Took the ole C230K up some twisty roads today

Went for a drive up the Pacific Coast High way today before I take the car away from California.



Still love the way it sounds and handles on the twisties especially with a renewed front suspension. I'm getting a new steering rack put in next week so I'm sure it will handle even better when the front suspension is fully back up to spec. Might make one more trip out there while the weather is still good.



Enjoy

Great photos. Looks like you mastered the panorama settings.

yes! the trick is to keep a very steady and pan your torso instead of your arms to keep the arrow on the line.

Great looking car, and fun looking road!

I miss twisty roads like this.
