**SoCal Sightings**

I've seen this on other forums and thought it'd be a cool way to spot other members.

Jamboree near Newport this afternoon circa 5:30pm. Spotted a black E55.

Oh yea?? It looked pretty much immaculate. That's the second SL65 I've ran into around here. The first was up by the Carmel Mountain area on the 15 north. It was black with dealer plates still on... And that dude had no problem running it!!

It was a 65. I've only seen two actually on the road driving.

BTW if anyone was on the 52 west headed at the 805 junction they would have seen me pulled over... Got a speeding ticket about an hour ago.

this post is so bmw. LoL jk Kady.

I saw a black c63 on the 5 south before jamboree that stomped on it when he seen me. I went up to him to play. But he took off and started driving like a maniac. So i followed him trying to say No. I don't want to hurt you. I just wanna play! He finally gestured me to go ahead of him. I was like WTH? He was about 40 years old, looked middle eastern possibly. He obviously didn't get it.

Also saw a white E63 maybe with pano on flat black wheels and black emblems last sunday on jamboree and pch. He went straight to balboa island im guessing.

I5, South, yesterday at about 1pm. Black SL65, new bodystyle (09?). Very sweet looking car, tried to catch up but traffic was too thick. I was in the huge 1.5ton white truck but you likely didn't notice since there was also a Viper ACR close by

Were you in a black E55 with two other guys and then floored it when exiting the carpool lane near McArthur?
