Default Wow! Guess what I saw tonight.

First time and probably my last time ever seeing this car. The pic was taken at a Chevron in Irvine. I was right next to the car too. Crazy. Gotta love how that car sounds. Enjoy everyone!

Wow! Amazing. Irvine does have a lot of rich people and so does Beverly Hills, Palos Verdes, Carmel Valley and so on...

I saw a Telsa on my way to work a couple weeks back also. 710 south near the 5. Black.

But back on topic... Good for you...I don't think i'll ever see one unless I go to cars and coffee, or hang out in the rich areas...lol
