I think there is a Ferrari Club in this area. A former coworker had a friend that belonged to it. I believe they have meets a couple times a year but do not know where or when. He would go to them. Jay

Yes, there's definitely some sort of club in Glastonbury. My cousin said they usually meet at Dunkin and Starbucks. He has had the opportunity to meet and take photos of some of the cars, and said the guys who formed the club are very friendly and love to talk about cars.

the "club" isn't located anywhere, they meet in Glastonbury because its a central location in the state.

THey look for a few things, a parking lots that is somewhat secure, located centrally in CT, easy to access by a highway, parking lot needs to be paved and in good condition, some shade is ideal, benches are a plus, has access to bathrooms, some food, drinks, not totally out in the open, but also not hidden away.

They've been meeting for over 10 years on sunday mornings there, but the location can change at anytime.

the guys are super friendly. a lot of times people think they're together to show off their cars, but its really just for them to get together and talk about cars in person.

Yes, thank you for clarifying that. Kind of had a feeling I worded it wrong. My cousin said the same thing you mentioned; bunch of friendly guys who love cars and a good conversation about them.

We’ve had quite a few Ferrari’s at Milford Cars and Coffee. We even had a new Bugatti Chiron last year ($3.25 million).

The craziest show by far is Caffeine and Carburetors in New Canaan. That’s the most exotic and rare cars you’ll ever see at once in the northeast.

I haven't been there in a few years, but they were meeting at the Starbucks on Glastonbury Blvd at the time. I can't imagine they've changed the place.

I put that 2nd behind the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance, but its really more of 1a and 1b, both are beyond nuts.

Greenwich is more tightly curated. C&C for sheer volume is just insane.
