Good place for taking pics in the South Bay Area

Like the title says, I'm looking for a good place to take pics of my car before I put it back in storage. Must be in the South Bay, any suggestions are welcome. Last year I went to Mount Hamilton and got some decent shots, but I'm looking for something different this year.

Thanks
-Jason

Elysian Park, above LAPD camp. Nice view of Dodger Stadium and Downtown LA.

I guess Dodgers are doing so good...there is no traffic in my hood

Mount Hammie is beautiful. Be careful of the Rangers though.


Do you ever take your car up into the mountains? A few friends and I have a little touge club around Saratoga/Los Gatos and we meet about 1-2 times a week. If you ever wanna go for a drive(no racing, just friends driving in the mountains ), lemme know.
We're planning on meeting on monday evening. There's PLENTY of picturesque places to take a pic up around hwy9.

I rarely head up in the hills in my 7, but me and my friend with a Z decided to last summer. Even with my R1 lip off and stock suspension (for the most part) I still bottomed out on a few parts. Because of this I normally avoid mountiain driving.

Emeryville is a little too far. Plus the thought of driving my 7 in Oakland isn't very appealing.

Thanks to everyone else for the recommendations.

I've been thinking about it lately. It may be time for me to move on to something more practical. We'll see...
