Best of BMW CCA Cars & Coffee (October 2025)

 Another monthly local cars & coffee is complete, that being the October 2025 edition of the BMW CCA Cars & Coffee. This month's meet that took place last Saturday morning had a smaller turnout than the past few months, likely due to other car shows and events taking place locally and out of town that day and weekend. The field this month was similar to previous BMW CCA Cars & Coffees, consisting of 90 percent BMWs, some Japanese tuners, a few Porsches and other European imports, and a few other enthusiast cars. While it may not have had as much to offer as other previous cars and coffees I have been to, this latest one still offered a decent selection of cars on display and some others that made brief appearances as well. Featured here are my top ten favorite cars in no particular order that I saw at the most recent local BMW CCA Cars & Coffee. In addition, I saw three other cars that made brief appearances at this cars and coffee that I would have included here as well, specifically a previous-generation Aston Martin Vantage, a previous F90-generation BMW M5 Competition, and a 991.2-generation Porsche 911 Carrera, but I only saw those three cars for a second or two before they disappeared, resulting in me being unable to get photos of them. Since I have seen several examples of those three cars and taken photos of them before, being unable to get photos of them that time was not a big deal to me. With that being said, enjoy this photo compilation and stay tuned for more new and exciting content coming soon.

Lowriders of the Sharks 2025-26 Season Opener

 I attended the San Jose Sharks season opener versus the Vegas Golden Knights on Thursday night, and despite the unfavorable end result, I would not have wanted to be anywhere else that night. More on my personal experience from that game specifically can be found on my hockey blog, CPF Hockey. A pregame festival was held just outside of the SAP Center since it was the Sharks' first game of the season, and this post is dedicated to showcasing one of the main attractions of the Sharks season-opening pregame festival: the classic lowrider show. I tend to feature more European exotics than any other type of car on this site, but I have always been fond of classic lowriders, and the biggest incentive for me to feature these and put this compilation together is the collision of two of my worlds: cool cars and Sharks hockey. In fact, I find many of these lowriders cooler than most of the ones I have seen before, especially in my hometown, due them featuring some Sharks hockey-themed aspects. I was fortunately able to snap at least a few photos of each lowrider on display outside SAP Center before the arena gates first opened. If I had to pick favorites out of this bunch, I would have to choose the 1960s Impalas and the retro Sharks logo as the center of the steering wheel inside the 1986 Monte Carlo. 

On a side note, the coolest and most memorable car I saw in San Jose Thursday evening was the first Rolls-Royce Spectre that I have ever seen in person. I managed to get one photo of it; however, the one photo I took of it was not particularly great, and I would rather save my dedicated post regarding the latest Rolls-Royce coupe on this site for when I am able to get more and better photos of one in the future. It may be unlike nearly all other car shows I have been to or normally attend, but this lowrider mini show was an incredible spectacle worth viewing, especially since it combines my top two passions in a unique way. Watch this space for content from the latest local BMW CCA Cars & Coffee coming up next.
