As some might know, I'm having work done on my house so we are staying in a hotel right down the street. I woke up this morning, opened our curtains to find these 4 cars with covers on them right below. At first I didn't think much, due to it actually raining overnight, but the more I thought about it throughout the morning, the more I was intrigued to know.
We I finally made it downstairs, to take the kiddos to school, I walked over to try and take a peak. Nothing could be identified other than they all 4 have Georgia License Plates with "Distributor" on them, at the bottom. I lifted the cover, above a tire or two to try and get a decal, but they were just blacked out rims with no logo at all. Went up to the front, lifted the cover at the nose but again, no logos. Only other information on them was a tag on the cover, driver side window, that had a ticket inside. That had tracking information and "LAX" on it. This led me to believe they were shipped in to Los Angeles.
I left, dropped the kids off, and came back from breakfast. Went into the lobby and there's about 12 guys, all with laptops and glasses, speaking foreign language (German) the entire time. Finally, I left and went back outside to notice one car has it's cover pulled off. I quickly snapped the photo below, incognito style, and then walked closer to look. If you zoom in on the photo you will see details I describe.
There was black tape all over the vehicle covering any kind of information to identify. The break lights are fake red stickers with black tape. There's bolts drilled into the hatchback. The windows are taped over with a screen print to camouflage. Then out of no where one of the guys gets out of the driver's side. Scared the piss out of me and of course I'm snooping around. He briefly talks to me while opening up the hatchback. There's all kind of computer equipment in the back with wires going all over the interior of the car. The door panels are completely covered with heavy black felt clothes. This car looked like a spaceship inside.
I asked his what they were and he smiled and said he couldn't say. I asked if it was classified and he didn't know what that word meant. I said, "classified" and he looked at me confused. I said, "secret" and he nodded and said, "oh yeah". I asked if it was a Porsche and he said he didn't know. If I had to guess it kinda looked like a Cayenne. He opened the passenger door and I got a glimpse in there. Tons of wires everywhere with black felt tarps all over. Then he covered the car back up.
I asked what he was doing here and he stated that they had driven up from Vegas and are headed over to San Francisco.
Any speculations from you car guys? @'78
