73 rs on cars and coffee

[Steve Carlton]

Really?! I saw the '73 RS shot extensively from the outside and listened to Jerry talk about it to some detail. Certainly there was banter between Jerry and Seth that had nothing to do with the car. What am I missing?

I thought that was a good episode ... interesting to hear some of Seth's background.

Hard to believe he parked that car on the street like that but it is great to see him enjoy it so much.

Agree about looking forward to the next one with C Rock !

All of Seinfeld's personal cars shown still have CA plates (the Beetle in the ep with Larry David, for instance). I guess he maintains a residence there and still registers them in California. It's definitely his personal RS (all his cars are listed as "courtesy of Columbus 81 Productions). I don't know if he's still got the orange one shown in the marble rye bread ep on "Seinfeld."

Gotta be my favorite episode!

Well, he did park it around the corner, but how many people were on the shoot? No one says anything to Seinfeld except the server and his guest. The extras don't look at the cameras. I'll bet it takes 25 people including security to do those episodes.

is it just the US spec cars that had bumperettes?

And man, you see em in the wild like that...they just have such a presence about them. Really makes me want to build a tribute car (given that a real one is beyond prohibitively expensive). I've seen them in the flesh, but only stationary, at concours events. It's like the Halle Berry of cars (on a purely aesthetic basis - seemingly immune to age)
