Why not hit the roads with the car and visit some of the sightseeing spots overlooking the city, the HOLLYWOOD sign, Santa Monica pier, Malibu, Mulholland, Nike missile base, Getty Museum etc.? Further south you can go to San Pedro Cabrillo Aquarium (free), Long Beach, see the harbor, Battleship Iowa... in LA there is a ton to do as well - you can go to the La Brea tar pits (any interest in prehistoric animals?) and LA county museum of art on the same campus, hit Koreatown and hit a traditional restaurant there... endless options ...

Really, that's the problem. A drive to anywhere is going to be tough unless at the crack of dawn on Sunday. I think I'd do as TRE Cup suggests and then plan on a drive tomorrow, but by noon I would be tired of it all, don't know about Billy. One thing I would surely do on a quick trip to L.A. is to find some high ground and take in the whole basin. You don't even see how big the joint is from a plane because of the restricted view. There are not many 'big picture' views from Mulholland.
Disneyland would be at the end of my list. The beaches and the ocean are what makes SoCal the place it is along with — well — "endless options."
