Never saw that many RL's in one place before...

Never saw that many RL's in one place before...
Yesterday, at about 7:45 PM, at a traffic light (OK, THE traffic light) in downtown Marlton, NJ, there were three, count 'em, THREE new RL's.
Mine ('06 Lakeshore/black), another Lakeshore (I think taupe inside) and a Carbon Gray Perl with the A-Spec lip and skirts (didn't notice the wheels).
The CBP car and I continued down the same road for a mile or so after the light, the other Lakeshore turned off.
It was... a gathering! A...CONFLUENCE! Yeah!
Anyway, was that any of you guys?

I take my boys to school in the morning. About two miles from home on the way to work. One day last week, I passed three RLs on the way. Silver, white, black. Mine made four. Not all at the same intersection, but close.

I grew up in Marlton, NJ and my parents still live there so you might see me once in a while in my '06 Lakeshore Silver Metallic. I graduated from Cherokee High School in 1986. How about you?

Just moved house. Been driving on the I78 in NJ for the daily commute recently. Usually see one other RL every other day - either a white, carbon grey or lakeshore silver. I'm an OBP/Ebony but I haven't seen another OBP on the road yet. Saw an OBP/Taupe in Hills Village parking lot by Bedminster though.

I swear, NJ seems like the Acura capital of the US. I even see a lot of RLs around. I seem to spot them mostly around the Princeton area.

If I am lucky, I see 2 or 3 a week.
So far I have not seen another of the same color as mine. I usually see black, silver or carbon grey.
Sis recently aquired a RRP, which I expect will be more rare the the OBP.

I saw an RL yesterday at Costco (Meteor Silver--actually light blue) and the day before on the 101 freeway (NBP). For many days before that I saw none. They are rare birds in SoCal, while TLs are very common. Current generation MDXs are likewise few and far between. Infinitis are out there but not that common--maybe see 3-4 Gs and 1-2 Ms per day in 65 miles of roundtrip driving.
Benzes, Beemers, Audis, Lexi and other status symbols seem to dominate our local ecosystem. BTW the drivers of those pricey rigs never seem to have Bluetooth. They are all holding cellphones to their heads constantly. Soon to be illegal!!
And let us not forget the most common of all: immense pickups and SUVs that are driven as if they were sports cars. Guess that's why the radio traffic report seems to have at least one rollover crash active at all times.

It so true about the bluetooth. So many people in BMW's and Mercedes holding the phone to their ear. I guess they are still stuck in the 90's by showing everybody they have a cell phone and also have a BMW/Mercedes.
Anything to get a look...very lame.

I see RL's every day -- just never saw them all lined up at the same stoplight before like that.
I'm in Mt. Laurel, and I went to high school at Moorestown Friends, graduated same year as you. Howdy, neighbor!
And as for the cellphones, around here, it's not just the Benzes and Lexus and Bimmers and Audis, but bloody everyone. I'd estimate that fully 80% of the vehicles on the road around here are either minivans or SUV's, and it seems like every single one of them is driven by a distracted mom on a cellphone. And this state has a cellphone law...
