Well **** man! PM me where you live.

Is that pic taken right on the corner of PCH and Dover? I go to Newport Harbor High. Never seen you driving around though. Do you live close to there?



p.s. I have seen that slr driving around. If you go to Laguna on Saturday mornings you can catch people going to and from their car show. That stretch of road right next to the ocean is so rad to watch exotics race! I'm talking lambo, ferraris, 911's, you name it.

Every saturday early AM a bunch of exotic get together in Crystal Cove. You see some NICE *** cars. There is a Carrera GT that goes there regularly and he likes to put up a show when he leaves.

BTW I think the SLR is butt ugly or any other Mercedez. I take the 911 hands down. The SLR may have more hp but it is a pig too.

Only in Socal you see this...theres a SLR at my local dealership which is only 3min away.

Crystal Cove is between Newport and Laguna Beach, people usually show up around 6:30-7am.

Yeah I know--- the Carrera GT is more comparable to the SLR. Don't get me wrong, that 911 Turbo is l33t... but it has nothin on an SLR.

Geez you must live in a rich area! (Orange County or something?)

The high end cars I see where I live here are usually Merc SL classes and 7 series BMWs... rarely see Ferraris or anything.

I wouldn't be surprised if the person driving that SLR is some celeb or CEO.

Is just down the street from (south) Newport Beach entering Laguna Beach. It is along PCH. As soon you are out of Newport Beach, there is a small shopping area. If you go there between 7-8 am you will see them. There is usually a line of cars (when i say cars you will know when you see it... exotics) to get in. This map dicribes better on how to get there since I know there is a Starbucks there.

Oh yeah I been there twice. My first time there, there was a 996 with about 700hp. IT IS A BEAST!!! I think it was the fasttes car there that one day. That day I went there with my brother. The Carrera GT, Diablo and this 996 decided to go and race each other. The CGT won but the 996 was catching up. We made a nice video of them racing.
