Enzo, Carrera GT, Ariel, Lambo, etc.

This morning my son, daughter, and I went to check out Crystal Cove in Newport Beach and we amazed at the hardware! There were some of the world's best supercars all in one parking lot.

Pretty ballsy to park that thing at the curb!


Was there a car show going on or was this just the typical Newport beach affair?

I was thinking the same thing. Doesn't it cost like a half mil?

It's been a long time since I saw an enzo that wasn't crashed

Parking it at the curb near crystal cove is not really that big of a deal, it's almost common. It's almost like an alternative version of reality down there. There is a great deal of discretionary income in south OC and the price tag for one of those is more like $1 mill.
I saw a carrera GT parked in front of an Albertson's supermarket last week. Prolly a daily driver.

I think this type of get together is something that they do every Saturday at about 7:00 am. While driving to the Promenade, we saw the Enzo parked on the street. It stopped us in our tracks! The owner had just left the get together and was down the street at Starbucks. To see that Enzo in person was breathtaking!

They are Ariel Atoms. It is a British made car either powered by a Honda engine in England or a GM Eco engine in the US. It has 300hp with a supercharger. Top Gear did a show on the car. It is an incredible car.

The red one was an electric powered one that beat the CGT in a race. The maroon one was the 300hp one.
