Yes a 190SL. I'm don't know whether Newsom was driving it or just happened to be walking by it.

I'm pretty sure the governor is driven around in one of those small buildings called Chevrolet Tahoe or similar.

 ;D ;D I remember when GM and Ford went to battle for who had the larger SUV - Tahoe-Yukon-Suburban-Navigator-Expedition-Excursion et al, somebody posted news that Ford/Lincoln were contemplating a new model called "Townhouse"..... 8)
