On Sunday we attended a private screening of the new movie “Winning” about actor/driver Paul Newman. The venue for this event was held at Apple’s headquarters in Cupertino, CA. Our crew of eight cars met at the shop but before we departed a friend offered us a ride in a new Tesla Model S “P85D”. This is the one with two electric motors, 690hp and the fabled “insane mode”.

The Tesla lived up to its hype. With 4 adults on board Rob launched the car and our heads abruptly hit their headrests. We couldn’t resist weighing this marvel and it tipped the scales at 4,920lbs. With that experience checked off the bucket list, we proceeded to Apple:

When we arrived the parking lot scene was surprisingly like a Cars & Coffee meet with high-dollar/exotic machinery everywhere, like this $1.6 million Mclaren P1:

An entire section was taped off just for our Nissans/Datsuns! It was great to see enthusiasts appreciating the mix of cars, both vintage and modern. Here a few Datsuns that caught my eye, starting with Dave Stone’s 610 on Watanabe wheels:

This Datsun 240z (S30) also sported Watanabe wheels and a striking red interior. Loved the fender mirrors too!

Before watching the movie we admired some amazing cars from all marques. There was a large turnout of Ferrari’s, more new than classic like the 458, FF and F12:

This Dino and familiar Lusso of course will always be the pinnacle of Ferrari’s design:

I really dig the interior on the new Mercedes Benz AMG GT S:

Cool muscle cars too like these Mopars and Shelby GT350:

We enjoyed the movie and it gave us Datsun geeks a chance to shine as Paul Newman piloted everything from 510s to 900hp Nissans on famous road racing tracks throughout his career. “Winning” is a must see documentary for every automotive enthusiast. You can catch it in theaters May 22 and on demand through iTunes. Cheers to Adam Carolla! Please check the picture gallery for even more wonderful cars from the Apple parking lot.
