Sighting: Mercedes/Honda Hybrid

Driving home from work yesterday in my E350 and I think I see a Mercedes Coupe with a spoiler kit. We go by it and then my friend shouts... IT'S A HONDA! I quickly slow down to let it pass....

My friend gets out his digital camera (carries one around for some reason) and snaps a few photos... too funny... to each his own.

I bet he carries around a camera in case he sees things like that. I carry around a camera too in case I see something worth taking.

I like his License plate location. Which explains why his exhaust comes out the side panels.

We saw him again last night. It sounds like a weed whacker.. hahaha

When we passed to turn left... he caught us looking... He gave us a BIG WEST SIDE... I was cracking up. Apparently he believes it IS a Benz...

I can imagine, i'm assuming he's just a kid thinks like his car is worth $$$... I'm sure later he'll realize how much of an *** he's making himself look.
