Big sur
Drove the F-Type down the peerless California Highway 1 to Big Sur this weekend.
The prowling cat handled beautifully around the winding coastline roads, and it was really something to hear it growling and leaping around the bends.
The stratus grey was pretty dirty from the dusty coast, but I did take some shots. Enjoy.

Those are stunning photos,I wish I knew you were headed this way,would have loved to meet you and buy you a drink...or two.
Car looks lovely and I'm glad you were able to enjoy it here,hope the traffic was such that you were able to wring her out just a bit!
How's the 340hp model feel when you get on it on the open road...?

Those wheels look great on that car...and call me crazy but I just love how the larger twin V/6 exhaust look versus the smaller quad V/8 pipes...is it just me or what...?

I really enjoyed watching your gopro track vids: hope you post some more from the next track day although now that you've set the bar at passing Ferraris, expectations are correspondingly high!
Buick...be careful what you wish for. I'll holler next time I pass Monterey but I'm gonna want to see your classic collection! The car was sublime around HWY 1. I have to say that the F-Type premium seats are really great: the bolstering provides excellent support for cornering, and were actually more comfortable for touring than the premium seats in my BMW 5-series!
PD....sorry I didn't take any side profile pics but I think you should stick with the 20's on your R: I picked the 19's because I didn't want to drive 20's on sh*tty San Francisco streets.

I'm getting the S not R. Still think I should go with the 20s?

20s bring out the more ultramodern track-car look of the design (IMO).

schraderade,
Certainly PM me the next time you're in the area but I consigned my '69 Z/28 at the Mecum Monterey auction 8/14 so hopefully it'll be gone soon and that's the last one in my collection,except the '28 Roadster and the funny car which are both currently at home...would love to meet you as well and check out your car over lunch/drinks.
shift,
If you guys come down in the fall,I would love to hook up with you and cruise the cars to Big Sur or PB,we'd look good with a brace or three F-Type coupes cruising around!
