Leno’s Rendezvous: Car Guy Extraordinaire Drives Mercedes SLS AMG Through LA
By Gunnar Heinrich | Youtube
JAY Leno is really making his mark.
Whether he’s unveiling a Jaguar, writing a foreward for a gear head text, or dropping by Top Gear- he’s everywhere.
Which makes it unsurprising that the former NBC Late Night and car collector extraordinaire has just finished a video that pays homage to the Lelouch classic thriller C’etait un Rendezvous.
Piloting the new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG – courtesy MBUSA- through Mulholland Drive’s twists, Mr. Leno suggests slyly that every city has a hidden race track in its road network and that traffic clogged LA is no exception.
There’s no music to this piece. Just Mr. Leno and the SLS’ soundtrack, which barks and crackles with each dual clutched turn of gear.
A simple video; simply well done.
Many thanks, John!
