Spotted a white C55 coming out of the Ikea shopping center in San Diego today. The car was totally stock as far as I could tell and driven by an older lady. Was that you Ling?

Not in SoCal but, I was in Fairfax, VA this week on business and saw a Silver C32 around 5:30 on Wed. the 26th making a right off Hwy 50 near the Lowes. Only distiguishing feature that I could see was a grill badge of some sort. He was moving too fast to tell what it was.

I spotted a black C32 on Thursday going north on the 805 by the La Jolla Village exit. It had a black cl style grill and actually looked a lot like my car.. 
I also saw a silver C32 getting on the 805 south at La Jolla Village Dr. on Friday around 4:30.. I tried to get a closer look but with traffic I was too far ahead..

Wow, everyone seems to be in the Orange Co and San Diego Co. areas.
Well, on Friday Jan 2, I spotted a new (black paper plates - blk in color) black C55 on the 101 Freeway northbound in the Thousand Oaks, Ventura County area. Blonde female driver with a child in the backseat.
I don't own a "C" (06 ML350 owner) but I love the way the C's , C55's C32's look so much, I see them everywhere now! I envy you guys!

a C32 AMG & S-Works Tarmac
Oh Man........... I thought C-AMG's were supposed to be common around So. Cal. There is a C55 at my office that belongs to one of my co-workers. There is the other silver C32 with chromies at my son's baseball field, every time I'm down there, so on and so on.
Let's face it. If it is considered exotic or expensive, you will find it in abundence in So. Cal. I went to dinner in Newport Beach the other night. The resturant parking lot was filled with several Ferraris, 5 Lamborghinis, serveral AMG's of various classes and more. Today, my 11 year old spotted a 2007 Porsche GT3 down the street. Cool.

Up here in Valencia, I spotted a silver C32 just two blocks from my house.
I drive a silver C55. We were both side by side at a traffic light.
A very cute blond mom was driving. We exchanged greetings, haven't seen her since.
