San Jose to LA in the S65
I just made the trip for like the 6th time since I've had the car. I-5 is America's Autobahn and this drive is such a blast. When passing you get to execute that 65-100 sprint that feels like the jump to lightspeed. I swear I see stars stream by but my wife says it's just the whiplash.
So superior to flying Southwest.

So true
65 tq in mid-range accel is utterly addictive...no car in world is as effortless, safe, comfortable...and fast
My ADD prevents me from doing the I-5, so I tend to enjoy the other autobahn on the Peninsula for best "exercising" the 65

Truly sounds like a blast, I bet the trip tends to go by a little fast, though, haha 
S65 might be one of the best cruisers there is. Someday....
