This first photo was taken by Stephan, who captured me riding in rchen's 1981 Honda Accord.
I parked next to this rare blue Mondial cabriolet.
The van was a diesel Alfa Romeo! This was my favorite vehicle at the meet/rally.
Miata and 914.
164 and IS-F.
Supra.
A Scirocco with Historical Vehicle plates.
Here is a VIP (Peter S.) in front of not-his Gullwing.
The vacuum hose routing diagram for the Accord.
We followed this Jaguar(?) for a while.
The roads of Marin.
This shot captures the diversity of the cars that participated.
Now, back to the beginning. As I approached Sausalito, the starting point, I saw this strange van in front of me.

That Austin-Healey stalled out right at the end of a corner.
This Mustang belongs to Randy of Bring A Trailer fame.

How was the Accord received? Cool car!
@mtc: Very well. Not many Japanese cars there.
I love that Alfa van too, I followed it home just after the start. I think there were more Japanese cars this year than last, but still not too many. Do you think if I stand in front of the Gullwing long enough talking on the phone it will become mine?
I was hoping to see the rear lock mechanism Rchen mentioned.
@Peter: I was trying to think of a smart-ass comment about you talking on the phone in front of the Mercedes. But I got nada.
@Alan: It's a lever next to the e-brake handle. It's breathtaking.
I think I detect sarcasm but not sure.
@Alan: LOL. It was actually quite cool/novel.
Good times. Happy New Year!
@Alan RHD example in video, but the door lock works like this. Like a taxi in Tokyo!
When I met my wife, she drove a maroon 1981 Accord. That was her first Honda. We have since then have had over 7 Hondas in over 23 years together.
What always impressed me about her first car was the level of refinement. This was in stark contrast to my craptastic 1988.5 Ford Escort
