We finally made it to the Rancho Santa Fe Cars & Coffee. The first thing that stands out is the rows of cars everywhere. Ferrari, McLaren, Porsche, Classics, Tuners, and more. So, where do we start?
2.
What makes this Cars & Coffee different is the village vibes you get with its small streets and narrow sidewalks. There are small groups of car enthusiasts at the corners. There are plenty of cars and people watching on the main street. It’s nice to see people cruising on a Saturday morning. No burnouts. Just the beautiful sound of exotic cars as they fly by or pull away.

As we walked around, we found some of our favorite Porsches (Air and Water), Ferraris from the 90s and early 2000s, and McLarens, including one in HENZO Green 😉.

There are alleys, private parking lots, and side streets with more cars to find. I overheard how there is a McLaren that is always parked in the exact same spot every Saturday.

"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade."
As we drove away from RSF, I felt really good about all the video clips I got. I believed this was to be my best video yet. I was so certain of it. I felt like Wayne Gretzky, anticipating which cars were leaving and moving into position to take my shot. But when I got home, I discovered I had accidentally hit the “Slow Motion” button (NO!). And to make matters worse, no sound is recorded in this mode. After googling, I discovered there is no fix. I had to accept the edit I had imagined was gone. And make something with what I had. So, I put on my creative hat and made this video. I hope you enjoy it.
