Cars and coffee

Cars and Coffee is a name of a weekly gathering of car owners and their cars in southern California. These outdoor events don’t have an entrance fee as the gathering is comprised of car enthusiasts who meet to socialize and enjoy their enthusiasm with other car owners and "car enthusiasts".

It's not known if there is a regularly accepted, generlized term for these informal "car rallies" or "car enthusiast" events. Some meeting events have themes, such as exotic cars, classic cars, hot rods, etc.
