Saw a WDP FWD/Tech last week--weird thing is, the driver had earphones in his ear.

I love when I see that! Some idiots in a $100K car and got ear pieces, because they won't buy the bluetooth module, don't have a compatible phone, or simply just don't know how to work shit! LOL

Last Friday I saw a Red Basque AWD with 5 spoke 18" rims in Woodland Hills, very clean. It was an older guy about 58? All white/grey hair. Traffic was at a stop as I pulled up aside him, but he didn't look over. I swear LA is snobby, uptight, don't care or just plain unaware of what they're drivin'!

Last Sunday, I saw 2 TL FWD Tech in the same area at the same time. Now that's rare.

I agree with some of the forum members that the stock 17" on the FWD makes the TL look mediocre. Which is why I upgraded mine to the 18" AWD rims and wheels.

Now my royal blue TL FWD Tech looks as awesome as any AWD TL.

Gotcha! I saw a Palladium Metallic FWD non tech right in front of me today, grey or ebony interior. No love or acknowledgement from another stuffy snot nosed LA driver. I know this guy saw me, in dead stop traffic how can you not look behind you? Anyways...he looked about 40'ish, probably a "suit" type of guy. Dork actually. No tech, no mods? What a blah person, the car looked sweet though? See for yourself!

You're powers of perception are unreal. From behind you could tell he was 40, in a suit, AND a dork...Wow that's impressive! What exactly were you expecting him to do? Jump out of his car and start screaming how awesome your rides are? For all you know he had a critically ill family member and was talking to the hospital.

Dude chill. When I pulled along side of him, he was starring at the road. If you've been in the forum for awhile, there was a chat in a thread about LA drivers being rather snotty, I was just confirming that, it's true! Everyone is afraid to be friendly and neighborly.

I just saw FWD Royal Blue. It didn't look so good, the Blue was gleaming on the afternoon sun. This is my least favorite color so far seeing on the road.

I saw a Silver or White FWD Tech yesterday. First other one I've seen. I know the dealer I bought mine from has sold other SH-AWD Techs, but I haven't seen them.
