Crystal Cove Pics - 8/13/05

What a great show! Always great to see all you guys and I met a few more F-Chatters. Thanks for the Pics!

 

man, i picked a crappy day to miss. what a lineup! i'll be back up in another couple of weeks, and hope the turnout is as good, but i doubt it!

 

Armen, I was driving down Newport Coast toward PCH when you were crossing Newport Coast. It's a good thing we weren't on PCH at the same time!!!

nice avatar rick

 

Bingo!

Also, cost for a coupe new is $600k - $800k for the spyder.

 

I'm speechless after today. I dont want to rub it in for the people who missed, because I know the feeling, but there are just no words for what went on this morning.

Anyone see that 911 almost hit everyone standing on PCH and then nearly swerve into oncoming traffic? Man, good thing no one was hurt.

Anyway, just... wow. My only regret is that my camera only holds 102 pics. There are so many pictures I wanted to take and just didnt have the chance. Sometimes you have to forget about the pictures and just enjoy seeing these marvels with your bare eyes, appreciate the moment, because so many people will never see what we are priveleged enough to see.

 

this thread ruined my day as well

That is ****ing insane! Anyone get videos of anything???!?!

 

What's the story with the Cizeta? Are they still being produced today? If so, are they being built in the USA or in Italy somewhere? How many in total have been made?

One of the first car mags I ever bought had the Cizeta on the cover. For a while, I had a poster of it on my wall. Of course that was 1990.

hey zoomy3 feel free to post your pictures! the more pictures on this thread the better, that goes for anyone else out there who snapped away at the cove today!

 

Those 13 mo. would have went to waste!

 

ahhh..... thanks, the cars looking fantastic, did it get the deserved attention or did the mclaren hog the limelight?

 

What a trash talker I am!!!!! I'm kidding around! That would have been fun!!! (Trouble)...

 

That 911 that lost it scared me. Today is the first time I've walked down there and it was right before he lost control.

IF any car was on the other side of PCH going south, he would've hit it straight on...

That would've questioned CC...

 

You can buy my book when it's ready early next year

Yes - part Italy, part USA. 10 total.

Alan, the Cizeta got a ton of attention, especially whenever the engine was started. But the Mclaren F1 was the most popular of the show IMO today. It was funny, the day Enzo's were "common" cars at CC with 3 showing up! Armen was the only one with an F430 though!

 

Thanks for the info. I look forward to the book - first I have heard of it.

i have no idea that the Mclaren F1 is now worth 1.5 million. But it all makes sense since it is still a super hero among supercars. The issue of the Enzo only made the McLaren F1 worth more....wow.

 

Just think, they had to spend all that money just to beat up on the poor little F40 at LeMans!!

 

FOFLMAO!!!!


Good thing I had a passenger!!!

 

thats it!!!!! i usally look at these CC threads every week(though i've missed the past couple weeks) and i've decided: im moving to soCal one day. you guys have too much fun, jeez except for an f50 and aston martins it seems like everything else showed up. damn it must be great to have a weekly meeting of exotic cars

 

You the man, Dan. I never did get that 8 track shot.

I'll have another 200 pics up shortly. I am still hyperventilating about today's turnout. Best show ever.

Although, and I know how spoiled I'll sound, where was the F50, 288 GTO, the SLR, the Vectors, the XJ220, the 959, the Zonda, the Testa Rossa, the S7 tt, the Callaway C12, the...the...I'll just shut up now.

Big thanks to everybody who turned out today. Your generosity in sharing these exquisite machines is truly appreciated.

 

I nominate this thread as thread of the year!

 

I cannot believe that I missed today. I vow never to miss again unless I have a very good reason. (Note to self)

Golly!

 

Yeah, it was only until after did I realize I was witnessing the moment.

I don't think many places have the resources we do, its unreal...

Not to try and change subject, but I think the 11-99 drive will be another big day. There is possible 3 enzos, a McLaren, 2 CGT's planning or thinking about going...

Not to mention out of the 150 spots, 80+ are filled...

 

Closer inspection.
