Spotted a silver C32 heading East on Scripps Ranch Drive @ ~7pm tonight. I pulled up to you on your left, but you were taking a right, probably heading home. Too bad, would've been fun to play... License plate read AMG4___ (last 3 left off).

Car looked *****in, BTW!

STeve, did I see you turning left onto Spring Canyon Road last week? You punched it and took off after you made the turn.

Spotted an 03+ white E55 last night at the SD airport. Looked like the driver was going to pick someone up.. Nice ride with Brabus VI's, they looked polished. Nice ride for sure! Also saw a black SL55 in the parking lot..

That's all for now..

Sorry for the VERY late response, Ling. No, that was probably not me. Would have been very rare for me to be turning there. I have spotted another Black C55 a couple of times down around the new Vons off Scripps Poway Parkway. It's possible you saw that one.

Funy though, you've spotted me twice in the past (once my wife), and I've yet to see you! You must drive too damn fast!

Someone else I know spotted a black C55 at Vons too. They told me and I assumed it was you.

Me drive fast? Naaaah...I only got home from the Corona meet in under an hour.

While not a C32 or C55, while in Mesquite NV last week on a golf vacation, I spotted a black CLS55 with a small rear spoiler, parked in front of the Casa Blanca Resport & Spa where we were staying. Awsome car, and the driver was pretty awsome too!!! A classy looking tall blonde in her 40's came out while we were admiring the 19" HRE wheels. I want one!!!!

I spotted a silver CLK430 with an AMG badge tonight.. It looked like it had used car dealer tempory plates. I was following down Camino Del Rio North and pulled up along side on Camino Del Rio South. I gave it a little gas for a laugh.. Slowed down to 30 and the car kept slowing down and wouldn't pass me.. maybe it was some old lady .. I thought it was pretty funny
