I think that they heard that the Donuts where reduced.

Actually, seriously, they had found some video on YouTube of a clown in a BMW and came down to make sure that the fools where not foolish....

Thanks !

I am completely immune to being wowed by almost any newer 'supercar' nowadays.

The older and more obscure ones are the ones that really interest me

Looks like it was a good day for me to miss, I am sure the local authorities might have something to say about my exhaust .

Had to rest today to be ready for the big MOLA (Mini Owners of Los Angeles) run early tomorrow morning. Postponement of their annual Thanksgiving run. The fires were to close to the run area around Malibu & Topanga Canyon at the time. Looks like Sunday will be a nice day.

I'd KILL to have that kinda show near me locally.

There was even an Atom there. Not that I do not LOVE the old restored numbers, but those are quite rare.

NICE

As for the Atom, after visiting the US factory in Ashland, OR and riding in one, they don't seem that special. Seriously, I'm still crunching the numbers so that one day I can buy one!

I chose the Cobra over the Atom as I have a boot and roof option (when the fabric one is completed) as well as classic appeal. Not to mention the 3 month build schedule to get one.

I still say one day I will own one.

Well, if you check the gallery you might just fined one - remember this is, as always, just a selection

Of course it is - I called everyone and told them it was safe to come as you would be absent...

When are you next down here ?

That orange Porsche with the V8 must be a beast in corners.

The kid looking at the Buick grill is a great shot.

Wish you had a front view of the Siata V8.

Always difficult to pick a favorite.

Oh yea, did you get a chance to talk to any of the NSX owners about Nick?

Yeah that is amazing! I love the Cudas also.

But man, that V-8 Porsche is just heresy.

Thanks for the pics Max!

CooperSS, you shouldn't have to worry about your exhaust with those cars.. Didja notice this one, don't see a muffler on there?!
