Talking SW Boston Cars & Coffee - Saturday 9:00AM Walpole, MA - Starbucks (Sharon Line)

Inaugural GTG this Saturday 4/23 at 9:00am. Weather permitting this event will take place. Highly accessible location with Route 495 not too far away and right off Route 95. An every Saturday event is the plan until the first snow.

Location: Starbuck's in Walpole, MA. This is a friendly location just off of Route 95 on the corner of Routes 1 & 27. The actual Starbucks lot is tiny, however, there is a large parking lot immediately behind the Starbucks (Big Y Supermarket).

Official Address Info: Starbucks, 985 U.S. 1, Walpole, MA 02081, (508) 668-2701. Google place page HERE

With the Highway so close-by there will plenty of easy high speed driving for all who gather.

Looking forward to seeing some new and old faces/cars.

I can't make it tomorrow, but I look forward to attending one soon.

Best regards,

Just looked out and don't see fire & brimstone, hail, snow, sleet, or heavy rain. So, I am going to head over

So I woke up this morning to heavy rain in southern RI. I figured that I would just wait until next weekend. Hopefully the rain will not show up!

Two Rennlisters braved the rain and between them one Porsche made it. Better weather is approaching

Great to meet everybody at the most recent Walpole GTG. 2nd meet was better than the first Thanks to all the RI guys that made the trip...Dino, Ryan and Scott look forward to seeing you at future events.

Nice Porsches and a fairly sunny day made for a fun gathering. Interesting mix of vehicles attended: 3 Porsches, 1 Old Muscle Car and 1 New Muscle Car. Many folks stopped by to take a look at the cars, ask questions and enjoy the collection.

A few enthusiasts made inquiries and will be attending future events. Hope to see more P-Cars in attendance.

Hi guys,

Erik, it was great to meet you and it was a beautiful day for a drive. Sorry I couldn't stay longer. I look forward to attending another one of your gatherings in the future.

Ryan, sorry I had to leave just as you arrived (I had an appointment to look at some homes back in RI, and of course I had to go to check out the garages ). However, I look forward to catching up with you at another car event soon. Your 993 is looking great!

Best regards,
Dino

I'm bummed that I couldn't make it last weekend. Helping my parents move and juggling chores at him is severely cutting into the car/driving/fun time.

Default Best Weather

I was the lone wolf at the last GTG and it was the best weather yet. Hoping for a better turn-out as the weather continues to improve.
