You know me all too well. I'm never a happy person at all.

I made an observation about his top being down and his windows up, that's all. I just never understood it. Then you got all bent out of shape about it and defended the driver, like talking on the phone while driving is a justifiable reason.

Yellow Enzo at the used (exotic) car dealership around the corner from my office. Might need to swing back by to get a picture.

Most dealers dont mind people walking in to take pics. My friend does that a lot with the exotic car dealers in NY; just walks in and asks to take pics of the cars. There rarely are any customers in the showroom anyway, so he's not bothering anyone. IIRC last time he got some of the Maserati MC12 and Gumpert Apollo. There may have been an F40 as well, but I dont remember.
