Wow, that's pretty crazy. Odds are it's the same guy. I can count the number of fiats I've seen on the road in the US on one hand. It's hard to believe you'd find someone else in the same car w/ CA plates.

Not hating, but those seem to be a dime a dozen around here.

Like someone lost a couple of trucks of 'em.

The Shelby GT package has always been my favorite looks-wise, vs. the Roush and Shelby.

Aston Martin DBS in downtown LA. I've never heard anything like that off-idle exhaust note, it was a mix of warbling/whooshing at a particular tone ...

Another week of driving around LA:

DONK





I kinda cheated on this one, it's outside the Tesla dealership:



And these last two...this beast was parked right outside of MY HOUSE...I was exiting my garage and bam...best part is if you look closely he got a parking ticket for no front plate

This is nothing special, but he passed me on the autobahn and I just started laughing because of what they call Audi drivers on Top Gear. I had my girlfriend's 1.6L Golf floored (even downhill, the thing would NOT go past 180kph), but could not keep up with him. I was able to snap the pic when the speed slowed to 120kph.

Saw this over the weekend, driven by a fairly good looking older blonde.

Tried to get in front of her to get a picture of the front, but there was too much traffic around, and she figured out that I was fairly gawking at her car.
