Car lovers braved the summer heat Saturday morning for the monthly Coffee and Cars Augusta show at the Augusta-Richmond County Judicial Center parking lot Aug. 5.

“Coffee and Cars Augusta is an informal group of automotive enthusiasts that gathers in a central location of the C.S.R.A.. Gearheads come to show off their rides and talk to others about their rides. Although clubs are invited to bring their group out, you don’t have to be in a club to participate nor do you have to have a show car or exotic to show up,” according to the group’s website.
