crowds estimated at between 7,000-10,000 people. Thanks to Milestone 229 for hosting our VIP patio party for the second year! Thanks to our season sponsors from Nationwide, Huntington Bank, Byers Imports, and ESOTERIC for their support. Thanks to Patricia Barton, Marcellus Upshaw, and Cary Hager from Huntington Private Bank for hosting our June Meet at their Easton campus! The weather and location were perfect and the automotive turnout was one of the best we've seen for awhile.
A few highlights included the Ford GT, McLaren 720S, V12 Vantage S, Aventador SV Roadster, a Verde Kers Ferrari California, and dozens more. This meet was also an opportunity to honor Porsche for their 70th anniversary. Our Porsche Row parking filled up with more than 30 Porsches, from Caymans and Cayennes to 911s and Boxsters.
