EVOLVING WORLD
Coffee Shop & Coffee Cup Collectible
Horizon Cars & Coffee brings you the best place to ingest your mandatory dose of much needed daily caffeine in the Coffee Shop Location. This new spot is piping hot with locations to take pictures of your cars and even entire convoys!
The Coffee Shop is riddled with the same murals you can see in different areas of the Mexico map, and some new artwork on its walls. Furthermore, you can use the drive-through area for cool photo opportunities.
Look at the inside of the Coffee Shop and you’ll find a nice photo studio when you need a picture of your favorite rides with a clean white background. Special lights will also turn on at this section of the Shop at night for a unique illumination on your pictures.
All around the Coffee Shop you will see platforms designed to fit multiple cars; these are amazing for group shots to immortalize your convoys. In total, there are three platforms surrounding the Shop; one features another iconic mural seen across Mexico, while the other two use nature as their backdrop.
Drone Show
The Coffee Shop Location will also be the host of a completely new drone show in this series! Visit the new Evolving World Location at night and watch the flying drones make the shapes of a coffee cup, a car wheel, and this series’ logo. The drone show plus the spotlights that appear at night near the Coffee Shop will also provide unique photo opportunities for you and your convoy.
