Internet Pulls Together 1,200 Cars For Terminally Ill Boy
A little over a week ago, a post appeared on a British Subaru forum: A father had just found out his son was terminally ill with cancer and he wanted to give him one last thrill with a small car show on September 8th.
That small request went viral after we posted it and, instead of a small car meetup, more than 1,000 cars showed up to give him the best day of his life. There were new Ferraris, vintage Lamborghinis, and a lot of Subarus, including cars from the company.
Normally the cars are the stars at shows like these. But this time, it was Connor. "It was the best car show I've ever seen," friend of Jalopnik Alex Roy told us. It wasn't about cars competing with each other, rather "everyone was competing to get Connor in their cars."

In short, 11 year old with weeks to live (who happens to be a total automotive nut), gets his dream day and then some thanks to a bunch of car geeks and the internet.
Cheers car geeks, wish I could have been there!
