Visiting CA and ....
I'm out in CA for the inactivation ceremony for my first ship ... the USS Albuquerque Ship Submersible Navy 706. Anyway went up north to visit a friend and came across this McLaren dealership by our hotel ...
Took some pics: http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...910/9gagyp.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...910/Dv4OLf.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...908/6bDAEQ.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...908/g1EjmF.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...911/GbGVZZ.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...905/TOaH3p.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...907/Fn4aNV.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...911/BZPnss.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...903/efLHey.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...908/8WwSlc.jpg |
That's the one in Palo Alto.......used to be a Volvo dealership. 5 miles up the road is the Ferrari dealership one of only a few owned directly by Ferrari. Silicon Valley is full of pretentious Asshats, these 2 dealerships confirm that:) if your around Palo Alto downtown and hungry......try Nola's it's one of my favorites.
McLaren sent me an invitation to do a test drive and track experience session......I have better things to spend my $$$$ on that some British built depreciating asset. |
You are correct .... a good friend lives in Palo Alto and this dealership was on the corner. Never seen these cars up close and personal let alone take a couple pics!
|
That orange color is what made me want my car orange. Enjoy your time in Cali.
|
Oh yeah .... my buddy just sent me a pic of one of his Challengers, pretty nice shape!
