Autoexotica

Downtown Reno

June 9, 2007

On Saturday June 9th, 2007 some members of The Reno Jaguar Club attended an event in downtown Reno called Autoexotica.  It was a collection of some awesome autos including Ferrari, Porsche, Corvette, Lamborghini, Ford Mustang Saleens, and last but not least JAGUAR!  The day was great with light winds and lots of sun.  We had a prime location right in front of The Eldorado Hotel and Casino and with S. Virginia Street blocked off for the event we had great foot traffic.  One member, Alex Evans, was walking the lineup and noticed that most of the onlookers seemed to linger quite a bit longer at the Jaguar stable. It was a great way to showcase our club and the beautiful autos we own and DRIVE!  Members attending and their cars; Rex and Dixie Black and their 1973 XJ12 complete with Chevy 350 motor exquisitely done by Rex himself, Alex Evans with his 2004 XKR Supercharged Convertible, Mayor Sam and his 1957 XK140 was also a huge hit.  Kathy Glass overheard one gentleman say "you will never see one of those again!", Don Johnson and his British Racing Green 1970 XKE OTS was another crowd pleaser.  Don was great and even gave a young woman a ride around the block.  New member, Don "Snoshu", Thompson was in his 1986 XJSC V-12.  Mike and Kathy Glass were in their pristine 1996 XJ6 Vanden Plas.  Randy Wright was debonair in his 1997 Aston Martin DB7 Volante.  We all had a great time and the crowd was very appreciative of the Club.  We even handed out many fliers for our upcoming event.  We also spoke with several folks that own Jaguars and had not heard of the club, but promised to attend our show and possibly join our great group!
