Nice Morgan! I saw it and had no idea. I scrambled to get my camera out before he got through the intersection.

I would have had a nice ass shot but that stupid 7-series sped up and got in my way

I saw this parked on a neighborhood street a few miles from my house...stumbled upon it totally by accident.

It's a London City Bus from the UK, complete with right hand drive. The owner must use it every now and again because it has Oregon commercial plates and the tags are up to date. He kept the original UK number plates, too.

Haha I bet so. If I could afford a Phantom, I'm sure I could afford a few other cars that are on my list

Just after getting out of the drivers seat, I saw this:



The funny part is the plate. It's a "wa" plate, so it's a rental. Here's the rest of it, with a surprised driver (someone famous here, or rich) and the top going down:

You would think, but no. Some cars here are LHD. Some Audi's and Mercedes are like that. Also GM trucks (Hummer, etc...) and Cadillac.

The expressways here even have a machine on both sides to take the ticket, but you'll lean through to pay at the exit.

Hey, I just saw a new, dark blue AM DB-9 a couple of hours ago-- in the Marina del Rey Home Depot parking lot!
I love the variety of cars in LA.

Yikes. I guess I could have a mod change the title, but what would it change to, "The Pictures From the Drivers Seat (Not the WTF Car of the Day) thread?

Bringing the thread back with a little Cobra action. Not sure if it was an authentic Cobra or one of the many replica versions, but it's still a hot car. FML for such a dirty windshield.

^Damn. The last time I saw one was about 8 years ago when I was in San Francisco on vacation. My parents were eating outside at some restaurant and a dark green one went by in first gear going about 25. Sounded amazing.

And SuperTrooper that Cobra is gorgeous! There is one around here that's blue with the white stripe. I can't tell if it's a authentic one or one of those kit cars though.
