So yes, you name it, and it was there this morning including 1 (one) 968 <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/tongue.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
I took my younger brother there for the first time and he was quite impressed. Merciallagos (sp?) and other Lambos, a Carrera Gt (the guy that likes to cruise by 50 times then park as we know him), a full original 906 (Carrera 6) race car that would hit me in the ankles if I got too close, a Bentley that looked like a tank, several Ferraris (if you want to stand out in S.CA, don't get a Ferrari), a lot of American muscle this time around, and an endless supply of other exotics.
On my way down MacArthur Blvd, a (66-69?) Corvette and I raced from a dig. We both jumped off the line on green, and raced to ~130-140 with me leading by only 1 car length (and kept it the whole time) when we shut down because PCH was approaching fast. So what did he have? At the "show", I checked him out and he was running a 327 that supposedly makes 375hp. We had to stop so fast, his brakes were smoking BAD at PCH.
Edit: It must have been a '64-'65 Vette to have the 327FI 375hp at just a little over 3100#s
It was a fun trip and am always impressed with what shows up.
