Bernie's Car Show Coverage: 2017 Arts In Motion Show: Anaheim

I just returned from my annual trip to Los Angeles, where I emerged myself in their automotive culture... but everything didn't go as planned.

I usually plan my trips around a "main show" and this year's main show was Extreme Autofest in Anaheim but there was a schedule conflict with the location (The Day N Night festival was held at the Angels of Anaheim stadium, which is where Extreme Autofest was going to hold their show). Thankfully, Extreme Autofest was promoting a Hawaiian based car show called Arts in Motion. Arts in Motion is a show that is mostly geared towards the import/tuner/JDM world with a sprinkle of lowriders. I didn't know what I was in for, since I've never been to Hawaii and I'm unfamiliar with their automotive culture. But there's one thing about me- I don't have any issues emerging myself in other cultures and unfamiliar locations.

On September 9th, I've attended my first Arts in Motion located at the Anaheim Convention Center. All in all, I had a good time especially seeing a lot of cars that I've never seen before. I'll definitely return... to the Hawaii location. I really want to go to Hawaii.

Bernie's Car Show Coverage: Caffeine and Octane: September 2017

My how the time has flown by. This past Sunday, Caffeine and Octane held their ninth show of 2017. Held at the Perimeter Mall outside of Atlanta in Dunwoody, Georgia, Caffeine and Octane allows car enthusiasts from all over to bring their cars and to show them off.

For the past few months, Caffeine and Octane’s attendance (in both spectators and vehicles) has become more and more grandiose. It doesn’t matter if you show up in a Lamborghini Huracan, Plymouth Roadrunner Superbird, a Golf Edition Porsche 918, Ford Mustang Mach 1, a classic Hotrod, 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: Photos from Caffeine and Exotics: August 2017

On August 20th, 2017, Caffeine and Exotics held their third 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 a Panda Inspired Rolls Royce Ghost, Lamborghini Aventador SV, a Liberty Walk wide body Maserati, a few Ferrari 488s, to even a Porsche 911 Carrera S that was a rolling piece of artwork, there was plenty to drool over.

Bernie's Car Show Coverage: Classic Cars from Coffee and Chrome: August 2017

Last Saturday, I actually woke up early enough in time to make it to Coffee and Chrome. Coffee and Chrome is a morning car and motorcycle show that's every second Saturday right outside of Atlanta, in Hapeville, GA.

I would best describe Coffee and Chrome as a smaller show, however the cars that do come are seasoned vehicles that you really don't get to see everyday, especially in the condition that the owner keeps it in. Let's be clear, the owners of the vehicles keep them in such an immaculate condition.

Sorry for the delay. On a gorgeous first Sunday morning of August, Caffeine and Octane put on their eighth 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.

For the past couple of months, Caffeine and Octane's attendance (in both spectators and vehicles) has gotten more and more celebratory. It doesn’t matter if you show up in Atlanta's favorite car- the Chevy Chevelle SS, Lamborghini Huracan, Cadillac Coupe de Ville, Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, a show stopping pink Dodge Challenger, or one of the many other vehicles that still allowed those that admire cars to appreciate them for the beauty that they are.
