This car was in crazy mint condition. He spent about 10 minutes trying to park in that spot there, finally got situated, and then drove away. Well I guess that's how the car is in the shape it's in..

I apologize for the crappy cell phone pic but I was so excited I couldn't stop shaking.

I went down to Chicago to buy my brother in law a 3G TL which was a trade-in at a BMW store downtown. The guy picked us up from the BMW store in a new 7 series and took us to their off site location warehouse. As we are pulling in, I see a Maybach, Rolls Royce convertible and a Lambo Diablo up on a lift. That raised my eyebrow. As we are going up onto the second floor, I see a line of new Maserati's, then a ton of Lamboughgini's and Ferrarri's, then we turn another corner and I see a floor of Bentley's, then we turn a corner and I see this. Must have been 30 Phantom's, Phantom Convertible's and Ghost's.

And that's when my heart dropped.

Sorry for crappy iphone pics. I don't have the luxury of walking around town with a DSLR, don't even own one actually.

My boy's Continental. This was the same one driven by Ice-T in the episode of Ice Loves Coco filmed here in H-town

Hey bud how do you like Nashville? Vanderbilt was one of my final choices for medical school. I heard it's a great program and they treat their students very well. Although I'm from the left coast, I like the south and had a good time visiting my friends at UVA (Pi Beta Phi southern belles FTMFW) and UNC Chapel Hill (great time mountain biking through the fog covered hills). I always wondered how my life would have been different had I gone to Vandy.
