Default Blue 350z possibly on display May 27

SoCal people....
Get your camera back to Nissan next monday at lunch time.
The same guy who tipped off the presense of the silver Z at Nissan last week is at it again:

"The pet cemetery is a nice place to watch the passing parade.
Victoria was crossed with Figueroa to the northeast.
Pack a lunch and wait, I am sure you will be rewarded.
You may want to wait a week, for the blue you seek."

(Note: Victoria and Figeuroa is the corner just NE of the Nissan building).

Hmm, the plot thickens. What do you make of this addition to the riddle Sca?

"No guarantees on blue mondays.
The work week is 5 days and nights long.
The powers may hide the goods.
189 is fine.
Griffith may be greater.
Luck be with you."

Im guessing the first two lines imply he's talking about Friday and not Monday? But friday is only 5 days and 4 nights away, so maybe he means saturday. The first line definitely makes me think that monday is not the day.
Line 3 makes me think that whatever appearance he's referring to may still need approval from someone.
No idea about 189 and Griffith, are those streets nearby?

Sounds to me that the first line just means that the car on Monday may not be blue. 189 and Griffith is just north of the area near to the Goodyear blimp tie down next to the 110 and 405 freeway interscetion. They may be setting up for some advertising shots.
I would also guess that the reference to 5 days means that they won't be taking monday off.

I think we've got the location fairly narrowed down. As for the day, I think you guys are correct in that it isn't Monday. His clarification post was to make sure we didn't show on Monday, but I still don't know if it is Friday or Saturday.

"The powers may hide the goods" could mean that even if we are preszent, we may not be able to see the cars (closed transport trucks)?

The thing last Friday was an actual mini-car show. I think this parade may be something different...maybe not something for the public at all. Maybe it's just the day that a few of the cars are arriving from the port.

Not sure yet.

I think the key is to check the shipping schedules, i.e. "maritime". Sounds like the subject cars will be arriving by boat and transported to Nissan (possibled covered).

Your guess is as good as mine on the day. I sure would like to see a brickyard Z.

Well, unfortunately there's no way I can make it friday, but if nothing is spotted then I will definitely head up there monday with camera in hand...

Default Scooby Doo

I really don't get this Scooby Doo mystery hint bs that RxO is feeding us.



Yes, it's exciting, but I have to wonder if this person is actually at risk of punishment (firing, scolding, lawsuit?) by Nissan for telling us what he/she knows. Or is it just a game to his/her sick, twisted mind, toying with us like insects in a jar? Bizarre.

Not to worry everyone. Scafremon and I are hard on the case, and I think we have figured out which ship the cars are coming in on.

Will keep you posted. We're deep under cover right now in hostile territory.

(dang, my member number is almost 007...)

You guys and gals are good! Do I even want to know how you figured out what ship they are coming in on? Or would you have to shoot me. Here in Indiana, we don't have things like ships - just corn, beans, and more corn.
