Santana Row Exotic Car Meet

Anyone want to go check out the weekly Santana Row exotic car meet? I'll be there on Saturday at around 8 AM. I'm meeting a few buddies right off Mowry and 880 in Fremont at 7:30 if anyone wants to caravan with us. We're meeting at the Starbucks there at the Albertsons plaza on the East side of Mowry.

Great picks Jim. I think the Blondini in front of the fly yellow Modena is definately one for the Pirelli calander.

That was a woman in a MB E320,on her cell phone! She then tried to take off without stopping. A bunch of people blocked her path and one guy dove into her right side window and pulled the keys from the ignition. He also grabbed her purse. She took off on foot and a couple guys followed her while the police were called. She was found hiding out in one of the restrooms. Turns out her "drivers license" was just a Cal. ID card. She also refused a Breathalyzer test. She appeared and sounded like she was under the influence of something. I had to leave so I never found out the rest of the story.

It's funny. The guy who owned the Lamborghini didn't seem too upset about it. I guess if you can afford the car........

Yeah! Thanks! I think she was an owner and not just a passanger. I'll try to find out next Saturday.

Were you in the classic Mini? I didn't see any other Minis out there besides our three new Minis that were parked together.

I'm heading down there early in my "classic", grabbing some good breakfast, and then heading to Woodside for the MOASF run by 9:15. You guys are welcome to join me.

Awesome cars! And a friendly bunch of owners too.
The Lime Green Lambo was my fav... EVERYTHING had green: stitching on the leather, carpeting, calipers... it was way COOL!

The fluid stain on the ground next to that green Lambo looks like a shadow from a Transformer or some kind of robot lol.. I had to look twice to see what it was

Maybe I should have Photoshopped it out. Looks like something oozing out from under the car!

me too... Are you guys going to start bringing the MINIs to the show then? We're just as unique as the exotics...

I'm really going to have to stop by there sometime soon. It's a little far out of the way, but that Enzo would make it worth it!!!!!
