Quality isn't too good, took it with my camera phone than actually had to shrink it to attach.

a parade of

I never posted these because, hey, it's just another CGT. But my boy saw this one at the school parking lot and he snapped a few shots for me.

Hey smartboy, check his location - he's not in LA or SoCal.

Either way.. those cars you saw yesterday in LA may have been heading to or from the weekly gathering at the Village Coffee Roaster in Woodland Hills

Oh.. I don't see the Carrera GT as a big deal any longer. A friend, and soon to be neighbor, of mine has a silver one.
i think SD isn't too bad but it's definitely no match to LA areas. i go to san diego pretty often, i see some exotics, but really not like as often as in LA (my wife sees so many ferrari she doesn't really get that excited anymore)
