In Central Ohio, we're fortunate to have Honda of America Manufacturing right up the road in Marysville. In addition to building some of the greatest "everyday" cars on the road, they also created the venerable Acura NSX, which is built at their Performance Manufacturing Center right here in Ohio.

For the second year in a row, our friends at Honda opened the doors to their Honda Heritage Center for a special event with us. Part Cars and Coffee meet, part museum tour, part technical presentation, this event is always a favorite for our group, especially the Honda/Acura fans among us.

This year, we were treated to a display of NSX cars, both first and second generation, including the Pikes Peak car and a specially built hand controlled racing version! In the lawn, Honda displayed one of every generation of Accord ever built, including the all-new version which just debuted recently. Inside, a fascinating presentation about Honda's R&D efforts was given, including videos from inside their wind tunnel, design studio, and even crash simulations.

Thanks to Honda for hosting this fantastic experience! We appreciate their hospitality and willingness to share what they're all about with Columbus Cars and Coffee. 

​Thanks also to Will Motivation for providing the coffee for this event. Visit to his YouTube channel here.

This month, we tried a new location; the Whitehall Community Park across from Byers Imports. We were looking for an open layout and more parking capacity and this lot turned out to be a great fit!

Thanks to our friends at Byers Imports and The Byers Collection for hosting yet another spectacular cars and coffee! We couldn't do it without them! Additionally, we want to thank the City of Whitehall for making this space available to us.

The turnout this morning was spectacular. While we didn't count cars (we will do so next time), we're guessing there were 400 present today. Take a look at a few below, and peruse our Instagram account for more photos daily.

A quick update on the Columbus Cars and Coffee FlexFit hats; we sold out of them today and we won't have any more in stock for at least a few weeks! Thanks to everyone who has purchased one so far. We enjoyed seeing so many of them today!

Lastly, don't forget to register for the Honda Heritage Center event on September 23. Honda has put together a really nice display of cars and opened the doors to the Heritage Center for the second year in a row. We can't wait to see what they have in store! To sign up at no cost, click here.

We're trying a new location this month! Due to the record turnouts our Season 9 meets have attracted, we're moving the September Meet to the Whitehall Community Park at 402 N. Hamilton Rd, directly across from Byers Imports.

This location has more parking (you can see the difference in the satellite photo below) so we can accommodate even more cars.

Thanks to the City of Whitehall and Byers Imports for arranging this new location for Saturday!
