I thought the building was nice, but I hadn't been to the museum prior to renovation.
The building used to be a department store, so it has more structural columns on the interior than you would likely see in a new construction museum, but they did a good job working with the limitations. The Vault would be a cool visit, but I couldn't spend more than about an hour and fifteen minutes at the museum total. http://petersen.org/vault/

I thought this was a Lotus until I got close.
It's actually the original Tesla, which is part Lotus...

I see a couple Tesla Roadsters around fairly frequently -- one I see a couple days a week -- going the opposite direction when i'm on my way to work or back home.
Never seen a blue one though...

I saw an m2 on the road today. Probably the first of many.

My turbo PO replacement car, boxster spyder. Crappy cell pic but looked good in person and not huge fan of black rims.

yeah I could of but he didn’t bring his keys down when I met him at his office. I was frustrating with dealing with my registration(other thread) so I didn’t care at the time.
He did say the turbo was faster but looking at the numbers they should be about the same, torque must be confusing him. He likes the top down aspect. |
