On visit to left coast saw two Evo's in one day

Visiting the San Diego area from the 19th to this Thursday the 23rd.

On Sunday I saw a Rally Red heading towards the convention center in the early afternoon and at night I saw a Lightining Yellow parked in La Jolla Cove with a Becker Mitsubishi rear plate.

These must be someone on this forum....

This is why Evo sighting posts drive me nuts - people, the car isn't uncommon to see anymore (esp. in Cali)...

I've only seen about 3-4 EVOs ever on the road (not counting at the track). I think the car is still "fairly" rare...at least where I live.

Man, I miss living in La Jolla. Too expensive. I have only seen 3 Evos since July here in Vegas and this is a city of 1.7 Mil. And I am out a lot here in town.

It depends on where you were staying. I live in Southwest Riverside Country, but drive to Orange County every day. Statistically I'd think I would see a lot of EVO's in OC, but all of them I've seen in Riverside Co.

Ok...

Hey I have a 12pm flight from Irvine tomorrow. I hear the traffic can be bumper to bumper from Camp Pendleton to Orange County. What time should I leave?

Thanks

If your flight is at noon, you should be fine leaving at 10AM. Barring any accidents it will take you around an hour to get there and give you an hour to get through security. The only time you have to worry about traffic is 8-9am and anytime between 4-6pm.

Ok Vince... When I was in Irvine at the Marriott I didn't see any. Didn't travel too much though. When I did go out on Thursday there were 5 S 500's parked in front of Ruth's Chris.

I saw another Tarmac on the 5 north just now. Fully populated... My rental Buick Century hit the century mark then I exited at La Jolla Parkway. I will not divulge the rental company for fear then they are browsing this forum....

I couldn't believe it was cloudy here as it was very sunny on 5. We have 5:45pm reservations at George's so we could watch the sunset on our last night....bummer...
