Spotted. Steel Gray C350 on Silver Spur Road in Palos Verdes. Looks like another teenage owner. Saw that you noticed my clear side markers when we were at the red light and we exchanged glances. You then floored it off the line shortly after once the light turned green. You sure showed me! :P Sigh...not every kid in a nice car wants to race -__- But yeah. Don't be too shy to speak up now.

You live in PV? Well what do you expect? I'm under the assumption that you were at the light on Silver Spur and Hawthorne? You're right in front of the high school...buncha kids would challange anyone. One of them even had the ***** to show me

Haha. It was at the light right past it by dominos and Jamba Juice. Dude there are some nice cars on that campus. There are like 6 A4s, 1 S4, 1 SLK55, an M3, and a lot of E90s. Someone just got a new black C350 from what I saw.

The year I graduated (graduated from RHP not Penn), class of '02...there were more 3 series than civics. There were more e46 m3s than accords. What do you expect from PV?

I see loads and loads of C300s, E350s, and S550s. But you never see the model of the higher tier for each class. C350s, E550s, S63s, etc seem to be a lot rarer in these parts. Just pointing the "unique" ones out is all. Or the ones that floor it off the line trying to look cool.

There's a black CLS63 in the PASADENA area, like mine. I've spotted him twice on the Pasadena Fwy.

One time, no it wasn't, the other time, I couldn't tell they were too far ahead of me in traffic.
