I saw the post on Instagram and thought it might be COOP's tii!  Congrats on being selected!  Comedians in Cars is an absolutely brilliant show.  Agree that Baldwin killed it in that episode, but for me, the all-timer was Jerry taking Carl Reiner to breakfast in a Rolls Royce, and then joining Reiner and Mel Brooks for dinner at Carl's house.  Jerry picks up food at Nate n Al in Beverly Hills in his 70 911S.

Great to see the tii getting such pub!

Just to clarify, it was not someone at the "Legends of the Autobahn," it was Eric Ries, BMW CCA Golden Gate Chapter President, who put the word out on a different forum. 

 

They were looking for a "bone-stock" roundie for a video, but were not forthcoming with the details.  It wasn't until later I learned it was for Jerry Seinfeld to drive.  I managed to get a couple of shots of Daniel's car to Eric, who forwarded them to CCC's people.  After putting Daniel in touch with CCC's Producer, I let them hash out the remaining details.

 

As Daniel mentioned, of the numerous candidates offered up, Jerry personally selected his Baikal tii for the show.

Yeah, what she said! Sorry for the misinformation...it's hard to keep track of all Delia's miscellaneous & sundry connections!

I love to watch Jerry.  He cares about the cars and I love the way he blends the car and his guest...is this a car show or talk show...love it.  

 

Your car looks great.

 

For him to pick your car says a lot about the guy who owns it !

 

Congratulations!

I believe that this is in Palos Verdes, looks like Shoreline Park at Abalone Cove to me.

Finally, a Seinfeld show about SOMETHING........!

[jrkoupe]

that is really awesome...congrats...

this will increase even more the hot presence of 02's on the radar.

I love that show.....but I must admit there have been a few episodes I just went fast forward.

Baldwin had me laughing out loud, and Letterman was fun....his story about how P L Newman "arranged" the hot rod volvo wagon purchase was hysterical.

anyhew.....cant wait to see it.

Seinfeld is a serious car collector and a huge Porsche guy. he has one of finest collections of Porsches in the world. He owns 104 cars including some of the earliest 356's, the first 911 imported to the US, a 550 Spyder (the model James Dean died in), a rare 959 and many other extremely valuable original and custom Porsches. Apparently he doesn't own a 2002 though, niener neiner
