09-09-06 Santana Row Meet

The Enzo made an appearance today (same owner with a silver Carerra GT). The Enzo owner's gf/wife drove the Gallardo Spyder. Another family brought their three toys: a Testarossa, Esprit, 928S4. I tagged along on their cruise afterwards, but not in a MINI; you can hear the Enzo screaming.

pics here

Here's some of mine from today.

I think yahoo changes the links to make it unlinkable; it'd work for a short time but then not. I've edited my original post, just click on the link for all the pics.

From SR, about 13 cars stopped at the gas station around the corner, then on to 17S, to 9, through downtown Saratoga where people walking/biking were like "did you see that Enzo", and finally stopping at 9/35 junction. The motorbikers checked out the cars, people discussing where to go next, but in the end the Enzo/Gallardo Spyder went home back towards Saratoga, other cars went off in different directions and I headed up 35 to Page Mill Rd to 280N to run some errands.

I thought you were gonna follow us in the end, since you didnt leave. I had no clue where we were going, I was just going to follow the leader and keep up.

I ended up going to Woodside to add some 100 octane. Then up to Alices for a bit and down to the coast via Pescadero Rd. Stopped to take some shots then up Hiway 1 to 92 and back over the San Mateo Bridge. Fun drive!

Looks like I missed a good variety again. Thanks for posting the photos of what I missed. Jim, I really like the Dr. Dave gas cap self portrait photo. The Scuderia badge (w/ small aperture for sun burst?) is also quite nice. Are the coastal photos a preview for something here on NAM? Found quite a few Minis in Maui this week, but never one parked at the beach.

Just so you can keep things straight, the driver of the green lambo is a male. Don't know if the car is male or female

Yep, the exotics are typically there every Saturday morning. Jimz68 usually makes an appearance as well. Early birds get there by/before 9am.
