Bernie's Car Show Coverage: Photos from Caffeine and Octane: May 2017

One week after Caffeine and Exotics, Caffeine and Octane put on their fifth car show of 2017. Held at the Perimeter Mall in Dunwoody, Caffeine and Octane allows car enthusiasts from all over to bring their cars and to show them off. It doesn’t matter if you show up in a Alpina BMW, Ford Bronco, a '63 Rolls Royce with a jar of Grey Poupon on the dashboard, a lowered VW CC, a seasoned Chevy Camaro, or one of the many other vehicles that still allowed those that admire cars to appreciate them for the beauty that they are.

Bernie's Car Show Coverage: 2017 Clean Culture ATL Showdown

My number one goal for 2017 was to step outside of my comfort zone. I'm still working on another project to force myself out of the comfort zone of how I present my coverage. However, I've also realized that I haven't been to a tuner/JDM type show in a couple of years until...

There's some serious determination when it comes to winning the limbo contest.

Clean Culture decided to test the Atlanta waters by holding their first showdown. In case you're a little fuzzy about Clean Culture- in a nutshell, it's a company that believes in  bringing the car show scene together by holding quality shows all over the country. I was amazed over the turnout at their Los Angeles show a few short months ago, so I'd figured that I should check out the ATL showdown that was about 30 minutes north of casa de la Bernie.

I had fun at the show although I should have gotten there earlier. Despite the fact for being there a little bit under two hours, I was able to get some good photos out of it (which is all that matters). To see the rest of the photos, check out Bernie's 2017 Clean Culture: ATL Showdown gallery.

Bernie's Car Show Coverage: Photos from Caffeine and Exotics: April 2017

Atlanta's most exclusive car show is back and better than ever! On April 30th, 2017, Caffeine and Exotics held their first show of the year. Held in the main parking lot of Atlanta’s Lenox Square Mall, Caffeine and Exotics is the younger sibling to Caffeine and Octane.

Caffeine and Exotics had plenty of high end vehicles for spectators to admire. From the Bentley Bentayga, to the Lamborghini Aventador SV, to the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, Ford GT, even down to a 1936 Mercedes Benz, there was plenty to drool over.

Bernie's Car Show Coverage: Photos from the 2017 New York Auto Show

The start of the 2017 New York Auto Show was April 12th, but the official opening day happened to be April 14th. Held in Midtown Manhattan at the Jacob Javits Convention Center, this auto show is never one to miss. With unveilings from Dodge, Mercedes Benz, Chevrolet, Maserati, Range Rover, Porsche, and more, there was PLENTY of ground to cover and PLENTY of eye candy to photograph.

Even though I’m from New York, this was my fifth year going to the New York Auto Show and I absolutely love it. I get a rush of excitement seeing what’s new in the automotive world, as well as some looking at some custom cars within the Tri-State area. I had an excellent time at the show this year. Some of the vehicles that stood out to me was the major unveiling of the Dodge Demon Challenger which is 860 horsepower. Also, the Koenigsegg Agera RS which has 1160 horsepower, the new Lucid Air car which is an electric, luxury car, the new Rimac Concept One hypercar that has 1088 horsepower, the Range Rover Autobiography SV that I was locked in (the child locks were on in the back seats and I couldn't get out until one of the Range Rover representatives opened the door for me), the cozy interior of the Porsche 911 GT3, the plush (and uber comfortable) interior of the Mercedes S650 Maybach Cabriolet, and of course.... the New York Yankees wrapped Toyota Prius. Oddly enough, the vehicle that truly surprised me was the Volvo S90. I was impressed with the aesthetic design, however, the S90 only has 250 horsepower.

Actually, I should have said 45 Interesting Cars plus One Super Cute Dog" as the title. On a gorgeous first Sunday morning of April, Caffeine and Octane put on their fourth car show of 2017. Held at the Perimeter Mall in Dunwoody, Caffeine and Octane allows car enthusiasts from all over to bring their cars and to show them off. It doesn’t matter if you show up in a rose gold chrome wrapped BMW X4I, Chevy Chevelle SS 454, Lamborghini Gallardo, a Shagalicious Jaguar, a Ford Mustang with a supercharged engine, a lowriding Chevy Impala, or one of the many other vehicles that still allowed those that admire cars to appreciate them for the beauty that they are.

Told you she was cute...
