Some may frown, but it is a classic Fiat Barchetta.

Not sure how this made it into the US. Never mind being on correct Cali plates...

I saw it on San Carlos driving home from work...

I had one as a rental car when in Germany back in 97, it was fun and great for the drive to Salzburg up the Alps...Same color as what I saw today.
