April’s Cars and Caffeine Was a Massive Hit—Over 1,800 Cars and an Atmosphere Like No Other
Middle Tennessee’s automotive scene just had its biggest moment yet. On Saturday, April 12th, over 1,800 vehicles rolled into Franklin, TN for the inaugural Cars and Caffeine at 111 Motorclub—and it’s safe to say the bar has officially been raised.
With cars lined up for miles and the clubhouse buzzing with energy, this wasn’t just another car meet—it was a full-blown celebration of car culture in its purest form. From exotic hypercars and vintage icons to track builds and lifted trucks, there was something for everyone. And judging by the smiles, selfies, and stares, this was a morning to remember.
A Record-Breaking Turnout
What started as a vision to bring car enthusiasts together in a more elevated way turned into one of the largest single-day car events the region has ever seen. Thanks to the 111 Motorclub team, local car communities, and dozens of partners, Cars and Caffeine welcomed over 1,800 vehicles and thousands of spectators from across the Southeast.
Registered spots filled quickly, overflow lots were at capacity, and foot traffic through the club’s 70,000 sq. ft. facility never slowed down. It wasn’t just a crowd—it was a movement.
Pagani Steals the Spotlight
In a field packed with rarities, few cars stopped people in their tracks like the Pagani Huayra that made a surprise appearance. With its hand-sculpted carbon bodywork, exposed suspension, and aerospace-grade detailing, the Huayra drew a steady crowd all morning. For many attendees, it was their first time seeing one in person—a bucket-list car if there ever was one.
But the Pagani was far from alone. Also spotted on the lot:
- McLaren P1, 720S, and Artura
- Ferrari SF90, F40, and multiple 458s and 812s
- Porsche GT3 RS, Turbo S, Singer DLS, and several 911 builds
- Lamborghini Huracán STO and Aventador SVJ
- Classic air-cooled Volkswagens
- JDM icons including R34 Skylines, Supras, and RX-7s
- Fully built WRXs, Mustangs, Corvettes, TRXs, and lifted Broncos
If it’s ever worn a badge, chances are someone drove it to 111 Motorclub on April 12th.
The Club Comes Alive
Guests had the chance to tour the club’s brand-new facility for the first time. Inside, they got a glimpse at what’s to come—everything from climate-controlled auto storage and detailing bays to luxury lounges, private offices, and curated dealership access.
The vibe was unmistakable: refined but raw, where car passion meets high design.
Food, Music & Family Vibes
It wasn’t all about the horsepower. Local food trucks served up everything from breakfast tacos and fresh coffee to smashburgers and fresh donuts. Live DJs kept the mood elevated, and multiple areas around the facility gave families space to relax and enjoy the show.
There were vendor booths showcasing the latest in tuning, detailing, wheels, wraps, and performance parts, while photographers and content creators captured every corner of the experience.
